Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 656
The group of bodyguards all stared coldly at Thomas.
Upon hearing Sylviaâs words, Jacobâs expression eased, and he said, âMadam, we're here on Master Carter's orders to request
Second Master Carter to come with us.â
âIs this how you make a request with others? Itâs clear that youâre here to arrest him.â
She asked directly, âWhat does he want with Thomas?â
âWe're not sure. We're just following orders.â Jacob looked at Thomas and said politely,â Second Master Carter, the show is over.
Master Carter has sorted out the mess at Carter Corporation. The people under your instruction have all been dealt with by
Master Carter. Please come with us.â
Thomas's gaze flickered, and he said after a moment, âI donât understand what you're talking about.â
Jacob maintained his polite tone. âThatâs fine. You'll understand if you come with us.â Thomas looked around. In addition to
Jacob and Ben, there were dozens of bodyguards. Then, he restrained the cold light in his eyes, looked at Sylvia, and said softly,
âMaybe Odell needs me for something. Donât worry. I'll go and come back soon.â
After saying that, he let go of her.
Sylviaâs mind was in turmoil right now. âWasnât Odell about to be kicked out of Carter Corporation? Why did Jacob say that heâs
dealt with the mess at Carter Corporation? Also, why is he suddenly sending his men to take Thomas away?â She immediately
grabbed one of his hands. âI'll go with you.â Thomasâs eyes flickered. He raised his hand to rub her head and pulled her hand
away. âDonât worry. Odell wonât do anything to me.â
Sylvia frowned.
After he spoke, he walked over to Jacob and Ben.
Several bodyguards instantly surrounded him. Sylvia wanted to follow them but was stopped by Ben. She glared at him.
However, he merely smiled politely at her.
She could only watch as Thomas was taken into the woods by Jacob and the others. Soon, their figures disappeared.
Her expression turned cold as she looked at Ben again. âCan you let go of me now?â
Ben looked behind her and then withdrew his arm in front of her. She immediately wanted to go forward and catch up to Thomas.
Unexpectedly, she heard the sound of whirring from behind her.
She hurriedly turned around to look.
To her horror, she saw dozens of large bulldozers driving from all sides of the sea of sunflowers, running the flowers over. The
sunflowers that were flattened underneath were all crushed into the mud without exception.
Ablack sports car also drove toward her at this time, its wheels squashing the bright sunflowers. Sylvia's chest tightened, and
her legs filled with lead. She could not move at all.
Screech!
The black sports car stopped steadily a few feet in front of her. Then, a tall figure came down from the car. His black suit
emphasized his straight and upright posture that was like a devil from hell, and a terrifying and murderous aura surrounded him.
He reached her in two or three steps.
Sylviaâs pupils shrank, and she subconsciously took a step back. The bulldozers were still operating, tearing down the sea of
sunflowers patch by patch. She looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar and dreadful man in front of her and asked with a frown,
âOdell, did you bring these bulldozers here?â Odell looked at her angsty face and raised his brows with an affirmative hum. That
short sound was cold and arrogant. Sylvia was instantly furious. âTell them to stop!â He hooked his finger at her. âCome here.â
Her expression was wary, and she stood without moving.
