Chapter 767

Thinking about what happened at noon in Paulonia Hotel, Sylvia immediately looked at Odell while she, clenched her hands

uncontrollably.

Skylar’s eyes flickered, and she looked at Odell. “Master Carter, I'd like to talk to Ms. Ross alone. Can you step outside for a

while?”

Odell looked at Sylvia. She did not dare to meet his eyes and lowered her head.

He frowned, then got up and walked out of the cafe.

The moment his tall figure left, Sylvia lifted her head and sighed in relief.

Skylar smiled. “Ms. Ross, can you tell me now?”

Sylvia frowned. ‘If | tell her, will she tell Odell?’

Skylar added, “Don’t worry, Ms. Ross. What you tell me is a secret between us. | promise you that | won’t tell anyone about it.”

Sylvia’s expression relaxed, and she said, “I was indeed in a bad mood today, but | didn’t want to do it. | just couldn’t control

myself.”

“Does this usually happen when you're in a bad mood?”

“No.”

“When’s the last time you hurt yourself?”

Sylvia’s gaze darkened as she looked at her arm that was covered by her sleeve and replied, “Two months ago.”

“Was it also because you were in a bad mood?”

“Yeah.”

“Can you tell me why you were in a bad mood at that time?”

Sylvia frowned.

Skylar asked gently, “Was it also a situation like today?”

Sylvia shook her head. “No.”

“Where were you then?”

“At Galston.”

Skylar’s gaze flickered, and she asked, “Can you show me the scars from last time?”

Sylvia hesitated for two seconds, then lifted her sleeves and showed her the scars on both arms.

Skylar sighed and said, “You must have been in a very bad mood at that time.”

Sylvia did not speak. She could not remember much about the incident at that time. She only remembered that she could not

control herself. It was as if she would go insane at any moment.

However, that was all in the past. She was back here now, where her friends, children, and the people she missed every day and

night were. As long as she did not go back, everything would be fine.

Skylar saw her expression and asked, “Why did you want to return to Westchester?”

Sylvia immediately answered, “I miss my children. | came back to see them.”

“You must love your children very much.”

Thinking of Isabel and Liam’s cute little faces, Sylvia could not help but smile. “Yes, | love them very much.”

They continued like that with Skylar asking questions, and Sylvia answering them.

Skylar did not pursue anything Sylvia did not want to answer but asked about her daily life instead.

Sylvia unknowingly let down her guard and chatted idly with her. When her mouth was dry, she came back to her senses and

poured herself another cup of tea. “Thank you for chatting with me, Skylar. | feel much better now.” Sylvia smiled at her while

drinking her tea. Skylar smiled back at her. “You're welcome. If you really want to thank someone , then thank Master Carter.

He's the one who called me over.”

Sylvia pursed her lips and did not say anything.

“Ms. Ross, there are many people facing psychological pressure in this era, so you don’t have to be ashamed about anything. |

can feel that you're trying to get better, and | believe that you'll soon be healthy again.” Skylar stood up and handed over a

business card. “This is my contact number. You can call me if you need anything.”

Sylvia stood up to accept the card and said with a smile,” Okay, thank you.”

“Don’t mention it. See you.”

Sylvia walked her to the door of the cafe.

Odell’s tall figure was standing not far from the door.

When Skylar went out, she waved at him and said, “I’ve finished chatting with Ms. Ross, so I'll leave now.”

Odell looked at Sylvia, who followed her out, and hummed. “Okay.”
