“You... When did you wake up?” She rubbed her eyes, acting as if she had just woken up.

Odell leaned in closer, drawing his handsome face only inches away from hers.

He smiled mischievously at her.

Sylvia made a look and muttered,“You don’t have totell me if you don’t want to.”

“| woke up just a little earlier than you,” he stated.

“Ah.” Sylvia tried to turn away to look the other way.

The moment she turned, Odell grabbed her by her chin and made her turn to face him.

He applied just enough strength so that she could not resist him, but not to a point where it would hurt her.

She stared pointedly at him.

“Is something the matter?” she asked meekly. “Nothing, | just wanted to see your face.”

He observed her like she was a curious experiment subject.

There was no longer the same look of hostility on his face. He seemed considerably more pleasant than when he was talking to

Lily.

Sylvia endured his gaze and suddenly smiled.

She flashed such a brilliant smile that her eyes curved into the shape of a half-crescent moon. She smiled until she revealed a

row of speckless, shining teeth underneath her lips.

Odell narrowed his eyes.

After taking in the sight of her smile, he smiled as well and asked her suspiciously,"What’s so funny?”

“| heard everything,” Sylvia answered.

She dropped the act. She figured that he must have put two and two together and knew that she had been awake the entire

time.

Odell leaned in closer and kissed her.

After he had enough of kissing her, Sylvia slowly whispered,” Odell, don’t you think you're a little too cruel with Miss Lily? | have

a feeling that she might have a thing for you.”

Odell made a look. “Do you want me to fix things with her?”

Sylvia changed her mind. “Well, that won’t be necessary.”

Odell playfully scoffed and pinched her face. “You should worry about yourself first before worrying about others.”

Sylvia snickered and nodded.

Meanwhile, Lily bolted out of the hospital and went back to her car in the parkinglot.

Apart from the driver, Madam Springsteen was also inside the car.

Upon noticing her red-eyed and visibly agitated appearance, Madam Springsteen asked anxiously, “Lily, what's wrong? Was it

that wretched woman?”

Lily gnashed her teeth. “I didn’t see her.”

“Then what made you run out so quickly? What made you end up like this?”

“| met Master Carter. He wants to tell Grandpa about the truth behind our engagement. He also wants me to pass a message to

you. He says that you should stop bothering Sylvia from here on!”

“What? Are you sure that b*tch didn’t hypnotize him with some kind of drug?”

“He also said...”

“What else did he say?”

Lily gnashed her teeth angrily and said,”| asked him if he was going to help his brother raise the child, to which he immediately

responded by saying that if | ever said something like that again, he’d make sure that it will be the end of our family!”

Madam Springsteen's face darkened. “How could he say such a thing? He must take you for a joke. I'll have a word with him

right away!”

With that, she prepared to step out of the car.

Lily managed to grab her just in time. “Grandma, maybe it’s my fault. | shouldn’t have said something like that to him to begin

with.”

“Everything you said is true. Isn’t he going to tell your grandfather everything just so that he could be together with that wretched

woman? It’s Thomas’ boy that she gave birth to. Why would he bear the responsibility of looking after his brother’s son?”

Lily lowered her head and whispered as if she was disclosing a dark secret, “He told me that Sylvia’s baby was his.”
