Odell walked in.

Sylvia’s back was turned to him. When she sensed him approach her, she asked, “Can you help me with the zip?”

The man was silent for a moment and raised his hand to tug the zipper on her back. His warm fingertips brushed against her

skin, and Sylvia’s nerves inexplicably tingled, making her back go numb.

Before she could snap back to her senses, a loud rip rung out.

Her chest instantly felt tight, and she almost could not catch her breath. She turned her head and glared at him. “Who told you to

pull it up?”

The man raised his brows slightly, his deep eyes looking at her bulging chest.

“Didn’t you want me to zip you up?” he asked instead, his voice low and magnetic.

Sylvia instantly noticed something wrong and looked at him with a blush. “Stop looking. Hurry up and undo my zipper. This dress

is too tight. | have to change into another one.”

Then, she turned her back to him again.

However, the next second, the man’s arms circled around her waist and pulled her into his chest. His hot breath came from

above her, brushing against her neck.

Sylvia’s body went numb as she struggled. “Odell, we still have to go out shopping. Hurry up and undo the zipper. I-”

Before she could finish, he pressed her against the wall.

An unknown amount of time passed.

It was only when the sun was almost overhead that the movements in the room calmed down.

Sylvia’s dress was not only unzipped but it was also ripped into two on the ground along with his shirt. She lay naked in his arms,

glaring at him.

Odell lowered his head and kissed her rosy cheeks. “It’s getting late. Hurry up and go change.”

He spoke as if she was the one who delayed the time.

Sylvia ignored him, got out of bed, and went straight to the closet to select a loose white dress. It was an A-line dress. It was not

form-fitting, but it was very classy.

The weather outside was hot. After putting on makeup, she took a sunhat and walked out of the closet.

The man was standing outside waiting for her.

Unlike the dissatisfied look he had on the bed when she went into the cloakroom, he had already changed into a suit. His figure

was tall and straight, and his handsome face carried an aura of indifference hanging over him.

If he had not looked at Sylvia’s chest at that moment, she might have forgotten that he had just carried her to bed and ravaged

her dress earlier.

She could not help but glare at him. “Odell Carter!”

‘Will you stop staring at my chest? Can’t you act like a gentleman?’

Odell curled his lips. “This dress is pretty nice.”

Sylvia ignored him.

He took one of her hands and led her outside while asking,” Where do you want to go shopping later?”

“Anywhere works.”

Soon, they went downstairs to the living room where Aunt Tonya, Wanda, and Flora, who were sitting around Flint, stopped

talking and looked at them.

Liam, who was reading a book, and Isabel, who was watching a

TV drama, also raised their heads in unison to look at them.

“Mommy, Baddie, what took you so long?” Isabel asked in confusion.

Sylvia’s cheeks heated up at their gazes. Just as she was wondering how to explain it to him, the man beside her said,” We got

sidetracked.”

His voice was low as usual, and his face was serious as if the man who had just been staring at her chest in the room earlier was

not him.

Fortunately, his words managed to fool the two children.

Isabel urged them, “Hurry up and go on your date. It’s going to be dark soon.”

Aunt Tonya, Wanda, and Flora chuckled. “Syl, we'll take care of Flint, so don’t worry about coming back late.”

Sylvia hummed with a red face as Odell led her out.

Outside, the sun was shining brightly, and the temperature was very warm.
