Chapter 900

Chapter 900

Inside the security room of Carter Tower, the atmosphere was tenser than usual, and the pressure was suffocating.

Odell went straight to the security room as soon as he returned. Bowman was also there.

The security guards showed them the surveillance footage from all the cameras and repeated it multiple times.

Bowman went back and forth to make calls and arrange his men for further investigation, but until dark, there was no clue about

Sylvia

Lily’s car disappeared into thin air.

It was then Bowman received a call.

He came back to the security room after the call and looked at Odell with a heavy look. “Sir, my men said Ms. Springsteen’s car

last appeared on the road in the suburbs. My men are scouring the place as we speak.

“We have also set up blockades at every single exit of the city and we haven't spotted Thomas or Ms. Springsteen’s car. I’m sure

Thomas is still within the city and he’s hiding in the suburbs. Why don’t you go home and have a rest first? I’ll contact you

immediately once we get something.”

Odell sat in front of the monitor. His deep eyes stared at Sylvia's figure as she entered Lily’s car. He pursed his lips in silence and

turned a deaf ear at Bowman’s suggestion.

Bowman sighed and went out of the room.

Cliff and the other security guards stayed but neither of them dared to make a noise.

The silence was broken when Odell’s phone rang.

He pulled it out from his pocket, saw the caller ID, and answered

cD

Since the security room was quiet, the others were able to hear Isabel’s adorable voice from the phone.

“Big Baddie, why aren’t you back with Mommy yet? Are you two still arguing?”

Odell frowned as if he was suppressing his anger. He remained quiet for a moment before he said, “We've reconciled but we’re

not going home tonight. You and Liam go to sleep first with your little brother.”

“Are you telling the truth?”

“Mhmm...”

“But you don’t sound happy.”

Odell shut his eyes. “I’m busy at work for the whole day, I’m a little tired.”

“Where’s Mommy? Why is her phone off?”

“Mommy's phone ran out of battery. She’s already asleep.”

“Oh, okay. Okay. Good night.”

“Mhmmm...”

The call ended.

He stared at the monitor as he wore a frosty look on his handsome face.

“Is there any news from the private investigator?” he asked.

Cliff answered in a small voice, “Nothing yet, sir.”

“Are they all useless?”

Slam!

He shoved some of the items on the table to the floor.

Cliff and the security guards were startled.

Odell bolted up and turned to them with a grim look. “Add in a 100 million bounty. As long as anyone can locate Sylvia, I'll

transfer the money into their bank account immediately.”

“Yes, sir. I’m on it!” Cliff nodded and ran out.

The security guards were left alone in the room as Odell walked out.

The air outside was fresher than during the day but it felt humid.

Odell loosened his collar and started smoking a cigarette.

The white smoke swirled in the air as he exhaled.

He finished the cigarette in minutes and went on to the second one.

“Master Carter, I'm sure Ms. Ross is going to be okay.”

It was then Lily approached him and tried to console him.

Lily stayed back since Thomas took Sylvia away.

She was there when Odell returned to the company.

However, Odell was not in the mood to talk to her. He looked angrier than ever before and it scared her. She dared not even

further the conversation and it made her regret helping Thomas abduct Sylvia.
