Chapter 1263
“Life is simple and good with a good wife and kids. It’s simple and lively.” Odell raised his brows, expressing his
satisfaction and gratitude for the life he currently had.
John smiled. “I envy you.”
Odell smiled. “Everyone has their own life, and maybe I am destined to be happy in this life with the company of my
family.”
“I see…”
Ding!
The ringtone of a phone suddenly chimed, and the two of them turned to Sylvia together.
After she pulled the phone out from her pocket and saw the caller ID, she unconsciously looked toward Odell and
John. Odell’s gaze shifted, while John caught the little interaction and narrowed his eyes.
Sylvia answered the call while holding Flint with one hand. “What’s wrong, Aunt Wanda?”
Aunt Wanda said something on the phone that made her knit her brows together and a nervous expression settled
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇton her face.
However, Sylvia swiftly suppressed her nervousness
when she sensed John’s keen gaze. She feigned a calm tone and said, “Go over with Ben first, and don’t worry. I’m
caught up with something now, but I’ll try to get over there as soon as possible.”
The call ended.
Sylvia did not look at Odell or John but continued to play with the kids as if nothing happened.
“Is there anything that requires your attention, Mrs. Carter?” John asked.
Sylvia answered coldly, “It’s nothing important.”
John smiled. “Who’s Aunt Wanda? I’ve visited so many times, but I haven’t even seen her once.” He looked at Odell,
hoping for an answer.
Odell remained calm as he sipped on his tea. He did not answer John’s question.
Annoyed, Sylvia argued, “What does it have to do with you?”
John kept his smile. “I’m just curious, nothing else.”
Sylvia glared at him and decided to ignore him.
John put the question aside and continued drinking tea with Odell. At the same time, the kids continued playing with
their remote control cars.
Sylvia was watching Flint play, but her brows remained tightly furrowed. She seemed to be bothered by the call
she just received.
When the sky finally turned dark, Flint exhausted all his energy and fell asleep.
Sylvia put Flint in Liam’s care and said to Isabel, “Issy, Mommy is going to Aunt Wanda’s place. Do you want to
come along?”
Liam’s eyes flickered upon hearing his mother. He held his sleeping brother tightly.
Isabel tacitly understood what her mother was trying to imply. She nodded and said, “Yeah, I’ll come along.” She
put the remote control down and got up.
Sylvia held her hand and walked to Odell. “I got Aunt Wanda to buy me some paint for painting, but she couldn’t
handle it alone. I’ll go have a look. Don’t wait for me and Isabel for dinner. We might be late.”
Odell curled his lips. “Yeah, go ahead.“,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSylvia and Isabel headed out immediately and hastened their steps once outside the door.
John watched them leave and asked, “What kind of paint is Mrs. Carter buying that requires that many pairs of
hands to carry?”
Odell answered calmly, “I don’t know. Stuff that she uses for painting, I guess.”
John had another glance at Sylvia and Isabel leaving the
house. He took his phone out and texted, “Sylvia is out with the girl. Follow them and stay low.”
“Who are you texting, Master Stockton?”
John’s gaze shifted. He smiled at Odell and said, “My assistant about some work stuff.”
Odell nodded.
Half a minute later, Odell took his phone out and texted Sylvia, “John might have sent someone to follow you, so be
careful.”
“Who are you texting, Master Carter?”
Odell looked at him and replied, “My assistant about some work stuff.”
