Tristan’s expression darkened.

After Sylvia walked away, he bowed his head in despair.

Tristan did not move.

After a while, he looked up at Bruce and Catherine. His usually warm and clear eyes were now tinged

with a red light. He said, “Are you satisfied now? She’ll never accept me again.”

Bruce and Catherine froze.

After a while, Catherine said softly, “We were wrong, Tristan. Let’s go home first. We’ll talk about it when

we get back.”

Tristan ignored her, turned around, and walked toward the road. His head was bowed, and his back

looked very forlorn in the setting sun. Bruce and Catherine were worried and immediately chased after

him.

At that moment, in a luxury sports car in a parking lot not far away, Odell sat in the driver’s seat with a

cigarette in his hand.

The window was wound halfway down. His deep gaze looked at Tristan’s distant figure, then at the

direction in which Sylvia left. He took a drag of the cigarette. White smoke spilled out from his lips and

rose up to mingle in the air, obscuring his face. The car was quiet for a long time.

Tara sat in the passenger seat. When she looked in the direction he was watching, her gaze turned

panicked.

After a long time, when Bruce and Catherine took Tristan away, and Sylvia and Sherry’s car also left, she

finally said, “Let’s go back, Odell.”

Odell withdrew his gaze, put out the cigarette, threw it away, and started the car.

The car quickly drove into the traffic, headed in the direction of Lake Victoria Villa.

Not long after, he said, “I still have some matters to attend to in the evening. I won’t accompany you for

dinner later.”

His voice was cold.

Tara’s face paled. After being with him for so many years, she more or less understood him.

‘He only says he has something to do because he doesn’t want to accompany me. Is it because I

humiliated him by falling off the stage in public today? Or was it because that b*tch, Sylvia, was too eye-

catching? ‘Or, did he think of something else? Mr. and Mrs. Ledger obviously already believe that Sylvia

Tara did not dare to ask and could only reply softly, “Okay.”

Sherry soon took Sylvia back to her own home.

Not long after she came back, Aunt Tonya was sent back in a car. Sylvia waited for her at the door and

was instantly relieved to see her in one piece. Aunt Tonya also ran up to her. When she saw Sylvia sitting

in a wheelchair, her eyes reddened and she asked in tears, “Syl, what happened to your leg?” Sylvia

replied with a smile, “I’m fine. I just accidentally injured my legs two days ago. It’s just a slight fracture.

The doctor said it’ll heal after a while.” “Really? Was it really just a fracture?”

Sylvia smiled. “Yes, really. Why would I lie to you?”

Aunt Tonya sighed in relief, then asked her anxiously, “Syl, did they force you to do anything in the few

days that they took me away?” Aunt Tonya would not believe her if she said no, so she confessed, “They

wanted to force me to marry someone, but they didn’t succeed.” “That’s good.” Aunt Tonya sighed again.

“It’s all my fault. I’m old and useless. I must have made you anxious these few days.” Sylvia immediately

frowned. “Aunt Tonya, this isn’t your fault. Don’t blame yourself.”

‘If it weren’t for me, Aunt Tonya wouldn’t have been kidnapped. However, the real people to blame

should be the ones who plotted to kidnap her: Emmanuel, Dona, Sonia, Bruce, Catherine, Michael, and

Tara. I’ll remember all of these people!’

When Aunt Tonya saw her expression grow colder and colder, she hurriedly said, “Okay, okay, I won’t

blame myself. Don’t get angry. It’s bad for your health.” Sylvia pulled herself from her thoughts and

asked, “Aunt Tonya, did they do anything to you these past few days?” “No. I was locked up in a

basement one day, then I was taken to a house. They never laid a hand on me and also brought me food

regularly. They just locked the doors and windows tightly so that I couldn’t escape.” Aunt Tonya pushed

Sylvia into the house as she spoke and began to question Sylvia if she had encountered anything in the

past few days.

Sylvia chose her words carefully as she answered.

Aunt Tonya was a person who could not stay idle. When she saw that the house was covered with dust,

she finished speaking with Sylvia and insisted on cleaning it. Sylvia could not stop her, so she chatted

with Sherry in the living room.

bodyguard?”

She could not let Aunt Tonya be kidnapped again.

Sherry immediately said, “No problem. Leave it to me.”

At night, after eating dinner, Sherry left.

Aunt Tonya was tidying up in the living room. Sylvia could not help, so she took the binoculars and

pushed her wheelchair outside to the courtyard.

She had not been at home these two days, so the two little ones must have been anxious. She

wondered if they would be waiting for her on the large terrace tonight. After coming to the courtyard, she

raised the binoculars and looked in the direction of the old Carter mansion.

Sylvia saw the scene on the large terrace at once, and her gaze was startled.

Odell’s tall figure sat on the sofa on the terrace. He held Isabel’s head in an armlock and played with the

pink binoculars that Liam usually used in one hand. Meanwhile, his other hand pressed Liam’s small

head down beside him.

He seemed to sense that Sylvia was looking over.

He quickly put the binoculars in front of his eyes.
