Chapter 254 Odell‘s expression darkened as soon as Tara spoke. “Edmund is also here?” he asked in
a cold voice. Tara‘s eyes flickered, but she pretended to be ignorant and said, “Edmund? Is that the
man we saw last time at the Elysian House?
Odell pursed his lips coldly. Tara looked at his face and continued to play dumb, saying, “He also came
yesterday afternoon and laughed and chatted with Sylviå. It seems they went out for dinner together
after the event as well.” Odell‘s hand clenched at his sides. ‘No wonder she came to see the children
when it was past 8 p.m. It‘s because she went out for dinner with Edmund!‘
“Sylvia has been single for many years, so I think Edmund and her are for real this time. It’s really
possible that they’re together,” Tara spoke absentmindedly and then looked at his horribly stony face.

pursed his lips and restrained the coldness in his eyes. He replied, “I‘m fine.” Then, he walked past
Sylvia‘s painting and went to the other side. Tara secretly looked at his face and said nothing. After
walking for a while, they saw Sylvia and Edmund. Odell stopped. Tara followed him closely and also
stopped. Sylvia did not notice them and continued talking to Edmund. Edmund was pointing at a
painting and asked, “What‘s that little thing in this painting? Is it a cricket?”
Sylvia was amused and said with a smile, “I think it’s a small fish, but I‘m not very knowledgeable about
this painting.” They continued to walk forward as they joked.
Soon, Sylvia saw Odell standing less than three meters directly in front of her. The long black coat
outlined his straight posture, and he looked at her with cold eyes.
Sylvia was startled and went pale.
“Sylvia, what a coincidence,” Tara said with a smile while holding onto Odell.
Sylvia‘s eyes flickered as she said nothing. Odell said coldly, “Don‘t you hear Tara talking to you?”
Just as Sylvia was about to say something, Edmund suddenly stopped forward behind her and stood in
front of her. He looked at Odell with a smirk. “Master Carter, it‘s Lil Syl‘s business if she wants to ignore
Tara. Isn‘t it inappropriate for you to lecture her like this?”
‘Lil Syl?‘ Odell‘s eyes turned cold. He glanced at Sylvia and then said to Edmund, “That‘s between us.
It‘s none of your business.” Edmund chuckled and raised a hand to put on Sylvia‘s shoulder. “Lil Syl is
my friend. Her business is my business.” Odell looked at his hand on Sylvia‘s shoulder and reminded
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhim in a cold voice, “Edmund, you‘d better not mess with me.” “Of course, I won‘t dare to provoke
someone like you, but Lil Syl is my friend. Anyone who dares to bully my friend means that they don‘t
have any respect for me. In that case, I‘ll throw caution to the wind and never let them go!” The corners
of Odell‘s lips turned down coldly. “Is that so?” So, a gangster wanted to fight with him. Edmund smiled.
“Yeah.” The already cold air suddenly became tense. Sylvia had a bad feeling and hurriedly took
Edmund‘s hand, saying softly, “Stop it.” Edmund looked at Tara beside Odell. He narrowed his eyes at
her and said, “This lady looks familiar. Have we met somewhere?” Tara‘s expression changed as she
quickly said, “You‘re mistaken. We don‘t know each other.” Then, she took Odell‘s arm and said with a
pleading tone, “Let‘s not stay here and go somewhere else, Odell.”
She then pulled him away.
Odell shot Sylvia a cold look and left with Tara.
Sylvia‘s face paled at his frigid gaze. Edmund looked down and immediately saw her uneasy
expression. He said, “Don‘t be scared, Lil Syl. I‘ll protect you. I‘ll make sure that he can‘t hurt you.”
