Chapter 266
Half an hour later, the sports car screeched to a stop in front of Sylvia’s house.
Sylvia reached out to the handle and tried to get off, but the door remained locked, so she could not
open it. Odell’s deep voice then sounded in her ears. “Mark my words. If I find you seeing Edmund
again, you will comprehend the consequences.” As his voice subsided, the door was unlocked. Sylvia
simply ran out of the car without giving him a reply.
Then, she saw her own car parked in front of the yard. She had driven it to Cloudy Heart Lake earlier,
and it seemed like after Odell abducted her, his men had driven it back.
She only had one glance at the car before she ran into the house and locked the door tightly. Back in
the sports car, Odell finally averted his gaze after Sylvia slammed the door shut. He had a glance at the
rearview mirror. He spotted some blood stains on his lower lips, where Sylvia had bitten him earlier.

and left.
At Lake Victoria Villa, Tara was staring at her phone with a pale look.
Ever since her first call to Odell was hung up one-sidedly, she had been trying to reach him, but all she
got was the cold monotonous voice, telling her the number she dialed was not available. She had a
glance at Edmund who was sitting on the couch further away. Then, she gave it another try and dialed
Odell’s number. This time, the call finally got through after a few seconds. Tara’s eyes gleamed in
delight. She asked, “Odell, what are you doing? Why didn’t you answer the phone?”
On the other end of the call, Odell had just come out from the shower. He was rubbing his hair dry as
he said, “I had something to do just now, so I turned off my phone. What is it?”
He sounded normal as usual.
Tara also feigned ignorance and said with a smile, “Oh, it’s nothing. I just miss you.” “Mm-hmm. Go
rest.” Odell wanted to hang up, but Tara spoke before he could tap the red button.
“Odell, are you still busy?”
“Not now.”
“Where are you now? At home? Or at the office?”
“At home.”
Tara’s eyes showed signs of relief. With her smile still on her face, she continued, “Odell, can you have
dinner with me tomorrow? We haven’t seen each other in two days.”
A quick thought later, Odell said, “Of course.”
The call then ended. Tara’s face fell as she put her phone away.
Further away, Edmund took a puff from his cigarette and spat a cloud of smoke from his mouth. He
asked her, “Has Odell gone home?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“He’s home now.” Tara held back her disgust for him and forced a smile on her face. “Master Price, it’s
late now. I want to rest. May I ask you to leave?”
Edmund grinned at her. “Don’t be such a killjoy. I still have something to say.”
Tara looked at the man’s gangster-like demeanor and mustered up whatever patience she had left.
“What else do you want to talk about?”
“You introduce Syl to me because you are afraid that she might get back together with Odell and ruin
your relationship, am I right?” Tara wore an evasive look. She maintained her vague smile and said, “I
thought that Sylvia is your type, so I just wanted to connect the dots. You are thinking too much.” “Fine.
You don’t need to explain anymore. I’m not Odell Carter. You won’t fool me with your lousy tricks.”
Edmund flicked the cigarette bud and bolted up.
Staring at Tara’s restless face, he said with a cold grin, “Don’t worry. I simply wanted to remind you of
the situation. If you don’t want Odell to find out what you have done in the past, keep an eye on him,
and don’t let him go back to Syl.” Tara secretly clutched her fists. She answered, “Don’t worry. Odell
only loves me. Even if he took Sylvia away, I’m sure he’s just bewitched by her spell. He will never
abandon me because of that woman.” “Well, that’s great if it’s true.” Edmund scornfully grinned before
he went out. Ned, Harry, and Lloyd also followed him out of the house.
