Chapter 538
Leah seemed to have obtained a satisfactory answer, so she remarked, “I see.”
After some small talk, she took her things and left.
Sylvia got a little more rest after that.
There was only a single partition wall separating her office from the next office. At the same time, there
was a lanky figure of a man leaning against the wall. The partition walls were made of wood and were
not exactly known for having good sound insulation. He could overhear the conversation in the
neighboring office just by leaning against the wall.
A brother?
Did she still think of him as nothing more than a brother even till now?
Fast forward to Friday, around evening, Sylvia arrived at the kindergarten on time to pick up the kids.
She led each of them in one hand. Since tomorrow was the weekend, Isabel was skipping along and
seemed very happy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLiam was the exact opposite of her. She trailed behind Sylvia without a word. There was no telling what
was on his mind, and he seemed more like a miniature adult than a child.
“Isabel, Liam, where do you two want to go this weekend?”
Isabel chirped merrily, “Mommy, I want to go to the amusement park!”
Sylvia nodded and turned to Liam who answered without any visible change in expression,” I’ll follow
Isabel.”
The next morning, Sylvia had just finished breakfast and was about to pack up and take the children to
the amusement park when Aunt Tonya slid in through the door and whispered to her, “Sylvia, he’s
here.” Sylvia zipped her lips into a grimace. She suddenly approached Isabel and Liam, smiling meekly
as she informed them, “Isabel, Liam, Mommy suddenly received an invitation to join a certain art
exhibition. Since your Daddy happened to come by, you two can go out with him today instead.”
Isabel pursed her lips and complained, “Mommy, why do you have something suddenly coming up
again?”
Liam fixed a stare on Sylvia with his large eyes that contained a countenance that made him seem
older than he was.

Sylvia blinked a few times and patted their heads. “Mommy didn’t expect it to come up so suddenly
either. Both of
pend time with you tomorrow, alright?” Isabel grunted. “Okay.”
Meanwhile, Liam was silent The pair went out shortly after. Sylvia stood at the door and watched them
leave. When she noticed the tall figure of a man turning toward them, she immediately ducked for cover
and no longer tried to steal a second glance. Outside the gate, Odell got out of the car and was waiting
for Isabel and Liam to come to him.
Isabel was skipping toward him while Liam walked slowly with composure. As soon as they reached
the car, both of them turned back to look at the house in unison.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOdell followed their gaze and looked at the house as well. He barely managed to catch a glimpse of a
figure disappearing around the corner. He pursed his lips and concealed the dark look in his eyes, then
he grabbed Isabel and Liam one after the other and put them into the car. Isabel seemed upset being
carried this way and immediately voiced her complaint upon entering the car, “Baddie, can’t you be
more gentle with us kids?” Odell sat between them and took her into his arms. “Did I hurt you?” “Well,
no.” Isabel pouted, and said with her large eyes beaming, “But can’t you properly carry me and my
brother into the car next time?” Odell shot her a look and grunted. “Alright.” Isabel leaned into his chest
and announced, “We want to go to the amusement park today.” “Alright.”

“And we want ice cream.”
“Sure.”
The father and daughter chatted candidly. As Liam sat quietly beside them, he would dart a glance at
Odell from time to time throughout the drive.
Around evening when the amusement park was closing, Liam and Isabel walked out with Odell. The
girl must have been exhausted from the day’s activity, so she put her chubby hand out toward Odell,
clearly signaling what she wanted. Odell obliged and took her into his arms with one hand. She
burrowed her chubby face into his neck and quickly fell asleep. It did not take long before they returned
to the car.
