Chapter 762
Some ogled, some watched indifferently, and some held disgust.
At the front table, Ramona’s face was full of contempt and anger.
Mrs. Springsteen laughed condescendingly and looked
away as if she felt dirty just looking at Sylvia.
Lily’s composure was elegant, but the corners of her lips could not hide a contemptuous smile. 1
The man who was surrounded by several people who wanted to toast him suddenly stood up. It
seemed like he could not believe that it was her. His handsome face sunk the moment he saw her. His
dark eyes were instantly filled with anger.
Sylvia’s skin tingled, and her body was so cold that she shivered.
After freezing for a second, she forcefully pushed away Sonia, who was still trying to cause her trouble,
and ran outside the banquet hall as fast as she could. She did not even care about supporting her belly
as she dashed outside. All she wanted was to get out of here and disappear from this world!
She ran out of Paulonia Hotel’s entrance to the road and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtonly stopped when she saw a cab.
Shivering, she got into the car and ordered the driver,” Drive. Hurry up and drive!”
The driver was an older man who asked her nicely, “Miss, you haven’t told me where you’re going.”
Sylvia’s mind was in a mess, so she said directly, “Back home.”
The driver was speechless. “Where’s your home?”
“A-at No. 36, XX Street.”
“Is it near the Art Academy?” “Yes, yes! Hurry up and take me there!” she shouted anxiously.
“Okay, calm down. I’ll send you there now.” The driver started the car.
Half an hour later, the cab stopped in front of Sylvia’s residence.
She got out of the car, shrunk into a ball and looked left and right, and only ran to her house when she
did not see anyone else on the road.
She bolted the gate, the front door, and her bedroom door before crawling into her bed. Then, she
wrapped the quilt around her liquor-covered body and sat on the bed like she was a cocoon.
At that moment, the cab that brought her back made a turn and was heading back.
The driver turned the steering wheel and could not help but mutter, “Did that lady suffer some kind of
fright?”
In Paulonia Hotel, not long after Sylvia ran out, Odell also left his seat.
However, after he took a few steps, Ramona stopped him. She quickly said, “Odell, my birthday party
isn’t over yet. Where are you going?” Odell frowned coldly and looked at her with a gloomy gaze. “I
have something urgent to attend to. Please excuse me, Aunt Ramona.” Ramona, who had never seen
him look so scary, was so frightened that she took a step to the side.
Odell walked past her.
Seeing this, Lily hurriedly followed him. “Master Carter, do you need me to accompany you?” “No.” His
voice was as cold as his expression.
Lily frowned and stopped walking. Not long after, his tall figure walked out of the banquet hall.
The hall was still silent at that moment. All the guests
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhad not yet recovered from the scene where Sylvia turned into a waiter, got slapped by Sonia, and was
smashed into a table full of wine.
After Odell left, their eyes turned to Ramona and Lily. After all, Ramona was the main character of
today’s event, and Lily was Odell’s current fiance.
Ramona was so angry that her face turned ashen.
Madam Springsteen was also rather enraged, but now was not the time for that. She said helplessly,
“Don’t be upset, Ramona. Today is your birthday, so you should be happy instead. It’s not worth getting
angry because of an ignorant person like that.” Ramona came back to her senses and sigh. “You’re
right. That kind of person is not worth it.”
Then, she said to Lily, “Don’t overthink it, Lily. Odell must be angry at her because she ruined my party
and went to get even with her.”
Lily composed her expression and quickly answered, “I know, Aunt Ramona. I won’t overthink it. You
should sit down.”
Ramona sighed and pulled Madam Springsteen to sit down together. Before long, the atmosphere in
the banquet hall regained its lively buzz, but many people were still talking about Sylvia’s sudden
appearance.
Lily listened to the chatter coming from time to time, and her lips held an imperceptible but constant
curl.
