Chapter 1385

If he had not snuck into the chat group and had been watching her movements, they would have had zero contact in the past 24

days.

Sylvia averted his gaze. “You are the one who scolded me until | had to leave.”

“| know | was wrong,” he said with a softer tone. He then hugged her into his arms and whispered in her ears, “But there was not

one day that I did not miss you.

He could not even sleep at night.

Sylvia’s gaze froze. All the annoyance and grief that had been piling up in her suddenly disappeared.

Odell hugged her tightly. “Spend two days with me, then we go home. Okay?”

Sylvia shyly said, “Okay, but...”

“But?”

“l want to see if | have recovered from the fever.”

If she still had a fever, she might not be able to go to many of the tourist spots.

Odell smiled. “It’s gone. | checked when you were almost awake just now. 36.6° Celcius. You're all good now.”

Sylvia hummed a reply. She suddenly felt something strange and looked at him.

If he checked her temperature when she was still asleep, then he must have known that she had recovered when she had the

phone call with Isabel. If she knew she had recovered then, she would certainly have told Isabel that she was going back.

He had done it on purpose! He only revealed to her that she had recovered after she agreed to go back in two days. She glared

at him.

Odell pursed his thin lips and looked at her with a soft gaze.

Sylvia choked on her grievance.

After all they had been through, they married each other twice and managed to make it this far into the marriage.

She exhaled. “Fine.”

Odell curled his lips and kissed her on the lips.

Back at the Old District in Westchester, the sky had just darkened, but the person who had been hiding behind the tree near the

Carters’ residence finally came out.

She lowered her cap and headed towards the house. It has been two days since Odell went to the office, so he must be at

home.

She wanted to confront him again. She still refused to believe that he had no feelings for her. He must have rejected her because

Ruth had sent her to spy on him, hence the cold shoulder.

Just when she was about to reach the entrance, a buff man came up to her. “Who are you? What are you doing here? You've

been hiding there for the entire afternoon.”

Shocked, Shermaine looked up at him.

“Shermaine?” Jacob recognized her at first glance. His expression turned cold. “What are you doing here?”

Shermaine ran without a second thought.

Just when Jacob wanted to go after her, an expensive MPV stopped in front of him. He did not recognize the car, hence he had a

cautious gaze.

Soon, a young woman came out.

Dressed in black boots and a crimson red trench coat, woman came down from the car with wavy hair that was complemented

by big glasses. Although it was a loose trench coat, it did not conceal her unusual aura and voluptuous figure.

Jacob was stunned. “Who are you?”

“Jacob, it has only been two years and you can’t recognize me anymore?” The woman removed the glasses and smiled

mischievously at him.

Jacob’s eyes widened. “Ms. Fowler?!”

“Yeah.” Sherry shoved her bangs to the side and asked, ” Is Syl here?”

Jacob immediately put on his most welcoming smile and said, “It’s really unfortunate. Madam is currently away on a vacation,

and sir just went to see her yesterday. Both of them are not around.”

Curious, Sherry asked, “Why the sudden vacation?”

She contacted Sylvia twice recently and did not hear anything about her friend talking about a vacation. Jacob awkwardly

smiled. “It’s a long story.”
