Chapter 207

Chapter 207 Since children tended to be more forgetful, Sylvia quickly switched the subject to other

matters to divert Isabel and Liam‘s attention.

They emerged from the tent after some time.

Odell was sitting on the chair outside with a long, dark coat over him. He wore a sharp expression with

an air of superiority around him.

It was a complete departure from the person who had just forced himself on her and threatened Sylvia

just now. Sylvia cast a pointed look at his figure from the back. Odell just happened to turn around to

catch her gaze. Her eyes gleamed and she quickly withdrew her gaze. Odell gave her a harsh stare and

ordered, “Pack up and get ready to go home.”

Sylvia ignored him, and so did Isabel and Liam.

Odell turned to the bodyguards Ben and Jacob who quickly sprang to action and began putting away the

tent.

The car ride home was completely silent.

Three hours later, they stopped outside the gates of the Carters‘ residence.

After getting down from the car, the first thing Liam and Isabel did was run to Sylvia. They were reluctant

to see her go. Sylvia looked at Odell and wondered if she could convince him to let her stay with the kids

for a while. However, Odell wore a face full of contempt as if the mere sight of her offended him, so she

immediately dismissed the idea.

She turned to Liam and Isabel with a smile, “Isabel, Liam, you two go catch some rest first. Mommy will

come to see you again at night.” Isabel chirped, “Okay.” Liam answered, “Mommy, you get some rest at

home too.” Sylvia smiled warmly. “I will.” After that, she kissed their little faces in turn. Isabel and Liam

return a peck on her cheek as well, then they turned around and entered the house. Upon ensuring they

were home, Sylvia turned to leave. “Stop.” Odell‘s deep, raspy voice stopped her.

Sylvia cast a look back at him and asked him in a curious tone, “Do you need something?” He strode

towards her and stopped right in front of her to glare at her harshly, “Don‘t you try to spit on me again. I‘ll

yank your head off.”

Sylvia took a step backward and struck back, “As long as you keep a respectable distance from me in

the future, I promise I won‘t have to spit on you again.”

Spitting on him was a waste of her saliva!

Odell scoffed with scorn, “Don‘t think so highly of yourself, I‘m not interested in a woman like you.” Sylvia

smiled and quipped, “What a coincidence, I‘m not interested in a man like you either.” With that, she

turned and went back home. Odell‘s figure was fixed to the same spot. His complexion darkened just like

the skies above did. It was something about her arrogance mixed with some element unique to her that

upset him so much. It made him want to drag her back here and teach her a good lesson! At the same

time, the scene from earlier today when he pressed himself against her kept repeating in his mind. She

had been right in front of him. Even now, he could feel the softness of her body. This woman was clearly

trying to seduce him! Without realizing it, he found himself marching toward Sylvia.

He was very quick. Sylvia had just reached the intersection when he appeared behind her. He grabbed

her by the back of the collar of her first and pulled her into his arms in one swift movement. Then, he

palmed her face in his hands and planted his lips on hers.

There was a soft, chilly breeze blowing. Sylvia stiffened, her body no longer hers.
