Chapter 264

His intimidating pressure enveloped her whole. Sylvia was pinned to her wall. Her hands were

sandwiched between her chest, and no matter how she tried, she failed to gain enough strength to break

free.

She was forced to obey and could not resist him at all. A while had passed, and only then did he free her

lips. Sylvia gasped strongly for a mouthful of air. She then pushed him away and shouted, “Why did you

bring me here?! Let me go!” She gave her fullest in pushing him away, but his mountain-like figure did

not budge at all. Sylvia almost ran out of options. The last resort was to sneak out under his arm, but he

grabbed her waist and hugged her tightly to his chest, so her face was pressed against his broad chest.

Things started to get steamy. She looked up at him, but due to the dark surroundings, she was denied a

clear look at his face. Odell finally spoke, “Can’t remember what I said?”

The threat between the lines gave her chills.

Sylvia shrunk a little and asked out of confusion, “What? What did you say?”

He did not answer. Instead, he said, “Then, I will make you remember.” He lowered his head again and

pressed his lips precisely on hers. Sylvia could not breathe properly due to the force and difference in

their strength. Just when she was about to suffocate, he released her.

Sylvia gasped a few mouthfuls of air and asked, “Odell, what did you say? What are you trying to make

me remember? Can you speak properly?!” He reached out to her face and pinched her lower lip,

caressing it softly.

Sylvia started to feel numb, and he started to free her movements.

Then, he said, “I said you are not allowed to meet Edmund.”

Sylvia frowned. It was because of this that he brought an army of men to where she and Edmund were

supposed to have dinner and abduct her to this godforsaken place. Sylvia sulked in confusion. “Edmund

and I are friends. I know he has a poor reputation, but I listened to you and kept Liam and Isabel from

him. It is my business that I’ve befriended him. I don’t think it’s related

She tried to reason with him as politely as possible.

However, even after her sincere explanation, the frostiness in his gaze did not warm up. He even looked

angrier than before.

Sylvia gasped and said, “Can you let me go first? Let’s talk this through.” Odell bound her to his chest

and said coldly, “No.” It fueled Sylvia’s annoyance. She grumbled, “Odell, you are my ex-husband. What

right do you have to stop me from seeing someone?!” She emphasized and raised her voice on the word

‘ex-husband’. Then, he exerted more strength around her waist, seemingly trying to snap her body in

half. Even in the dark environment, his eyes reeked of antagonism. Sylvia struggled out of pain and tried

to push him away. “Odell, stop!” He refused to comply and did not even conserve his strength. The more

she struggled, the tighter he hugged her.

Sylvia felt her body was breaking in half. The pain, the annoyance, and the grievance drove her to shout

her lungs at him. “Odell, can you be reasonable? I didn’t say anything wrong. Why are you doing this to

me?” Her shout echoed in his ears, but he simply grunted coldly. “If you don’t listen to me, I’ll do

whatever I want to you.” What kind of twisted reason was that? Why would the ex-wife listen to what the

ex-husband said? What right did he have to stop her from seeing someone? As her anxiety rose, Sylvia

chuckled all of a sudden and said, “Odell Carter, are you really in love with me?” The air went silent.

Sylvia suddenly felt the force around her waist soften a little. She somehow recalled that he would tell

her to leave whenever she asked whether he loved her. This time should be no different.
