Chapter 358

Odell shot her a grim look. Sylvia awkwardly chuckled and said, “Um, can you be a little more patient?”

He pressed his lips onto hers to silence her. The kiss felt more like a punishment because he only

released her after her lips were swollen.

He got off from her and strode to the bathroom. The shower was turned on as soon as he slammed the

door shut.

Sylvia sighed a breath of relief and sat herself up.

A while later, Odell came out of the bathroom in his robe. She stared at him shyly, but he simply replied

with a frosty gaze.

Sylvia pursed her lips and went into the bathroom. To her surprise, the bathroom remained chilly even

after Odell’s shower. There was not the slightest bit of warmth inside.

She frowned. ‘Did he shower in cold water just now?’

Sylvia turned on the heater and took a shower.

When she came out in her pajamas, she saw Odell reading a book on the bed.

Sylvia crawled into bed and lay down beside him. She then turned to him and softly said to him, “It’s

getting late. You should get some rest.’

Odell gave her the cold shoulder. He must still be mad about not being able to have sex with her.

However, Sylvia could not help it as well. She lost count of her menstrual cycle and did not expect to get

it today. She pursed her lips helplessly and turned to the other side to sleep.

In the next second, a warm presence embraced her from the back. The man’s long arms curled around

her waist and hugged her into his chest tightly.

His gravelly voice then entered her ears, “Can’t you chat to me a little more?”

In other words, he wanted her to coddle him more.

Sylvia gulped nervously and said, “It’s late. Get some rest.”

He lowered his head to her neck and took a nibble.

Sylvia gasped in shock, but before she could react, he said, “Call me at 8 p.m. every night. If I don’t pick

up because of work, text me. I want you to do it for as long as I am away for the business trip.”

Sylvia was afraid that he would bite her again, so she played along and said, “Okay, I will.” Only with her

assurance, did he withdraw his strength from her.

After a dreamless night, the next day arrived.

Cliff came over around noon with his briefcase to pick Odell up.

Sylvia sent them off at the entrance. While Cliff helped put Odell’s luggage into the trunk, Odell turned

around and hugged Sylvia in his arms. The two of them would not be seeing each other for at least ten

days, and even she felt a little empty.

She returned his hug and said, “Odell, good luck with your work.”

Odell lowered himself to kiss her. The kiss lasted for a while before he released her. He then stared at

her with the warmest gaze and said, “Thank you.”

Cliff watched from afar and chuckled at the scene.

Sylvia started to blush. She said, “Hurry up. Don’t be late.”

Odell smiled. “Wait for me.”

“I will.”

He turned around and hopped into the car. Sylvia watched as the car disappeared beyond the junction

before she went back inside.
