Chapter 1332 Odell returned home shortly after leaving the office.
By this hour, the madam and the children must have already had dinner.
It was only Aunt Tonya and Sebastian chatting in the living room.
Odell went upstairs.

He could hear Flint and Isabel‘s piercing shrieks and laughter coming from the game room.
It did not seem like they were upset with their mother‘s sudden absence.
There could only be one reason that they would not become upset. Sylvia must have informed them about her
departure.
He shoved the door open.
Inside the room, Isabel and Flint, whose faces were covered with tiny slips of paper, suddenly fell silent. The two
kids looked up at their father silently.
Liam, who was toying with a robot in his hand nearby, turned to him as well.
Odell asked abruptly, “Did Mommy call you kids?”

They stared at him without answering, their eyes like shining jewels.
It seemed like they were caught off guard by his question and could not form an answer for several seconds.
It was Flint who turned the question around on him,” Daddy, did Mommy call you?“|
Odell‘s face darkened. He put his hand out and ordered,” Give me your phones.”
Flint quietly removed the toy watch on his wrist and handed it to Odell obediently.
Odell gave him a short, quiet look, then he turned to Liam and Isabel. “Liam, Isabel, give me your phones.”
Liam only remarked disinterestedly, “My phone‘s battery is dead.”
Isabel said the same thing, “Mine‘s dead too.”
Odell grimaced. His voice took on a sharper tone. “If you two don‘t give me your phones, don‘t even think about
stepping inside this room for playtime from here on.”
Liam frowned. He lowered his head and turned his attention back to the toy robot! Such an idle threat was not
going to work on him.
Odell turned to Isabel.
Isabel frowned, and she seemed very conflicted and reluctant.
She hesitantly retrieved her phone from her pocket.
Odell nearly snatched the phone away from her palms. He opened the messaging app and immediately found a
chat group with four members. It was Sylvia and the three children.
The admin of the group was none other than Isabel.
A sharp scowl flashed across his face. He palmed the phone in his hands and stormed outside.
After he left, Isabel folded her arms around her chest and became very disgruntled.

She asked Liam, “Liam, do you think he‘s going to use my phone to call Mommy?” Liam made a look and remarked,
“Seems like it.”
Isabel was very upset. “He suddenly realizes his mistake after Mommy leaves. It‘s a little bit too late don‘t you
think?”
Flint nodded. “Yeah, yeah.”
Meanwhile , Odell went to the patio and began to scroll
through the conversation inside the group.
He felt a sense of relief when he read Sylvia informing.
them that she had safely landed.

It took him some time to go through the entire chat history. After he was done, he went to the contacts and found
Sylvia‘s number.
His finger hovered on top of the display for a moment, then he decided against calling.

voice.
It was better to not call her just yet.
Two days passed.
Meadow Hills.
The sun had barely kissed the edge of the horizon but Sylvia and the other teachers were already awake. They took
their drawing boards and went to the second floor of the hotel where there was a spacious hall. The hall was
surrounded by floor–to–ceiling windows that offered a clear view outside.
The entire landscape was captured from this fantastic vantage point. When the first rays of sunlight spilled across
the nearby highway and the trees lined along it, they took it as their signal to pick up their pens and begin picturing
this .
wonderful scenery.
After she was finished with her painting, Sylvia went back to her room to catch up on some rest.
Around the afternoon, she went out and spent the day with her colleagues again. It was almost nine o‘clock by the
time she returned to the hotel.
