Chapter 243 Odell‘s cold gaze eased up slightly, and he pushed open the car door and got out. Tara
hurriedly got out of the car and followed him. She took one of his arms and pretended not to know
anything, saying, “Those people just now don’t seem like they work on the right side of the law. Why
was Sylvia laughing and talking with them?” After she spoke, Odell‘s expression was instantly clouded
with another layer of gloom. “The man in charge seems to be close to Sylvia.” Tara went on to say, “Do
you think they‘re dating?”
Odell suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Tara had been looking at him and saw his gloomy expression. It was as if he was a devil from hell. It
was terrifying. She shrank in fear. “Odell, what‘s wrong?” He pursed his lips. “I‘m fine.” However, his
voice was frigid. He was obviously unhappy. Tara pretended not to notice and rubbed against him,
saying softly, “Let‘s go inside quickly. It‘s cold outside.” Odell pursed his lips and entered Elysian House

Lake Victoria Villa. Before getting out of the car, Tara leaned close to him and threw herself in his arms.
“Odell, I don‘t want to be separated from you. Stay with me tonight.”
She moved to kiss him. However, just as her lips were about to touch his, her body was suddenly
pushed away by his large hands.
Her face turned pale for an instant.
Odell turned and raised a hand to touch her head. “I have to go back to the company. I‘ll accompany
you next time.” Tara could not help but be disappointed. “Okay.” She got out of the car.
Odell drove away.
She stood in place, watching his car drive away, and could not restrain the cold look from
surfacing on her face. She knew that he was a clean freak and did not like to get close to people. That
was why she rarely asked him to spend the night with her. She also did not have the luxury to initiate
intimate acts between a man and woman. However, he refused to kiss her!
Was it because he was in a bad mood after seeing Sylvia joking around with other men?
Or did he get tired of Tara?
Whichever it was, she could not accept it!
Soon, she took out her phone and sent a message to Edmund.
She first sent a smiling emoji and then asked, “Mr. Price, how are Sylvia and you getting along? Is she
to your liking?” Edmund replied to her after a while, “Mind your own business and don‘t ask me about
mine.” Tara‘s expression was displeased.
However, Edmund had dirt on her, so she could not offend him.
She quickly said, “Okay, Mr. Price. Have fun.” When she saw him and Sylvia walking together in the
parking lot of Elysian House, she could see what he thought of Sylvia.

he would drag her to it instead.

Sylvia would inevitably be bedded and tortured by him!

When that happened, even if Odell had feelings for her, he would loathe her even more. It. would be
impossible for them to be together again!
Odell went straight back to the old Carter mansion.
It just turned 9 p.m. Odell entered the gate and asked the guard on duty, “Did Sylvia come tonight?”
The guard replied, “The young master and young miss went to look for Ms. Ross early in the morning.
Ms. Ross sent them back only when it was almost dark, so she did not come back at night.” Odell
walked into the living room with a sullen face. The living room was quiet. No one was around.
He went to the little ones‘ room.
Through the door, he heard the sound of them playing games inside.
