Chapter 293 Liam had always been a quiet kid who rarely showed much emotion. However, when he
mentioned the possibility of living with his mother, not only his eyes shone but even the corners of his
lips curled up in a smile. Sylvia frowned as she looked on in confusion.
Hearing what her brother had said, Isabel replied with a pout, “But what if the Baddie picks on Mommy
again?” “We will protect Mommy together and we won‘t let him pick on Mommy.” “What if he picks on
Mommy when we are at school?”
Liam thought about it for a moment and said, “Great–grandma and Uncle Maxworth will look after her
for us.”
Isabel continued to pout, while Sylvia did the same as she gathered her thoughts. It was then that the
butler came to inform them that dinner was ready.
Sylvia nodded and led the two little rascals to the dining table.

Madam Carter said, “Please stay for dinner, Syl.”| Sylvja looked at her kids who refused to be
separated from her. She nodded and said, “Okay, Grandmother.”
A feast had been spread out on the table.
Sylvia sat together with her kids while Odell sat opposite her. Madam Carter chuckled at the family of
four and said, “Let‘s eat.” Sylvia hummed in reply and started eating with the two little rascals. During
the meal, Odell placed a piece of roasted chicken drumstick on Isabel‘s plate, which was her favorite.
The little girl grunted but she still munched on the drumstick nevertheless.
Dinner went by peacefully.
After dinner, Sylvia accompanied the kids for a little longer, and when they had finally gone to bed,
Sylvia wanted to leave.
However, when she was about to walk out of the living room, Odell stopped her and said, “ Take the
roses.”
Sylvia obediently turned around and picked up the bouquet of roses from the coffee table. Odell looked
at her and said, “Tomorrow is a Saturday, so I plan to take the kids out. Would you like to join us?” Of
course, Sylvia wanted to spend quality time with the kids, but she felt that Odell‘s invitation
came with an ulterior motive. Thinking quickly, she said, “I might be busy—” “I will bring them to your
place when I pick you up at 9 o‘clock tomorrow morning.” Before Sylvia had been able to finish her
sentence, Odell had interrupted her in a strong tone of voice that brooked no opposition.
Sylvia gulped as she stared at him nervously. Odell grinned. “What? Is there anything else?” Without
answering him, Sylvia turned and left the house with the bouquet of roses in her arms.
The next morning, before it was even 9 o‘clock, Isabel was already at Sylvia‘s gate, calling out to her
mother.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSylvia had already had her breakfast and had been waiting for them. The moment she heard the little
girl‘s adorable voice, she immediately came out of her house.
Isabel was wearing a pink plush jacket and a little hat on her head as she waved happily at her mother.
Liam was beside her wearing a kids blue trench coat and a scarf around his neck. He was looking
bashfully at his mother too.
Behind them, Odell was lazily leaning against the door of his car.
He had on a dark–colored trench coat coupled with a casual collared shirt and slim fit pants. His fringe
fell casually at his temples and the pronounced facial features on his face made him look refined and
handsome.
The moment Sylvia‘s gaze landed on him, his lips curled into a warm smile as he said, “Good
morning.”
Sylvia was stunned. A few years ago, while she had been pregnant with the kids and had not learned
about his affair with Tara yet, this was the scene that she had constantly pictured in her mind. In that
scene, he would be standing together with their two adorable little children as they waited for her with a
bright smile.
It was just like it was now.
