GoodReadChapter 350
Sylvia stared at the number on her screen blankly.
A lot had happened after they remarried and she felt that he cared about her.
A tiny ember seemed to have gotten into her heart and melted away the layer of frost she used to seal
her feelings away. She even started to recall the sixty slaps she received back then but now, it did not
hurt as much as before.
Since he was serious about the marriage this time and they already remarried, she ought to do her best
to live with him under one roof.
Then, Sylvia said, “Odell, I want to go to Lush Heaven to have a look at Edmund.”
The steadily cruising sports car screeched and wobbled for a fraction of a second. Odell thought he

Sylvia explained, “Odell, don’t take this the wrong way. I’m just trying to talk some sense into him. I
heard he’s been drinking like crazy in Lush Heaven and I don’t want to see him waste his life like this
because of me.” The car screeched to a stop by the roadside.
Odell glared at her and asked in a gravelly voice, “You seem to care about him.”
Sylvia’s eyes shifted for a bit but she looked into his eyes nonetheless and decided to be frank with
him.
“Odell, I have no idea that he liked me before. I thought he was just some art lover. I only found out
about his feelings for me recently. He bought a lot of Simon’s work because of me and even invested in
several projects of the association, I don’t want to owe him anything.”
Odell’s frosty look warmed up a little upon hearing her explanation, but he was still unhappy about it.
“Then, how are you planning to talk to him?”
“I’ll make it clear.”
“What if he still decides to drink after you make it clear? Are you planning to let it go on?” Odell
narrowed his eyes, “Of course, not. We’re married. I’ll never have any other thoughts about other men.”
She knew where to draw the lines. Odell wore a satisfied look after listening to her explanation. He shot
an approving glance at her before he turned the car toward Lush Heaven’s direction. Sylvia
immediately said, “Odell, I can go there on my own.”
Odell did not answer.
Sylvia wisely zipped her mouth and allowed him to fetch her there.
Less than half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Lush Heaven’s parking lot. Odell remained
seated and showed no signs of getting out of the car. He had a glance at the watch and said, “If you’re

Sylvia nodded. “Okay.” She got out of the car and quickly strode into Lush Heaven.
On the other hand, Tara was hiding in the dark corner of the corridor leading toward the rooms on the
second floor.
After informing Sylvia of Edmund’s situation back at the art academy, Tara made her way here and had
been waiting for Sylvia’s arrival ever since.
The moment she saw Sylvia, her eyes gleamed and she started to record the video with her phone.
As Sylvia was in a hurry, she did not notice Tara hiding in the corner. She ran up the stairs and located
the first room. Sherry, Harry, and Lloyd were chatting outside the entrance when they saw Sylvia. They
were delighted by her arrival as if they were graced by hope. Lloyd said, “Ms. Ross, you’re here!
Please go talk to the boss!” Harry said with a sigh, “He doesn’t care about anything lately. Several of
our businesses were taken away by our competitor.” Sherry added, “Syl, do your best. We’ll wait for
you outside here.” “I’ll go talk to him,” Sylvia said.
Odell only gave her fifteen minutes to settle this with Edmund so she could not afford to delay
