In a five-star hotel in Liberty, Cliff, who had just finished a phone call, went to the suite where Odell was
resting
In the living room, Odell was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, reviewing documents. Upon
seeing Cliff come in, Odell glanced at him and asked, “Is there any news from Westchester City?”
Cliff smiled and replied, “Master Carter, the people sent to watch Edmund say that he didn’t meet up
with Madam again today when he went to and fro work.”
The cold look in Odell’s eyes eased up a little. “Tell them to keep watching him.”
“Yes, sir,” Cliff answered and withdrew.
However, Odell’s expression was still a little dark. He still did not understand why Sylvia suddenly

the kindergarten as well.
Was he overthinking?
In the blink of an eye, it was Friday again.
That evening, Sylvia picked up Isabel and Liam on time and returned to the Carters’ residence.
Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya were chatting about something.
When they saw Sylvia come back with the two children, Madam Carter immediately said, “Syl, the new
holiday resort at Northpeak has opened. I plan to go there with Tonya for the next few days. Do you
and the children want to come along?”
Sylvia knew about the Northpeak Holiday Resort. The landscape in Northpeak before development was
very unique with both mountains and rivers. It was home to very beautiful sceneries.
Alter development, there were presumably many new facilities added, so there should be something
suitable for the children.
Sylvia asked Isabel and Liam, “Kids, do you want to go out tomorrow?”
Isabel beard the word ‘out’ and immediately yelled, “Yes!”
Liar said, “I’ll go wherever Isabel and Mommy go.”
“Okay.” Sylvia smiled and said to Madam Carter, “We’ll go together with you, Great-grandma.
Madam Carter immediately told the butler to book the tickets.
Soon, it was time to cal dinner.
Madam Carter suddenly said, “It’s been ten days since Odell left. Shouldn’t he be back soon?” Sylvia
replied, “It should be a few more days before he returns.” These days, she called him every night at 8
p.m., but he never said anything about coming back, so he might still take a while.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter dinner, Sylvia accompanied the little ones to their room.
At 8 p.m., she gave Odell a video call. The call was quickly answered, and the man’s handsome face
appeared clearly on the screen. It seemed like he was going out as he was dressed quite formally. He
wore a white shirt with a black tie and a well-ironed suit. His short hair was combed behind his ears,
and he looked very handsome. However, since he looked a little stern, people did not dare to look him
straight in the eye.
Sylvia took the initiative to ask, “Odell, are you going out?”
He answered, “Yes. I have a meeting later.” “Then, I’ll hang up first. I won’t take up your time.” He
glanced at the time and said, “There’s still ten minutes. There’s no hurry.”
“Okay.” Sylvia thought about it and asked directly, “When will you be back?”
Although her heart had been calm throughout the ten days he left, she could not say that she did not
miss him at all.
