The smile on Thomas’s mouth suddenly disappeared, and he said word for word, “You’ll regret this,
Odell.”
Odell threw the unfinished cigarette on the ground and crushed it with the sole of his shoe.” Who will
make me? You? Try again in your next life.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the bodyguard gave Thomas a hard shove. His slender and thin
figure stumbled forward a few steps. After standing firm, he turned his head to glance at Odell’s
bedroom to the side. Then, he looked away and walked downstairs.
Sylvia did not know how she fell asleep. She only felt like she was going to die. Her waist felt like it had
snapped, and her body seemed like it had been dismantled into pieces.
Even in her sleep, she was in a state of exhaustion, pain, and panic. She was dazed and confused.

her face. She quickly rolled over to sit up.
Then, the soreness of the muscles in her body hit her so hard that she lay back down in pain. It took a
while before she sat up. The room was quiet. There was no one but her. However, the messy
bedsheets looked the same as when they were tossing around all night last night.
She took a deep breath, put on her clothes, and got out of bed.
It was quiet outside the door.
She went into the next room, but there was no one inside either. She frowned and was just about to go
downstairs when Jacob came over from the stairs.
“Madam, Master Carter let Second Master Carter go early this morning.”
Sylvia felt relief flood her. Then, she took her phone out of her pocket and found Thomas’s number.
When she was about to press it, the scenes of her being held down and coerced by Odell last night
flashed into her mind again.
After a few seconds of hesitation, she sent him a message. “Thomas, are you okay?”
He replied in less than a minute. “Yeah.”
She thought about it and asked again, “Where are you now?”
Thomas replied, “In the house on the outskirts.”
Odell did not know about that place, so Thomas must have gone back on his own.
Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief and put the phone back in her pocket. She did not know what to say to
him now. After all, she had only agreed to be his girlfriend yesterday afternoon but ended up with Odell
last night…
Furthermore, Thomas had just been next door. The soundproofing was so poor that he must have
heard it all.
Sylvia gritted her teeth and headed downstairs.

“No,” she replied coldly.
Jacob said, “Master Carter told me to bring you back.”
She stopped and turned to glare at him. Her eyes were red, and her gaze was cold.
Jacob pursed his lips and did not dare to say anything else. Sylvia’s legs were incredibly sore, so she
could only go outside while taking one small step at a time.
It usually only took a few minutes to get to the front door, but it took her almost ten minutes instead.
There were no cabs in the vicinity, so she called for one online and stood quietly on the side of the
road, waiting for the car to arrive.
Jacob did not dare to follow her. When he saw her waiting for a car, he immediately took out his phone
and called Odell.
The call was quickly connected, and he respectfully said, “Master Carter, Madam didn’t let me send her
back. She called a cab. Do you want to have a look?”
