Chapter 684
Sylvia’s tense body relaxed as she breathed a sign of relief and cursed her own nerves,
She had seen everything with her own eyes, how could there be anything fishy going on?
What a big man. Did he really have such a difficult time admitting what he had done?
Moreover, she had not even tried to blame him. All she had said was that she wanted him to release
Thomas
Thankfully, by locking her out on the balcony, at least she would not have to sleep with him.
with that thought in mind, Sylvia curled herself up and leaned against the wall to sleep.
The night breeze was a bit chilly during this season but it was not bone-chillingly cold. The breeze
blowing lightly on her was actually quite comfortable.

The man stood in front of the window in the study room next door as he smoked.
The wind came in from the opened window and carried the smoke away. His gloomy expression slowly
eased, until he reached the last cigarette in the box.
He tossed the box into the trash can and left the study room.
Two hours had already passed, so he assumed Sylvia must have figured it out by now. He walked to
the balcony next door and saw Sylvia sleeping on the balcony.
He was stunned.
His gloomy expression blended together with the shadows.
After a moment of silence, he pursed his lips and went out onto the balcony. He then carried her into
his arms and went back inside the room.
After a dreamless night, Sylvia woke up to find the sun shining on her. She was still in Odell’s room but
she noticed that the bed was tidy and she even still had her clothes on.
He had not lald a finger on her last night.
Sylvia got out of bed and went outside.
Sebastian was in the living room, smiling at her when she came down.
Sylvia smiled at him politely and asked, “Sebastian, where’s Odell?”
“Master went out carly this morning,” he said Sylvia nodded in silenu’r and went back to her house next
door
She ate breakfast with her two little ones before alle called Thomas with her phone.
She called multiple times but she did not receive any reply. Her anxiety rose. Sylvia called for a ride
and headed to Thomas’ villa.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe stopped by a shop to buy some breakfast for Thomas, thinking that she would sneak it inside for
him.
A while later, she arrived at the villa.
She was afraid that the bodyguards might confiscate the breakfast she had brought for Thomas, so she
got out of the car at a rather inconspicuous entrance on the side. The moment she snuck closer to the
door, several intimidating men in suits came over. They looked her up and down and noticed the bag of
food that she held in her hands. They ordered, “Throw that away.”
Sylvia stepped back and cautiously stared at them. “Did Odell send you guys here?” They were
dressed differently compared to the usual bodyguards and there were no familiar faces as well. Though
other than Odell, no one else would have arranged for any bodyguards to be here.
The leader of the group answered, “Yes, Master Carter stationed us here.”
As expected.
