GoodReadChapter 744
Sylvia trembled all over and suddenly yielded to Odell like a kitten being grabbed by the scruff of her
neck. Odell made a look. “Why did you stop running?” Sylvia murmured, “Please let go of me.”
The collar of her shirt was pulling at her neck and restricting her breathing, making her feel very
uncomfortable.
Odell scoffed. “So you can bite me again?”
This was to say that he was not going to make the same mistake of wrapping his arm around her neck
to expose his weakness to her.
Sylvia insisted. “Let go of me, please.” Odell asked, “Do I look stupid to you?”
She grimaced and threatened. “Odell, do you think they can hear me if I screamed right here and
now?”
He smirked menacingly. “Go ahead and try.”
Sylvia frowned.
He was the one who forced her hand!
She drew a deep breath and let out a cry, “Lia-”

Before she could scream their names out, she felt a hand over her mouth muffle her.
He put his entire palm over her mouth, she could barely open them at all.
She tugged at his hand with all her strength but could not pry them away. The only noise she could
produce was a muffled cry.
She was furious and tried to stamp on the soles of his feet but all she managed to stamp on was the
cold hard ground.
Heh. The man suddenly chuckled in what seemed like a combination of mockery and amusement at
her aghast expression.
This only infuriated Sylvia further. She stamped her feet again and again.
Odell stood a safe distance behind her and watched her frantic attempts to resist as he smiled coyly.
He was having the time of his life entertaining himself when suddenly, he felt something wet drip onto
the back of his hand.
She stopped struggling and was standing motionlessly in place.
He was startled by this sudden sensation and upon taking a closer look, he saw that her tears had
fallen on his hand.

He grabbed her by her shoulder and made her turn to face
him.
She lowered her head to avoid his gaze. There was a strange stillness to her now that was a complete
transformation from only mere moments ago.
He frowned and turned her chin up to look at her reddened eyes that reminded him of a rabbit. Her face
was scrunched in sorrow. It suddenly made him feel sympathetic for her pain.
He felt something tighten in his chest and asked, “What are you crying about?”
He was not trying to reproach her or needlessly aggravate her sorrows. He was not serious about
sending her back to Galston to begin with.
What made her cry so suddenly?
Sylvia pursed her lips and said in a low voice, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have stabbed you six months ago. I
was wrong about trusting him, and I misunderstood you back then. You don’t have to forgive me if you
don’t want to. You can scold me and hit me as much as you want but please don’t
Upon arriving at this note, her sentence turned into a drawl as if she was afraid to go on, knowing that
what she wanted to say would only upset him. He asked impatiently, “Please don’t what?”

“Can you please not send me back to Galston?” Tears poured out of her eyes uncontrollably when she
said this.
Odell was struck speechless.
He felt a giant lump stuck in the middle of his throat.
Was she frightened to the point of tears just because he said he was sending her back to Galston?
“What happened to your courage ?” He lifted her by her chin and slowly caressed her cheeks with the
tip of his thumb. “Haven’t you been living well with Thomas in Galston over the last half year?”
Something flickered in her eyes. She clenched her hands tightly to the side of her body and mentioned,
“I… I’m getting tired. I need to get some rest.”
With that, she turned to leave.
Odell wrapped his arm around her body and held her close to him.
He looked at her reddened cheeks. “It’s only eight. Haven’t you just woken up?” Sylvia was bound in
place.
She pursed her lips and remarked, “Don’t you know that a pregnant woman needs more sleep than
usual?”
He narrowed the look in his eyes.
He could feel her bulging belly.
