Chapter 766
Sylvia followed Odell out of the car.
As soon as they reached the door, a young woman in a white shirt came out. She smiled at Odell.
“Good afternoon, Master Carter.”
Odell replied, “Good afternoon.”
Skylar then looked at Sylvia and asked, “This is Ms. Ross, isn’t she?”
Her smile seemed to be contagious and was very affectionate.
Sylvia smiled politely. “Yes.”
“My name is Skylar O’Brien.”
“Hello.”
Skylar then said to Odell, “Let’s talk inside.”
“Sure.”
He held Sylvia’s wrist and led Skylar and her into the cafe.
The cafe was quiet as there were not many customers. Sylvia followed them to a seat by the window.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe light from outside spilled in, and the area was very spacious.
She and Odell sat on one side whereas Skylar sat across from them.
At that moment, a waiter came over and asked, “May I take your order?”
Skylar smiled and said, “I’d like a latte.”
The waiter then looked at Odell and Sylvia,
Odell said, “Black coffee.”
Sylvia echoed, “Same for-”
“She wants a pot of tea.” Odell looked at her coldly. Sylvia weakly pursed her lips.
Before long, the waiter served the drinks in front of them.
Sylvia happened to be a little thirsty and picked up the tea to drink.
“Ms. Ross, what happened to your arms?” Skylar suddenly asked her.
Sylvia immediately put her hand under the table and peeked at Odell. He was drinking coffee, and his
face was cold and expressionless. Skylar laughed again. “Don’t worry, Ms. Ross. I’m just curious. You
don’t have to answer me if you don’t want to.
Sylvia frowned and asked, “Are you Odell’s friend?”
She replied, “Yes, I went to the same middle school with Master Carter. I’m a psychiatrist now.”
‘A psychiatrist? Did Odell bring me here to see a psychiatrist?”
Sylvia paled and immediately insisted, “I’m not sick. I’m very healthy.” “I didn’t say there was anything
wrong with you, Ms. Ross. I just want to have a chat with you.”
“No need. I-I have something to do at home. I’ll be leaving now.” Sylvia tried to stand up to leave, but
her eyes looked at Odell’s gloomy gaze again.
His figure sat on the seat beside her, blocking her way out. It seemed like he had no intention of letting
her go.
Sylvia frowned at him.
He looked at her and asked, “Do you want to see the children?”
Her gaze instantly changed.

Sylvia clenched her fists and asked with uncertainty,” Will you let me see the children if I sit down?”
“Yes.”
“Really?” she asked suspiciously.
“Really.” His face was cold, but his tone was patient.
Sylvia sat back down.
Skylar took note of her actions and demeanor and said with a smile, “Have some tea, Ms. Ross. We’ll
just have a casual chat.”
Thinking that she could see Isabel and Liam, Sylvia immediately downed her cup of tea in one gulp.
Then, she plucked up the courage to look at Skylar and said, “The injury on my arm is because I
scratched it.”
“Why did you scratch yourself? Was it because you were in a bad mood?”
