Chapter 805
Liam was reading his book on the other end of the couch. Isabel was writing her homework at the table.
Her grumpy looks stated that she was forced or even coerced into doing her homework.
Sylvia was surprised to find the father and children in the living room.
The three of them turned to her as soon as she came in. “Mommy!” Isabel abandoned her homework
and ran to her mother.
Liam also put his book down and got up.
Only Odell remained at his seat lazily. His eyes, however, were looking at her coldly.
Sylvia carried Isabel and walked to Liam before she greeted the owner of the house, “Good morning.”
Odell continued reading his newspaper and ignored her greeting
Sylvia pursed her lips and then said to her children in a small voice, “Isabel, Liam, why don’t we go
back to the room and Isabel can continue doing her homework there.”
Odell was obviously unhappy with her, so it would be

Isabel hummed a reply and went to tidy up her homework. Liam grabbed his book and then returned to
his mother to hold her hand.
Sylvia then brought the kids to their room.
The man who hid his face behind the newspaper felt disheartened.
He had been busy for the entire week for the year-end closing of his company and he had to work until
late at night every day. When he finally came home at night, she had already gone home. She left
punctually for the whole week, which resulted in him missing her every time he came home.
Now when he finally saw her, she used the kids as an excuse to avoid him?
How badly did she want to avoid him?
He tossed the newspaper aside and bolted up.
As he walked out of the house, he ran into Sebastian.
Sebastian noticed the grumpy look on him and he asked,” Sir, where are you going?” “Social meeting,”
he said.
Sebastian found it surprising. “I thought you’re having your holiday?”
Odell ignored him and strode out of the gate.
The man’s grumpy look scared Sebastian, so he dared not ask anymore.
Back in the kids’ room, Sylvia had no idea that Odell just left so she accompanied the kids until it was
lunchtime.
Sebastian knocked on the door to inform them lunch was ready.
Sylvia brought the kids downstairs and finally learned Odell went out.
“I thought Daddy is having a holiday? Why did he go out?” Liam asked.
Sebastian said, “He said he’s going to a social meeting.” Sylvia frowned. Social meeting? Christmas

He probably went out because he did not want to see her.
Odell did not come back for dinner.
Sylvia texted him an update on Isabel and Liam’s homework and left. Another night went by peacefully.
On the second day, Sylvia arrived at Carter Residence punctually.
Coincidentally, she ran into Odell just when she was about to get out of the car. Odell was walking out
of the house and when she saw him, her hands on the handle retracted.
She said to the driver, “Can you wait for a while? I’ll go down after he leaves.”
The driver nodded.
Her ride was right outside of Carter Residence.
Little did she know, Odell spotted her as soon as the car stopped in front of the house.
He could easily see her through the glass window, and he also spotted her lowering her head when he
came out.
He narrowed his eyes coldly as he walked past the car and headed to his black sports car.
The black sports car roared to life and drove off. Sylvia finally came out of the car.
