Chapter 873 Sylvia’s face heated up as she immediately smacked the girl’s head. “Isabel Ross, did you watch one of
your idol’s dramas again?”
Isabel replied haughtily, “I only watch cartoons, not dramas.”
“She held Flint and watched dramas with Aunt Tonya for two hours today,” Liam, who was reading a book, said
seriously.
Sylvia frowned at Isabel.
Isabel immediately hid in Odell’s arms, hugging him while shouting at Liam, “You snitch!”
However, Liam ignored her.
Aunt Tonya said sheepishly, “I went back to my room to watch TV during their afternoon nap. I didn’t know when
they came in either. It was only after the show ended that I realized that she was holding Flint and hiding behind
me.”
Sylvia looked at Isabel who turned her head and buried her face in Odell’s chest. It was as if Sylvia was helpless
against her if she did that.
She was holding Flint, so she really could not do anything to Isabel, but she did not want to let Isabel off the hook

Unexpectedly, Odell, who always spoiled Isabel, smacked her bottom and even said, “As punishment , you’re not
allowed to watch TV for a week, and your daily homework is doubled.”

Then, he said to Liam, “You’re responsible for watching her.”
Liam said, “Okay.”
Isabel puffed up her little face and glared at him. “You baddie! don’t want you anymore! Hmph!”
Odell did not fall for that trick. He circled her with one hand to prevent her from falling and picked up the evening
paper with the other hand to continue reading it.
Isabel was so angry that she punched him twice, then she lay on his chest to glare at Liam.
Sylvia could not help but laugh.
The sound immediately attracted Flint’s attention, who also giggled.
When the little guy laughed, everyone in the living room looked up with a smile.
Isabel immediately shouted at Flint, “What are you laughing at, you stinky baby?”
Flint continued to giggle as Isabel angrily buried her face in Odell’s arms.
Everyone in the living room instantly laughed.
Happy times always passed by quickly.
In two days, Odell would be going on a business trip and would not be back for a week.

One week was not that long. She did not see him for half a year before giving birth, and she did not see him for
years before that.
However, since the birth, he would come back every day even if he was busy and stayed at home with her when he
was free on weekends.
Now, he was only gone for a day, but Sylvia already felt sick all over.
Although she had Aunt Tonya and the children to accompany her, when she returned to the bedroom at night, she
could not sleep when she lay on the bed that they shared. She had to chat with him over the phone before she
could fall asleep.
After a long week, just when she thought that he could come back this afternoon, she got the news that he had to

Sylvia did not want to affect his work. Although she was depressed, she said with a smile, “Okay, I’ll wait for you at
home.
He said softly, “I might be back late today, so don’t wait for me. Go to sleep if you’re tired.”
“Okay, I know.”
They then hung up.
He was probably busy again.
Dinner was served on time.
Sylvia fed Flint milk and had dinner with Isabel, Liam, Aunt
Tonya, and the others.
After dinner, Flint fell asleep while Isabel and Liam also went back to their room to sleep after being tuckered out
from playing, and the whole house fell into silence. It was also quiet outside.
However, Sylvia was not sleepy at all.
Just as she stood by the window waiting anxiously, an idea suddenly rushed into her mind. ‘If he’s too busy to come
back, I can go to him instead.’
