Chapter 34
Sylvia then strapped the brother and sister to the rear seat of the car, which was equipped with children’s car seats.
She then drove the car towards the Old District.
Little did she know, there was a white supercar parked beside the kindergarten. It was Tristan, and he watched as Sylvia drove off towards the Old District.
He saw the children as well. Their meticulous facial features made it seem like they had been carved by masterful hands, and they were a lot cuter and more beautiful than the other kids. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
They really resembled Sylvia and…Odell.
He did not mind though. As long as she was back, he was okay with it.
After Sylvia’s car left his sight, he smiled and turned the car away.
Similar to yesterday, Sylvia brought the kids back to her place. She spent some quality time with them before sending them back to the Carters’.
The Carters’ mansion was within walking distance, so she held their hands and walked them back instead.
It was then that Odell came home. He got out of the car and saw the mother and children coming toward him while basking in the sunset’s glory.
Liam was on Sylvia’s left, looking obedient and quiet. Meanwhile, Isabel was on her right, giggling and hopping forward like a cheerful elf.
In the middle, Sylvia wore a plain dress with her hair tucked behind her ear. Her face was free of any makeup, and the smile on her looked warm. She seemed to be telling the children a joke or talking about something funny.
The scene of the mother and children looked harmonious, and it surprised Odell for a
moment.
Until Sylvia came closer with the kids, the expression on his face turned cold.
He lifted his watch and said coldly, “It has been three hours since they finished school. Why are you only sending them home at this hour?”
Before Sylvia could answer, Isabel blurted out, “We are Mommy’s precious kids! She can send us back whenever she wants to without your permission!”
“Isabel is right,” Liam echoed.
Odell was silenced, and it forced a grim look on him.
Sylvia had to hold her laughter back at Odell’s speechlessness. She said, “Don’t worry, Master Carter. I just took them to my place and spent some quality time with them.”
Odell’s hard stare softened. He took the kids and said, “Go in first.”
The kids were unwilling to part with Sylvia, so she squatted down and kissed the both of them, leaving a faint kiss mark on their respective cheeks. ,
The brother and sister were over the moon, and their eyes curved happily like
crescents.
Odell merely tightened his lips and swallowed quietly.
The mother and children finally separated after some intimate exchange.
After the two of them went inside, Sylvia looked at Odell and said, “Is there anything, Master Carter?”
Odell stared at her and the lips that she had kissed the kids with. It somehow agitated him.
“Send thern home before it gets dark next time.”
“Noted on that.”
Since she was unable to fight him, she might as well play along.
“Don’t kiss them as well,” he said.
Sylvia frowned and stared at him in confusion. “Odell Carter, give me a good reason why I can’t kiss them?”
Odell stared at her lips. “Because I said so.”
“Are you out”
A cold glare came from Odell, shutting Sylvia up. She had to swallow her words
before they left her mouth,
The annoyance left a bitter taste on her tongue.
She regained her composure and said with a grin, “Odell, don’t tell me you are jealous
because the kids are closer to me than they are to you.”
