Chapter 322
Sylvia laughed helplessly. Even during her first marriage with Odell, she had never slept in such a colorful room before. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
However, all that was in the past so it was no longer necessary for her to reminisce about it.
After the bodyguards had placed and arranged all her clothes into the closet, Sylvia told them to get some rest. She then continued to tidy up the rest without asking any of the maids to help. She did not mix her clothes with Odell’s. Instead, she found two empty cabinets and placed all her stuff inside.
When she was done with tidying up, she took the kids to Aunt Tonya.
Aunt Tonya’s room was located on the first floor, which was just next door to Madam Carter’s.
The room had specially been prepared for her because the decor and arrangement of the furniture had all been done according to Aunt Tonya’ preferences.
When Sylvia came downstairs to check on Aunt Tonya, she found her happily chatting with Madam Carter.
Seeing Aunt Tonya’s happy smile relieved her. At first, she had worried about Aunt Tonya not being able to adapt but now, it seemed like her concerns were unnecessary.
By the time she had settled down, it was already late in the afternoon.
Sylvia, Aunt Tonya, Madam Carter and the two kids were chatting happily in the living room until Odell came home.
His towering figure came through the door with a black formal suit and his arrival ceased the chatter in the living room.
“Grandmother, Aunt Tonya, hi.” Odell took the initiative to greet everyone.
!
Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya hummed in reply with a smile.
Odell then turned to Sylvia.
When his deep gaze landed on Sylvia, he was obviously taken aback.
The little surprise was then replaced by a forced smile, as if he was trying to hold back his laughter.
Sylvia knew her makeup and her dress made her look like a walking bright red apple but she was still annoyed by his reaction and she glared at him with pursed lips.
Odell simply reacted with a vague smile. It felt warm but enchanting at the same time.
Feeling inexplicably shy, Sylvia quickly turned around to the kids. Madam Carter had noticed the little interaction with her keen eyes. She then instructed the butler, “Sebastian, tell the kitchen to prepare dinner.”
“Right away, madam,” the butler said with a nod before he left for the kitchen. Madam Carter then said to Aunt Tonya, “Come, Tonya. Let’s go for a walk.” Aunt Tonya knew what Madam Carter was hinting at. She nodded with a smile and said, “of course.”
The two ladies then left the house, leaving Sylvia and Odell alone together with the two kids.
Odell walked over to the couch. He moved Liam away from Sylvia and sat down beside her.
He looked at her overly red cheeks and asked, “Did grandmother have someone dress you up like this?” Sylvia quietly hummed in reply. Odell moved closer to her and said with a smile, “It’s pretty.” He was so close that Sylvia could feel his breath on her.
She blushed but did not answer. Isabel raised her chubby face and cried out, “You meanie, of course my mommy is pretty!” Odell smiled conservatively and hummed in reply.
Sylvia’s face became even redder.
There were a few seconds of awkward pause in Odell’s words which somehow made the atmosphere a little strange. Sylvia turned to him and said, “Odell, could you not stare at me like that?” He had not stopped staring at her since he had greeted Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya. Odell grinned widely and said, “You are my wife now, I can stare at you for as long as I want.” Sylvia could not tolerate his scorching gaze anymore, especially when the kids were staring at
them with curious and innocent gazes.
