Chapter 355
Odell was still deeply irritated. It was not just because of Tara’s little fiasco but also because of what he
had seen in the video.
After Sylvia left the room, Edmund emerged reenergized.
Even his men were shocked by how fast he recovered and asked if it was a kiss from Sylvia that
brought him back to life.
However, the video ended abruptly, and he could not determine if that part was maliciously edited or
not.
Recalling Sylvia’s frank and honest reaction after she returned to the car last night, she did not show
any sense of guilt at all, so she must have never kissed Edmund.
Odell was just wondering if Edmund had forced himself on her. The thought put a scowl on his face.
Moments later, he summoned Cliff. “Send some men to keep an eye on Edmund. Inform me if he does
anything out of the blue, especially when it’s related to Sylvia.”
Cliff was taken aback. He curiously asked, “Sir, what did Ms. Avery say to you just now?”
Odell shot a fierce glare at him. “Just do your job.”
Cliff dared not press on the matter anymore. He immediately nodded and said, “Right away, sir.”
He then quickly left the office.
After some deliberate consideration, Odell called the bodyguard he sent to watch over Tara at Lake
Victoria Villa.
The call went through within a second. “Follow Tara wherever she goes from now on. If she’s acting
weird, inform me immediately.”
Sylvia had no idea Tara went to Carter Tower just to tell Odell some fabricated lies. She was explaining
to Madam Carter why she was still sleeping with the kids at night.
Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya had just returned from outside when the former heard from the servants
that the couple slept with the kids in the same room every night. She went to Sylvia and asked, “Syl, tell
me. Are you still feeling repulsed? You don’t want Odell to touch you, am I right?”
“No, Grandmother, I’m not.”
“Then, why are you still sleeping with the kids every night?” Madam Carter asked.
Sylvia sighed helplessly and answered, “Isabel and Liam have made it into a habit, and they come over
every night after their bath.”
She started off resisting intimate interaction with Odell, but now, the two little rascals had made a habit
out of it and had become extremely clingy. That was the reason why the family of four slept together
every night. She simply did not have the heart to chase the two of them
back to their room. Madam Carter also sighed helplessly after listening to the situation. She knew how
feisty the little girl and boy were, but things could not remain like this forever. Madam Carter sincerely
said, “You have to talk to them and tell them to go sleep in their room. You and Odell just married
again. This is an important time for you two to develop your relationship. You can’t sleep with the kids
anymore.”
Sylvia said with an undercurrent of irritation, “I understand, Grandmother. I know what to do. You don’t
need to worry.”
“Great.”
Madam Carter left Sylvia alone and returned to her room with Aunt Tonya.
Alas, Sylvia lost the mood to return to her painting. Odell gave her a week’s time to tell the kids and
calm them down, but it had been days and she had not been making any progress. She had to think of
a way to break the news to the boy and girl.
Later that evening, Isabel and Liam came home from kindergarten as usual.
Odell had to work late again, and no one knew when he would be back.
Nonetheless, Sylvia, Madam Carter, and Aunt Tonya had dinner with the two little rascals as usual.
After dinner, Isabel and Liam went upstairs to have a shower. Instead of going back into her room,
Sylvia followed the two of them to their room.
