Chapter 866
Since the day she went out for a stroll, Sylvia had been going out for a walk every now and then.
Thomas might really not appear again. Almost three months had passed, but Sylvia did not see him, let
alone receive any news about him.
Her days were beautiful and peaceful.
Flint was almost half a year old. His height had doubled, he was chubby and round, and cute as hell.
The temperature also rose sharply, and it was soon the hot summer season.
Isabel and Liam were on summer vacation again, but Odell did not keep them idle and arranged a
summer tutor for them to continue their studies.
Liam was fine since the syllabus and homework were not difficult for him, but Isabel never liked
studying. She got sleepy in class and slacked off whenever she got the chance, using the excuse that
she had to take care of her younger brother, Flint. In fact, she simply watched him play and showed off
how good she was at playing games in front of him.
The little girl was an expert at acting pampered. Sylvia was helpless against her, and Odell spoiled her,
so most of the time, it was Liam who dragged her back and watched her finish her homework.
That afternoon , Sylvia was about to take Flint for a nap when the girl slipped in again.
“Mommy, Flinty, I’m here!” she came in and shouted. Not only did she wake Sylvia up, but Flint also
woke up as well.
When Flint saw his older sister, he grinned and extended his hands toward her.
Isabel immediately carried him off the bed. She put him on the blanket on the floor and let him sit with
his back against the wall. Then, she sat next to him and took out the RC car from behind her, saying to
him, “Flinty, I’ll show you a race car.”
Her voice was still childish. She was clearly a little girl, but she sounded like a big sister.
However, little Flint was a sucker for that and looked at her with shining eyes, grinning all the while.
Isabel played with her new little racing car. Before she could enjoy it to its fullest extent though, Liam
suddenly pushed open the door and walked in.
His cool little face looked at her. “Isabel, have you finished your homework?”
Isabel’s chubby face which was playing seriously immediately changed into a fawning look. She said in
a sweet voice, “Big bro, I’m playing with Flinty now. Can I finish it at night?”
Liam gave her a cold look before looking at Flint beside her.
When Flint saw Liam look over, he obediently stretched out his little arm toward his big brother. It was
obvious he wanted Liam
to hold him.
Liam did not hesitate and walked over to pick him up from the ground. Then, he said to Sylvia,
“Mommy, I’ll take Flint out to play for a while.”
Sylvia saw the undercurrents between them and smiled. “Go ahead.”
Liam carried little Flint away, shooting Isabel an unpleasant look.
Isabel, who was left behind, was in no mood to play games anymore. She put down the RC car and ran
out after Liam and Flint, shouting, “I’ll go do my homework now. Will you play games with me and Flint
later?”
Liam said, “Talk to me after you finish your homework.”
They went away quickly. Judging by the sound of their voices, they went to the living room downstairs.
Aunt Tonya and the others were outside, so they would definitely look after the children.
Sylvia lay back on the bed and slept comfortably.
After an unknown amount of time, there was suddenly a wet sensation on her face. She opened her
eyes and saw little Flint. His little butt lay on her pillow as his mouth kissed her.
The baby’s body was soft and covered with the scent of milk.
Sylvia was wondering how he came back when she saw Odell sitting on the edge of the bed.
He was still wearing the black suit he wore to work that
4 4
morning His back was straight as his deep eyes looked at her.
She was stunned. “Odell, when did you come back?”
“Not long ago.”
She was shocked again. “What time is it?” *Almost six.”
