Chapter 941
There was an indescribable, menacing look hidden beneath John’s smile as he walked outside.
Peter stayed right behind him and informed, “Sir, that’s Master Carter’s wife.”
“Sylvia Ross, I believe?”
“Yes, I looked up her information. That’s her full name.”
John chuckled softly.
Peter seemed perplexed by this reaction. “What are you laughing at?”
“It’s nothing.” He glowered, “Hire ten more men and send them to her place.”
Peter’s expression changed and he replied, “Okay, I’ll arrange it right away.”
Meanwhile, Sylvia quickly made her way to the penthouse suite.
Cliff was just sorting out the documents when Sylvia showed up. He greeted her with a polite smile,
“Madam, welcome back.”
Sylvia returned an easy smile and asked, “Where’s Odell?”
“Master Carter is in the study.”
“Is he busy?”
Someone as attractive as Odell needed someone of comparable beauty as a companion.
With that in mind, she changed into a floral skirt that fit around her waist snugly, coupled with an
adorable hat. She put on some simple makeup and made sure to apply some lipstick before joining
Odell.
Odell was sitting on the couch in the living room and waiting patiently when he saw Sylvia emerge all
dressed up. He was stunned by what he saw.
Sylvia smiled and approached him shyly as if afraid of exuding too much of her beauty in front of him.
“I’m ready, let’s go.”
Odell smiled and muttered, “Hm.”
He stood up and held out a hand toward her.
Sylvia was used to holding hands with him by now, so she instinctively put her hand forward to offer
herself up.
The two stepped out of the hotel hand in hand and had Jacob drive them to a nearby district.
There were many factors contributing to Glanchester being a perfect tourism spot. Apart from the
wonderful scenery, there were also countless entertainment facilities as well as extravagant shopping
malls, a symbol of the city’s wealth.
Odell took Sylvia to one of the most famous shopping districts in the city. The district featured all sorts
of luxury brands from all over the world, and all sorts of limited-edition clothes and jewelry could be
seen everywhere.
“No.” A voice came from the study.
Sylvia turned in the direction of the study and saw Odell stepping out of the study with an affectionate
look inside his eyes.
Cliff hurriedly gathered the documents and went outside, making sure to close the door behind him as
he left.
It was just Sylvia and Odell left inside the penthouse suite.
Sylvia felt her heart skip a beat.
She stood motionlessly,
Odell strode toward her and asked in a gentle voice, “Back so soon? Did you have fun?”
Sylvia pouted. “It’s kind of boring wandering by myself so I came back.”
Odell gently pinched her cheeks and remarked with a smile. “It’s still early. Go out for a walk with me.”
Sylvia’s eyes glowed up, then a thought suddenly occurred to her. “But aren’t you busy with work?”
“No, not yet.”
“Then I’ll go get dressed and join you right away.”
“Go ahead.”
Sylvia quickly went to her room.
Since they were going to head outside together, she needed to dress appropriately.
Although Sylvia was never fond of luxurious items, some of the intricate designs did catch her eye.
Furthermore, Odell was insistent on buying her something as well so by the time they finished traveling
down the street, both Jacob and Odell’s hands were full with their haul for the day.
Sylvia had enough of shopping and suggested, “Let’s go back.”
Odell seemed like he was not done yet. “Just a little longer. We need some jewelry.”
“No need, this is enough for me.”
“Most of the things you bought were for the children. You need something for yourself,” he said as he
playfully pinched her cheeks.
She protested meekly. “I did buy something for myself.”
Besides, there was already countless sparkling jewelry in her dresser at home that had never even
been worn yet.
Odell’s expression darkened by several shades.
Sylvia understood that she would be ungrateful to turn down his offer. Besides, he had money to
spend.
Despite that, she knew that he had to work hard to accumulate all his wealth so it was imprudent to
splurge just because she could.
