Chapter 1066 Lily was speechless.
Her exquisitely made up face instantly became stiff and even a little unpleasant.
Even after several seconds had passed, she was still unable to recover her usual elegant demeanor.
The young man beside her was also shocked, but he did not dare to say anything in front of Odell. Sylvi
a was momentarily stunned before she was able to return to her senses.
She had already known that Odell would definitely stand on her side, but she had not expected him to s
peak so bluntly to Lily.
Looking at the expression on Lily‘s face now, Sylvia could not help but smile.
Lily‘s face turned ashen in an instant.
Looking at Sylvia coldly, she said, “Ms. Ross, your mental
state now seems to be better than previously. I believe that means that you should be able to paint now
, right?” Sylvia thought of the paintings at home that she was not very satisfied with, and said nothing.
Noticing her silence and her unwillingness to continue
this topic, Lily guessed that Sylvia was definitely still unable to paint.
Soon, her lips curled up as she smiled at Sylvia. “There‘s going to be a new art contest held in Westche
ster
City. I heard that President Dendro wants to invite you to become a judge for the contest. He‘s already
made an
agreement with the sponsors of the contest. They‘ll allow you to be a judge as long as you‘re able to pa
int a work on the spot that‘s up to their satisfaction when the contest starts.”
Sylvia frowned.
‘Christopher wants me to be a judge? I didn‘t hear anything about that.‘
Lily noticed her expression and said, “Ms. Ross, I believe that in your current state, you would surely no
t disappoint them, right?“.
Her sinister tone of voice made Sylvia uncomfortable, and she said, “You don‘t have to worry about
that, Ms. Springsteen.”
Lily‘s expression turned cold. “Then I‘ll look forward to your new work on the opening day.”
After saying that, she turned and walked downstairs.
The young man beside her looked at Sylvia with disdain and followed Lily.
“Master Carter and Mrs. Carter, I‘m really sorry for
disturbing you.” The restaurant owner immediately stepped forward and apologized to them.
Sylvia smiled at him. “It‘s fine. You may continue with your job.”
Then, she grabbed Odell‘s hand. “Let‘s go inside, or the meat will burn.”
Odell looked at her and walked back into the room with her with a smile.
He had already moved the meat off the grill and onto her plate before he came out, and the meat was s
till steaming.
The meat and vegetables that he had placed on the grill just before coming out of the room were almos
t done.
He picked up the tongs to serve her a lot of the food first before putting some into his own plate.
Sylvia took several bites first before stopping.
She asked uneasily, “Odell, will Lily do anything to this restaurant?”
Lily had seemed very displeased when she left, and she had not managed to get what she wanted. Syl
via was worried that she would take her anger out on the restaurant owner.
“She won‘t go as far as to retaliate against a restaurant owner.”
That was true, but… “What if?”
Sylvia felt that Lily was quite petty.
Lily was the big miss of the Springsteen family. Sylvia wondered why she kept on trying to mess with he
Odell gave her another slice of meat
and said, “I know the owner of this shopping street. I‘ll talk to him after dinner and
ask him to pay attention to this restaurant.”
Sylvia‘s face brightened. “Okay.”
Then, she picked up the tongs that he had just put down and clipped a piece of freshly grilled meat to pu
plate.
He had been feeding her all night, so she had to return the favor.
Odell smiled and immediately put the piece of meat into his mouth
After eating and drinking their fill, they left the place feeling satisfied.
It was the time when the night life was bustling.
The streets were brightly lit, and there were crowds coming and going everywhere.
