Chapter 451 Tara’s eyes flickered. She gritted her teeth and agreed before saying softly, “I’ll go now,
Odell. Rest early.”“Mm.”With that, she clenched her fists and walked out.Odell looked at Isabel.When
Tara went out, Isabel’s little face suddenly eased up. She plopped back on the bed and lay beside
Madam Carter, hugging her arm as if she wanted to sleep there.Odell glanced at Violet. “Call me when
she falls asleep later.”Violet replied, “Yes, sir.”He turned and went out.Isabel saw him leave and
instantly muttered to Madam Carter, ” Great-grandma, I chased away that ugly woman. You can go to
sleep now. I’ll accompany you…”Violet watched this scene and could not help but smile.‘Isabel is the
cutest little girl I’ve ever met. Although she has a huge temper, she only directs it at Odell and Tara.
She’s never lost her temper with us and is sometimes so well-behaved that it’s heartbreaking. It’s clear
that Sylvia brought her up well.‘As for Tara…If not for my good friend who worked in Lake Victoria Villa
as her housekeeper and told me many things, I would probably have been fooled by Tara’s hypocritical
act.‘Anyway, she can’t even compare to Sylvia. Unfortunately, Sylvia is gone.’Violet looked at Isabel on
the bed and sighed.‘I just hope her father will never marry Tara and she ends up as her stepmother.’On
the other side, Tara left the residence and got into her car. Then, she cursed at the child several
times.However, when she thought about how Sylvia was as dead as a doornail, she soon felt happy
again.At that moment, her phone rang. It was Melanie. Tara brought the phone to her ear.On the
phone, Melanie asked bluntly, “Tara, has that bitch’s body been found?”“Not yet. She has probably
been washed away to someplace else.”Melanie asked in a small voice, “Could she have been
rescued?”Tara smiled coldly and said, “Impossible. There’s no way she’s still alive.”Sylvia had been
administered a drug before falling into the water, and her leg had been broken as well. She did not
even have the strength to shout for help. How could she still be alive?Furthermore, Odell had called for
search and rescue not long after she had fallen into the water.At that time, Tara had been worried that
Odell would save her, but more than a month had passed now. The rescue team had finished combing
Cloudy Heart Lake and the nearby river several times but still did not find Sylvia.Thus, Tara was sure
that Sylvia had been swept away by the current that night.Odell had even issued a huge reward for
anyone who found her, dead or alive. The reward surpassed more than an ordinary person could
imagine. If Sylvia really was alive, she would have been sent back by the person who saved
her.Melanie heard Tara’s firm tone, and her uneasy heart calmed down considerably. She then said,
“Since that little bitch is gone, when will you and Odell get together?”Tara could not help but think of the
two damned eyesores, Isabel and Liam. She had gone to the Carters’ residence a few times before,
but they always chased her out.Tonight, she came here before Odell returned because she wanted him
to witness her being bullied by Isabel. She wanted him to see how rude Isabel was.Unexpectedly, he
told her to leave!
