These women are also from the Art Association, and they seldom interacted with Sylvia. However, they were quite close to Tara. When they went shopping before, they bumped into Tara and Odell, and Odell even paid for them on behalf of Tara.At that time, they were only window shopping in the luxurious brand outlets, not planning to buy anything.Such situations had happened more than once. If they did not know Tara, they would never know Master Carter, let alone enjoy this kind of privilege.Looking at Tara’s drunken and painful expression, they immediately defended her against the injustice she had suffered.“I don’t understand. She’s a famous artist now. How could she still use such dirty tricks?”“Of course, it’s because Master Carter is too outstanding.”“Tara, don’t be upset. Master Carter was temporarily seduced by Sylvia, but he’ll still choose you in the end.”“....”The women started to comfort Tara.Tara wiped her tears and stood up shakily.She said, “I’m sorry. I p
Simon directly said, “They said you destroyed Odell and Tara’s relationship and became a mistress. I asked them to stop spreading nonsense, but they didn’t listen to me. What b*llshit! How could you come between someone?”He got angrier the more he said.Sylvia’s gaze turned cold.She was almost certain that Tara was behind it.Sylvia said, “Forget about them. Let’s go in first.”“Okay.” Simon followed closely beside her.Sylvia had known him for many years, and they always had a good relationship.Simon was like her fierce bodyguard. He glared at anyone who dared to look at Sylvia with a peculiar look.Sylvia was quite mad a while ago, but she was soon amused by Simon.“Simon, ignore them,” Sylvia took a seat with Simon after saying so while smiling.They sat together in the first row.When it was almost time for the meeting to start, Christopher walked in with a few other leaders of the association.After they came in, Tara walked in with the help of two women she was clo
Sylvia’s face unconsciously hardened.Simon also stood up in anger.He looked at the people who objected to Sylvia being a judge directly. “How is Sylvia lacking in virtue? Did she deceive you or scam your money?”Simon was still a person of status in the artist world.The few people who agreed with Ariane shut their mouths, seeing that Simon was angered.The scene was only quiet for a few seconds before Ariane stood up and yelled at Simon, “I saw it! In Starlight Square’s parking lot, we saw Tara’s boyfriend carrying Sylvia up to his car! Me, Renna, and Tara saw it!”As her words fell, some people started whispering to each other about this matter.Simon also frowned and looked at Sylvia.Sylvia did not expect them to see her at the parking lot last night.However, Odell only carried her because she fell asleep while the movie was playing in the cinema.Odell wanted to marry her again, so he must have broken up with Tara.Even if something happened between her and Odell, sh
Ariane and Renna also looked at Tara in surprise.Broken up?If they had broken up, Sylvia did not come between them at all!Tara’s gaze darkened, and her eyes filled with tears almost instantly.She still showed Sylvia a smile. “Sylvia, Odell only asked me to have a good rest recently. He never told me that he wanted to break up. Did he tell you we had broken up?”Before Sylvia responded, Ariane yelled, “Master Carter didn’t tell her that he had broken up with you. She came up with a lie to explain herself.”Renna said, “I didn’t expect she could still lie that you have broken up with Master Carter. How shameless!”Tara nudged them. “It’s okay. You can stop talking. Perhaps Odell told her so.”As she spoke, she leaned toward the table weakly, looking as if she did not want to argue with Sylvia anymore.Ariane and Renna asked in concern, “Tara, how are you? Have you not recovered from your sickness yet?”“It must be because you drank too much last night and stayed in the cold
Her voice was dripping with threats and schemes.Sylvia’s expression could not help turning cold. Everything that happened when Odell divorced her suddenly rushed to her mind.It was as if her face felt those sixty loud slaps again.Not long ago, Tara had just spiked her drink and caused her to sleep with Odell.Now, she set up this trap to let the Art Association members humiliate and boycott her to force her to stay away from Odell!Did Tara plot against her over and over again, thinking that she would not strike back?‘Or does she think that her plan would put me in a tight place, and I would be at her mercy?’Sylvia’s lips curled into a cold smile. “Tara, I’m afraid I’d have to let you down.”If she did not get together with Odell quickly, how could she repay Tara for her schemes and plots?After that, Sylvia took out her phone without waiting for Tara to react. She immediately dialed Odell’s number and put it on speaker. The call was soon connected.The man’s magnetic
Sylvia ignored her and walked past them from the space freed when Tara leaned toward Ariane.Simon followed her closely.Ariane and Renna saw that Tara seemed very sick, so they hurriedly helped her out.In the room, the majority of the people were still rooted to the spot.After a while, someone spoke, “How did Sylvia make Master Carter agree to remarry her with a call?”“Are you dumb? It’s clear that Master Carter wants to remarry Sylvia, and Sylvia just agreed to him.”“Huh? Then isn’t Sylvia the person Master Carter loves? Why did Tara insist that Master Carter only loves her?”“I don’t know. I don’t get it either.”“But Sylvia said something right.”“What?”“Tara’s professionalism was indeed average. She got to this point only because Master Carter was helping her behind the scenes. Sylvia was much better than her in terms of appearance and ability. I suddenly feel that it was reasonable for Master Carter to choose Sylvia.”“Well said. I quite dislike Tara sometimes. Sh
Sylvia’s gaze flashed, and she replied, “I was stuck in the traffic, so I got delayed.”It was nonsense. She was late because explaining those things to Simon took some time.Odell sized her up and said, “Go prepare your documents quickly and change into suitable clothes.”Sylvia hummed and walked through the door, with Odell following closely behind.Sylvia had put all her crucial documents in a storage box. She found them soon after she went into her room.Holding her documents, she looked back at the man who walked toward her as she thought of something. “Odell, did Tara call you?”Tara did not want them to remarry, and she must have tried to stop them.Odell narrowed his eyes. “How did you know that she called me?”Sylvia’s gaze flickered, and she replied, “I guessed it.”Odell looked at her and said, “She did, but I hung up.”Sylvia was a bit surprised. “Why didn’t you take it?” She remembered Odell saying that Tara was the one who accompanied him through his darkest tim
Odell pursed his lips and looked at her in silence.Sylvia thought again and asked, “What would you do if you realized that you don’t like me and regretted it?”Odell ignored her words and only stared at her. His sharp gaze seemed to see through her thoughts.Soon, he snorted. “Do you want to go back on your word?”Sylvia’s gaze flickered. “N-no, I was just afraid you’re being reckless and want you to think it through.”Before finishing her words, he dragged her down the car.Odell walked into the City Hall with Sylvia in his arms.Sylvia was almost carried in by him, and only her toes touched the ground.The passersby looked at them suspiciously. Sylvia quickly said, “Odell, I can walk. Let me go now.”Odell ignored her and only let go of her when they reached the registration counter.At this time, the phone in Sylvia’s front pocket rang.Before Sylvia took it out, a big hand had taken her phone away from her pocket.Sylvia wanted to snatch her phone, but she saw that t
