The car journeyed back to Sylvia’s place in silence.

As soon as the car stopped, Aunt Tonya immediately got out to help Sylvia out of the car.

However, Odell beat her to it. Opening the other door, he wrapped his arm around Sylvia’s waist and carried her out of the car.

Sylvia glared at him.

Odell pursed his lips as he carried her inside.

He carried her all the way to her room, only letting her go when he put her down on her bed.

Sylvia huffed and turned away from him.

However, even after a long time, the room remained quiet and the man did not make any move to leave.

Annoyed, she turned to him and asked, “Why are you still here?”

With his arms crossed in front of him, he stood by the bed and gazed at her intensely. “How did you hurt your leg?”

She knew if she continued to keep quiet, he would never leave.

She gulped and begrudgingly said, “I slipped and fell.”

“Where?”

“At the front door.”

Odell pursed his lips and said gruffly, “Be careful next time.”

    Sylvia slept until she woke up naturally.When she woke up, Isabel and Liam were sitting beside her as they looked at her with their wide, round eyes.They looked like two little buns and were extremely adorable.Sylvia sat up with a smile and asked them, "What are you two doing here?"Isabel pouted. "Mommy, Aunt Tonya said you hurt your leg again."Liam said nothing and simply stared at her quietly.Sylvia smiled. "Mom is fine. It's just a light injury. I'll recover after a few days."Isabel's eyes lit up. "Really?"Sylvia quickly said, "Really."The little girl's expression finally improved.Sylvia also rolled over and got out of bed.Her calf was still a little swollen and painful, but it was obviously much better than last night.She could not walk too quickly, but she could still walk normally.Under the supervision of her two little wardens, Isabel and Liam, Sylvia quickly washed up, put on her coat, and went out of the room with them.Then, she noticed an extra lon

    Odell continued, "Last night, I was in the Old District to attend a family dinner. I happened to bump into Tara when I came out at the entrance into the alleyway. She was being harassed by a few ruffians and fainted in front of my car, so I had no choice but to help her. Due to our past relationship, I accompanied her to the hospital, which was where I met you."He spoke in a calm, magnetic voice that was very pleasant to the ears.Sylvia turned her face away to avoid looking into his eyes. "You don't have to explain that to me. I don't care what relationship you have with her now."Odell used the warm palm of his hand to cup her face and lifted her squirming face as he said with a smile, "If you don't care, then why are you so angry?"Sylvia blinked. "I'm not angry."He lowered his handsome face to her and asked in a low and magnetic voice, "Really?"She blushed. "Yes—"Before she could finish, his lips landed upon hers again.Unlike the forceful kiss from before, this one was

    Sylvia responded with a smile, "He didn't bully me. Don't worry.""That's good." Aunt Tonya put down the broom in her hand.Sylvia thought of something and asked suspiciously, "Aunt Tonya, didn't you see Odell earlier this morning?" Why did Aunt Tonya seem so surprised to see him now?Aunt Tonya also looked puzzled. "I didn't see him. I was called out by Sebastian not long after I got up. I only saw Odell when I came back."Sylvia frowned. "So, it wasn’t you that told him that I hurt my leg because of him?"Aunt Tonya quickly said, "Of course not."Sylvia choked and felt her face heat up.That man had clearly lied to her!Aunt Tonya saw that she looked upset and worriedly asked, "What's wrong, Syl?""It's nothing. I'm hungry. Let's make breakfast.""Sure. I've already prepared the ingredients. I'll go get them now," Aunt Tonya said and went to the kitchen.Sylvia glanced outside and followed her to the kitchen....In the evening.Sylvia and Aunt Tonya had just brought di

    A few days later.Early that morning, the bright sunshine spread all over the land.The snow that had blanketed the ground melted away as the weather warmed up.Sylvia was still asleep when she was woken up by Isabel.Her little hands tugged at Sylvia as she yelled, "Mommy, get up. We're going to play outside with Baddie today!"Sylvia opened her eyes.Not only did Isabel come into view, but she also spotted Odell and Liam standing by the door.Both father and son were looking at her while standing in the same posture.Sylvia instantly became alert and sat up.Subconsciously, she wanted to say that she already had plans and tell them that they could go play by themselves. However, for some reason, her words got stuck in her throat.As if she could guess that she might say that she had something else to do, Isabel quickly crossed her arms as she pouted and spoke crossly to Sylvia, "Mommy, I'm gonna be angry if you don't play with us today!"Sylvia pursed her lips.By the doo

    Without thinking too much about it, Sylvia picked up her fork to take some food for Isabel and Liam....After dinner, she tucked the little ones into bed.They were tired out from playing during the day and fell asleep before Sylvia could even begin to tell them a bedtime story.She kissed their tender little faces, got up, and went back to her room.After washing up, she went to the window and looked outside.She could look into the yard from here.There were several parking spaces in the yard, but Odell's car was not there. He was obviously still away.After standing for a while, she turned around and went to bed.However, she tossed and turned for a long time and did not manage to fall asleep until the later part of the night.Then, she woke up before dawn.She got up and went to the window to take a look at the yard.The parking spaces were now full, including Odell's car. He had probably come back after handling his affairs.Sylvia sighed in relief, went back to bed,

    Like a little puppy, Isabel ran next door again.Sebastian and the other maids all smiled when they saw her coming again.Isabel also greeted them with a sunny smile before going into Odell's room.On the large bed, Odell lay on his back as he slept soundly.She stayed by his side for a while before becoming bored. So, she decided to climb into bed and snuggled up to him.She had only intended on accompanying him, but for some reason, she grew sleepy after lying down for a while.Her little hands clutched the front of his shirt, as she rested her little chubby face on his arm. Soon, she was fast asleep.The room was quiet.The man continued to sleep soundly.After quite some time had passed, he slowly woke up.While he was still half asleep, he felt as if a little fat cat was cuddling him. The little body was fleshy, and felt as comfortable to hug as a nice fluffy pillow.His consciousness had always been alert.So, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that Isabel was slee

    By the time breakfast was over, every single plate and bowl on the table was empty.Covering her bulging stomach with her hands, Isabel cried out, "Mommy, I think I ate too much."Helplessly, Sylvia pursed her lips and was just about to get up to get some digestive enzyme tablets when Odell said, "Where are the tablets? I'll go get them."As he spoke, he stood up and placed Isabel in her arms.Sylvia said, "It's in the medicine box under the cabinet over there."She pointed in the direction of the living room.Odell quickly went over and brought out a bottle of digestive enzyme tablets.Sylvia took two tablets and placed them in the little girl's mouth, gently saying, "Chew them slowly."The girl nodded and began to chew.Sylvia looked at Liam. "What about you? Do you feel bloated?"With a serious look on his face, Liam pursed his mouth and said, "No."Sylvia looked at his stomach.His shirt seemed to be bulging out as well, yet he had said 'no'?Holding back a smile, Sylv

    Sure enough, Odell came back in the evening before it got dark.He was dressed in a suit with a long black coat over it, which complemented his tall and imposing figure.He had only just stepped inside when Isabel came running up to him."Baddie, you're back!"Odell picked her up and said to Liam, who was reading a book in the yard, "It's cold. Come inside to read."Liam did not say anything but obediently put away the book and followed him in.They would be having pizza for dinner.At that moment, Sylvia was sitting at the table with Aunt Tonya, making the dough.They both looked up when they saw the father and children come in from outside.Odell smiled at her and quickly walked to the table. Then, he placed the box that he had been carrying in his other hand on the table. "I bought some snacks along the way. You should eat them while they're hot."Through the box, Sylvia could smell the fragrance coming from inside.She pursed her lips. "Okay."Seeing that Isabel was eye

    She was her usual self in every aspect. She put her heart into her job and never started trouble so long as nobody tried to start trouble with her. The crew cycled through their locations during their shoot. The constant travel made her skin break out slightly, but there were no other concerns otherwise. The shoot progressed very smoothly and within three months, they managed to wrap up everything at the mountainous region previously mentioned. It was nearly evening when they wrapped up the shoot. Holding a bouquet in hand, she took a group picture with the crew and celebrated with everyone. After that, she planned to hitch a ride with another crew member and leave for home. To their demise, some men in uniform who claimed to be the road maintenance technicians showed up to break the bad news to them. They mentioned that they had to repair some of the roads urgently and so the way home was temporarily obstructed. The director took his phone and called the city hotline fo

    He remembered his first meeting with Isabel. She was sitting all by herself on the floor, in the middle of nowhere. Her vulnerable expression only made her more endearing. So, he managed to get her to go to his place and installed her in his home. He fell for her and paid careful attention to all her needs. It did not take long before Isabel caught feelings for him as well. The two of them got together in no time. Their days were plain and ordinary, but also very fulfilling, that was until he met Clarice. With the help of his father, his power struggle with Roland had reached a tipping point. It was at that opportune moment when Clarice’s father saw something in Roland and planned to wed his daughter Clarice to him to join up their families, which was a cause for alarm for Decker. He stressed over it for an entire night before approaching Clarice himself the very next day. Clarice quickly caught feelings for him as well. Furthermore, Roland had been foolish enough to reject

    Decker was smiling quite earnestly at Isabel. Isabel threw a deeply suspicious look at him, then she glanced at the stack of documents laid out on top of the table in front of her. “Transferal of Shares.” She was dumbfounded. "I've gone through the contract, it’s safe to sign so go ahead.” Roland picked up a pen and handed it to her. "Roland, I..." "Sign it first, I’ll explain when we get home.” Isabel frowned and tried to protest. "I—" "Don't make me have to beg." Isabel did not know how to respond. Fine. She briefly scanned through the contract. The contract stated Decker’s agreement to transfer the remaining forty percent of his shares in Rockwell Corporation to her. Roland must have talked to the shareholders of Rockwell Corporation about this as well. They all regarded Isabel with polite smiles. Isabel had flipped through the final page of the document. She signed her name on one of the marked-out sections. She proceeded to sign all thr

    They ended the call shortly after that. Isabel glanced at Martha and was hesitating if she should break the news right away. Martha seemed to have sensed her staring and suddenly turned to her with a flash of concern. "Isabel, what's wrong?" Isabel took a deep breath and broke the news. "Auntie, Master Rockwell just passed away." Martha's eyes widened. After a lengthy silence that lasted more than ten seconds, she started to break out in tears. She covered her face with her hands and expressed amid bouts of tears mixed with laughter, “Wonderful! About time! I hope he enjoys life in the underworld. God knows that someone like him will never deserve a spot in heaven!” Isabel did not know whether she should celebrate with Martha or console her. Soon, Martha began to collect herself. She briefly wiped away her tears and joyfully took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let’s go shopping! I’m in such a good mood today, I’m going to go on a shopping spree!” "Okay. But Roland w

    Isabel held onto Roland's hand firmly during the entire drive home after leaving the hospital. It was because Roland’s hands were cold and rigid. Isabel sat with him and tirelessly rubbed his hand to keep them warm. After one hand was warm, she would shift her attention to the other. By the time she managed to warm the other hand, the original hand would turn cold again. She decided it was easier to take both of his hands and caress them with the warmth of her palms. Roland looked at her with a gentle glow deep within his eyes. “Thank you, Isabel,” he said softly. Thank you for loving him, and for sticking by his side all this time despite circumstances. Isabel smiled. “I’m just warming your hands, it's no big deal. Still, you’re welcome." Roland smiled faintly and left it at that. Soon, his hands began to warm up off of the heat of Isabel’s palms. When Isabel felt that his hands were no longer freezing, she prepared to pull her hand away. That was when

    Decker looked nothing like his usual self. The pompous, arrogant man who held himself far above others and who expected everyone around him to kiss up to him because he was superior to them all. It was as if he had been plunged not only to Earth but a pile of swamp. He had completely lost his usual grace. Isabel said crossly, "Decker, have you gone mental? Is everything going on too much for you?” “Yeah, could you help me?” he said with a coy smile, “Just one hug should be enough to take care of it all.” Isabel rolled her eyes. Without warning, he suddenly braced himself and lunged right at Isabel, stepping past Brandon who was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Isabel barely had time to react. Just when it seemed like his hand was about to graze Isabel, a long pair of arms seized Isabel from behind and jerked her backward. It was swiftly followed by a long, muscular leg shooting outward right next to Isabel. Thump! Decker was kicked to the ground.

    "How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him. "Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?” What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation? She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.” Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?" “He proved his worth.” Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, “He passed the interviews himself. I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.” "

    "I never meant to kill him! Roland, you have to believe me. Why would I still try to deceive you when I’m in this state?” “In that case, you can go ahead and explain things to him in the afterlife.” Master Rockwell was taken aback by this, his demeanor tightened. "You...you..." Roland looked at him calmly. "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. It was Grandma and my parents who raised me. They instilled morals and virtue into me and made sure I’d grow into a decent man.” Master Rockwell was briefly relieved to hear this, but before he could rid himself of his trepidation, Roland continued in a dark voice, "But I won’t forget about you and Decker bribing all those media outlets to defame Isabel. I know you manipulated the stock prices to try to kick me out of the corporation. I’ll make sure to settle our score through the legal system.” If convicted guilty, they would have to rot in prison. “Roland… listen to me, Roland. Decker is your uncle. If you want revenge, you can come

    Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes. When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed. After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave. Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel. “Roland, Isabel, please have a seat.” Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say." Isabel stayed silent. A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I’m a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!” Isabel frowned. She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state t
