Odell raised his hand to tap on the screen and sent a message. "It's nothing. I just want to inform you that Isabel and Liam need to study now. They can't waste time like before. Remember to supervise their studies when you come tomorrow morning."Sylvia replied, "Okay, I got it."Then, she sent him a cute smiling emoji.Heh.He could imagine her obedient and pleasant appearance through the screen. However, when he thought of her current mental condition, his gaze darkened slightly....The next morning, Sylvia arrived early at the old Carters' residence.The two little ones had just finished breakfast. Odell seemed to have gone out, and there were only Sebastian and a few bodyguards at home with them.When they saw her coming, they immediately ran out to welcome her.Sylvia kissed and hugged them before going to their room.Suddenly, she remembered the text message Odell sent her last night. After playing with them for a while, she asked, "Liam and Isabel, do you have any ho

A day later.At the old Carter Residence.Seeing that it was getting dark, Sylvia said goodbye to the children just like the day before, then headed for the door.Isabel and Liam both followed her to see her off.Unexpectedly, before she could walk out of the living room, the tall figure of a man came up to her.He wore a black suit topped with a long coat. His figure was straight and strong, and his appearance was as handsome as ever. However, the cold aura emanating from his body intimidated people from approaching him.Sylvia stopped and took the initiative to smile at him.Odell looked at her coldly. "Have they finished their homework today?"She had not expected him to ask this question, so she momentarily froze before replying, "Yes.""Isabel finished hers too?""Yes, it's finished.""Did she do it by herself?"Sylvia hesitated and said, "Liam helped her do it."Isabel and Liam were standing right behind them and raised their little round faces with dumbfounded expre

Not long after, Sylvia came to Odell's study with Liam and Isabel.The study was spacious and bright.Liam and Isabel sat behind his desk to do their homework on it.Sylvia moved a stool over to sit on the other side of the desk to watch them.What she had not expected was that not long after, Odell also came in.He was still wearing his suit.After he entered, he took a book from the shelf without sparing her a glance and went to the sofa to read it.It seemed that he had come in to read a book.Sylvia peeked at him twice before withdrawing her gaze to continue watching Isabel and Liam.The study was very quiet.The only occasional sound was from Liam as he taught Isabel how to do her homework.Sylvia placed her arms on the desk and rested her chin on her folded arms to stare at their cute little faces in the comfortable posture.On the sofa, the man who was reading a book raised his eyes and noticed her lounging posture at a glance.The look in his eyes softened slightly

The night passed quickly, and Sylvia came to the old Carter mansion early in the morning the next day again.Today, a tutor came to give the two little kids their lessons.Sylvia played with them all morning and accompanied them to class in the afternoon.After the teacher left, she urged them to do their homework.Liam had always been someone who would do it without any prompting, so she did not have to manage him at all. On the contrary, as soon as Isabel was asked to do her homework, she tried to think of ways to slack off, as she rolled around and acted like a spoiled child. Sylvia could not bear to be fierce to her at all, but after Liam gave her a stern look, she finally agreed to do her homework.It was only when it was time for dinner that she finished the homework assigned by the tutor with Liam's assistance.Odell also came back from work at this time.Although he was cold to her, he did not do anything to drive her away, so Sylvia stayed for dinner, put Isabel and Lia

"What?" Madam Springsteen was instantly confused.He had to watch his children study?He was at the helm of a conglomerate and was in charge of hundreds of millions worth in assets, yet he had to go home to watch his children study?Wasn't it the tutor's job to do that?"He spoils those two children too much." At the thought of the two children left by his ex-wife, Madam Springsteen also became upset."He probably isn’t doing it just to watch the children," Lily said in a cold voice.Madam Springsteen immediately looked at her. "What other reason is there? Could it be for that woman who posed as a waiter, messed up Ramona's birthday party, and made a public spectacle of herself?"Lily frowned.She was thinking that if she were Odell, she would definitely not be involved with that vulgar and lowly woman.After all, her appearance, ability, and family background was not inferior to that woman. How could he be unwilling to even have a meal with her? Perhaps that woman might have

Lily said coldly, "There’s no need to follow. We'll go back."Was that woman even worthy of being followed by her?She had only come here just to see if Odell had really gone home to see the children. Unexpectedly, in the two days she had come here, she had seen that woman emerging from the house at this time at night on both days.The woman had already divorced Odell a long time ago. What was she still doing here every day? To accompany the children?Even if that were the case, it was inappropriate for her to stay here until late at night every day!Lily's face was cold as she thought of the promise that Sylvia had made to her that day when she had gone to the hospital to visit her.'She said she already had no more feelings for Master Carter since before their divorce, and she said she wouldn't ruin my relationship with him.'So what is she doing now?'She goes to her ex-husband's house every day until late at night and even makes him come back in the evening as soon as his w

Sylvia frowned and replied, "Yes, but I went there to be with the children. I didn't do anything besides that.""You're a woman who runs to your ex-husband's house every single day and stays late into the night. How is it that you do nothing but spend time with the children?" Ramona was furious at the direct look that Sylvia was giving her and glared at her. "I think you're truly contemptible and shameless!"Sylvia's body turned cold and she immediately clenched her hands.Seeing that Sylvia continued to look as if she had not done anything wrong, Ramona sneered, "Stop pretending to act noble in front of me. If you hadn't done anything, you wouldn't have followed Thomas abroad and come back with a big belly. If you have any shame, then stay away from Odell. He has a fiancee now. You’re not even bothered about maintaining your own virtue. How dare you try to steal Lily's man?"After saying that, she barked at her driver. "Hurry up and drive. Just looking at her makes my eyes feel di

Isabel lay on Sylvia's stomach, rubbing her little face onto the stomach. "I'm sorry, baby. I didn't mean to do it. I just wanted to stay with Mommy a little longer."After saying that, the girl obediently sat behind the desk and picked up the pen. She also did not forget to call out to Liam. "Liam, hurry up and teach me how to do my homework."The little girl figured that the sooner she finished her homework, the sooner she would be able to play with her mommy and let her go back to rest early.Liam put his book down and sat next to her.Sylvia pursed her lips and forced back the stinging in her eyes....The little girl was very efficient when she decided to be serious, and she finished all her homework in less than half an hour. Then, she clung to Sylvia's side again.Sylvia smiled and kissed her, then she played games with her and Liam.When it was almost dark, Odell's car came back.Sylvia took their completed homework and came to the living room with them.The man's tal

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
