Chapter 791

It was too late to regret her earlier decision now and it would be inappropriate for her to leave at this stage. It would also be a terrible idea for her to meet Odell face to face. “Sylvia, I saw Master Carter looking at you,” whispered Simon to her. Sylvia was slightly surprised. “Are you sure you weren’t seeing things?” “My eyesight is very good, so I’m sure of it.” Sylvia remained silent. Even if Odell had been looking at her, there was no way he would have come running over to her.“However, it looks like he’s going over to Master Springsteen with Lily, so I think he’s going to greet the old man,” Simon said. Sylvia pursed her lips. ‘See, I knew he had not come here for me.’ Sylvia lifted her head up and looked in that direction. She was roughly a dozen meters away but due to Odell’s towering figure, she was able to spot him at one glance. However, all she could see was his back. He was standing beside Lily as he talked to Master Springsteen. The two of th

Mr. Carmine turned to the voice, as did Sylvia. Lily was standing about a meter away from the crowd with Odell beside her. The man’s upright figure and handsome looks stood out from the others. When Sylvia turned around, she found him looking at her with his deep gaze. The cold look on his face shielded his thoughts from her. Sylvia locked eyes with him for a second before she looked away. Mr. Carmine smiled and asked, “Lily, are you trying to flatter me?” “Of course not. I’m telling the truth,” Lily said with a smile. Mr. Carmine was over the moon because of the praise. He then shot a displeased gaze at Sylvia, expressing his annoyance. Sylvia frowned. Simon wanted to step up to defend her. He disliked the man’s attitude and wanted to comment on his painting as well but Sylvia stopped him. She then said to Mr. Carmine, “Ms. Springsteen is right. Your painting is impressive, it’s me who is short-sighted.” Only then did Mr. Carmine give her a slight smile. “You’re

“It’s not necessary. I know what level she’s at,” Master Springsteen said. Odell’s entrance into the rest area caught Master Springsteen’s attention. With a polite nod to Master Springsteen, Odell then sat down on the other side of the couch. Master Springsteen glanced at him a few times before continuing to sip on his tea. …As soon as Lily started painting, the hall quieted down. Sylvia, Simon and Christopher left the crowd and sat down, but Christopher’s extroverted side soon drew him back to the crowd. Sylvia continued to sit with Simon.“Sylvia, are you alright?” Simon asked. Earlier, Ramona had been mocking Sylvia about her status as an ex-wife. Then, Mr. Carmine had given her a hard time. Even as a bystander, Simon had not been able to stand the insults, let alone the victim herself. Sylvia pursed her lips and said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry.” She had been able to put up with the insults so far. Simon felt relieved after seeing her relaxed expression. It was

Sylvia pursed her lips. To be honest, anyone from the Westchester Art Association could do better than her. But if Sylvia chose to be honest, she would definitely make Lily unhappy. As Sylvia was pondering how to resolve this dilemma, Christopher stepped in with a smile, “Ah, naturally Ms. Springsteen’s skills are on par with the professionals.” Lily looked at Sylvia excitedly, “Really?” “Yeah, really,” was Sylvia’s stilted reply.Lily smiled brightly. Before Sylvia could breathe a sigh of relief, Lily added, “Ms. Ross, I heard that your paintings are hard to find. Why don’t you do a demonstration for us and enlighten us with your skills?” The hall quieted down once again as everyone turned their attention to Sylvia. Sylvia was stunned. She choked on her words for a few seconds before she successfully uttered a full sentence. “Ms. Springsteen is too kind, but I don’t have any inspiration now. Perhaps another time?” “It’s you who’s being humble, Ms. Ross. You are the fa

The hall went quiet for a while. Shortly after Sylvia had started painting, some people in the crowd gasped.Several people started to grumble and some started to whisper. “What is this?” “It’s a blob of black. Even my dog can paint better than her.” “Isn’t she a famous artist? Is that all she’s got?” “God knows. Ms. Springsteen is a lot better than her, yet she calls herself a master artist.” Surrounded by the crowd, Sylvia was standing stiffly in front of the table with the brush in her hand. She had only painted a black blob on the paper before her. There was no pattern and no shapes to it whatsoever. She had no idea what to paint and while she was struggling with her thoughts, she had heard the crowd commenting on her skills. Everyone mocked her and belittled her for her poor performance. Their words woke her up from her trance. Then, when she saw what she had drawn on the paper, the brush fell from her hand. Her limbs went cold and her body stiffened. The

Master Springsteen came over with the help of his assistant. He shot a fierce glance at Ramona and Madam Springsteen before he scanned the crowd coldly. “Sylvia and Simon are my guests and you people insulted them in front of me? Are any of you unhappy with me?” The few of them from the crowd who insulted Sylvia and Simon immediately looked down in shame. The others shut their mouths and put on a serious look. Then, Master Springsteen looked at Sylvia and Simon. He said with a sigh, “I’m sorry about this.” Simon answered, “Master Springsteen, it’s not you who insulted us, it’s them. You don’t need to apologize on behalf of them.” Christopher then stepped in and said, “Master Springsteen, Simon had always been a straightforward person. Please excuse his frankness.” “It’s fine. He’s right.” Master Springsteen then looked at Sylvia. As the harsh criticism faded, Sylvia’s emotion returned to normal for a bit and when she sensed Master Springsteen’s gaze, she regrouped her

Odell hummed a reply. “Can I trouble you to give me a ride? Grandmother and Aunt Ramona left already and I don’t have a ride,” she said as she quivered in the breeze. Odell frowned in annoyance. It was then several figures opposite the road came under the street lamp, and one of them was Sylvia. The car that came to pick them up stopped in front of them. Sylvia got into the car first and then Christopher and Simon followed. The car drove away after that. The car was left in the direction of Sylvia’s place, so it was likely that they were sending her home. Odell’s frosty look eased up. He retracted his gaze and said to Lily, “Come with me.” Lily curled her lips and followed him. The driver soon drove the car around. Odell got into the rear seat and Lily sat beside him. She had a peek at his handsome face, but it was cold and expressionless, similar to when he was still inside the event hall. Lily believed that after seeing Sylvia painted worse than her and being

Meanwhile, another black MPV cruised on the road smoothly and arrived at the Springsteen family’s mansion in less than 20 minutes. “Master Carter, thank you for sending me home,” Lily said with a sweet smile. “You’re welcome,” he answered coldly. Lily noticed the grumpy look and she assumed it was because of Sylvia’s embarrassment, so she got out of the car without saying anything. “Goodnight, Master Carter.” Lily waved at him and then headed into the house. The car drove away as soon as she walked in. It was quiet inside the car. The man’s eyes were glued to the front and his expression was frosty as usual. He had a glance at his watch. It had been 20-plus minutes since they left the hotel and since that woman was living near the Art Academy, she should have gotten home by now. He took his phone out and texted her. The last message he received from her was her updating him about the kids’ homework. A few seconds of hesitation later, he started typing. “Are yo

“Why didn’t you answer my call?” he asked again. Sylvia clutched her towel tightly and pointed at her bed, whispering, “I was in the bathroom. My phone is left charging by the bed. I didn’t hear anything.” “What took you so long inside the bathroom?” he continued to voice his annoyance. Sylvia pursed her lips and said, “It’s just half an hour…” He stared at her protruded lips. His gaze felt cold and dominating, and her rounded eyes felt meek and helpless. They locked eyes for a few seconds before the man looked down at the towel around her chest. “You don’t wear clothes at home?” he asked. “I just came out from the shower. I didn’t even get the chance to put anything on,” she said in a small voice. The man’s expression remained frosty. “You have to put something on even after a shower. What if someone comes in?” “I’ve locked the door…” “Someone still can come in even if you lock the door.” “No one else came in other than you.” Odell was rendered speechless.

His towering figure surrounded her like iron walls. She got nervous and her face got redder. He chuckled at her reaction. He lifted her face and kissed her again until he felt pain on his lips once more. He gasped in pain and was forced to release her lips. He stared at her coldly and she reacted by shrinking her neck meekly. He grunted and then held the back of her neck. Just before they locked their lips again, she said, “Odell, I’m still pregnant. Don’t do this, please.” His hand froze and he stared at her blankly. Her eyes were reddish and teary. She was begging for him to stop as if she was worried that he would hurt the baby in her belly. Disgust rose all of a sudden and he took a step back. Sylvia held the towel around her chest with one hand and hugged her belly with the other. She was in a defensive stance. He glared at her coldly and then decided to leave the room. His towering figure disappeared from her sight in the blink of an eye, and the door was
