Chapter 569
“Shouldn’t Sebastian and the others be at Carter residence? Are they here because they miss the
kids?”
While Sylvia was baffled by the surprise visit, a black MPV drove over from next door and stopped in
front of her gate.
She knew at first glance it was Odell’s personal car.
Isabel also recognized it. She moved her short legs and ran to the gate before she shouted,” Baddie!
Are you going to work?!”
The door opened and Odell’s towering figure emerged from within. He carried the little girl into his arms
and said, “Yeah, I’m going now.” Isabel pouted. “You don’t want to eat breakfast?” “I had breakfast.”
“Oooh, okay.” The girl protruded her lips, seemingly unwilling to part with her father. Odell patted her
head. “Go play. I’ll come back and have dinner with you guys.” He then put the girl down. Then, the
man looked up to the second floor, where Sylvia’s room was.
Their gaze met mid-air and Sylvia immediately turned around to avoid it.
Odell grinned. He shot a gaze at Ben and Jacob further away to signal them. The two bodyguards
stood straight up and wore serious looks. Odell then returned to his car and left for work. Ben and
Jacob returned to the yard. One of them played with Isabel and the other one looked at the house.
The mission they received from their boss was to watch Sylvia. Whenever she left the house or
interacted with other men without the presence of a third party, they were to report it to him.
After Odell left, Sylvia came down.
Aunt Tonya was in the living room, looking bitter. She expected Sylvia to see what happened from her
room, so she said, “Syl, I heard from Sebastian that he bought the house next door and even brought
Madam Carter over.”
Annoyed, Sylvia frowned. ‘What’s this man trying to do?’ It was then Isabel ran in after seeing her
mother.
“Mommy!” Sylvia bent over and carried the girl into her arms.
The girl’s puffy face flushed as she bawled, “Mommy, Baddie is living next to us!” Sylvia awkwardly
smiled. The girl then tilted her head and asked, “But why isn’t he staying with us?” “Our house is small
and it can’t fit that many people.”
“O-Oh…”
Isabel had an odd feeling but since her mother’s words made sense, so she moved on from the topic.
After breakfast, Sylvia texted Odell.
It was the first time they texted after the divorce.
“Odell, what’s the meaning of this?”
A while later, she received a reply.
“What are you talking about?”
Sylvia choked for a few seconds.
“Why did you move next door to me? Did you forget our terms on the divorce papers?”
It clearly stated that they would stay out of each other’s life. “Do the papers forbid me from moving
there?” Sylvia was once again silenced. She gulped the grievance and decided to approach this matter
with patience. “Odell, if you want to see the kids, you can come to see them whenever you want. I
won’t keep them from you but we’re divorced and it’s inappropriate for us to continue seeing each
other.” The text went out but he did not reply this time. Sylvia frustratedly tossed her phone aside. Both
Isabel and Liar went next door to look for Madam Carter. It had also been some time since Sylvia
visited Madam Carter, so after some struggle, she went next door as well.
