Chapter 636
There was a tremendous pound on the door from someone being flung into it. Sylvia was frightened
when she felt the tremors through the door. Odell, who was on the verge of losing his sanity, suddenly
stopped his movements. He grabbed Sylvia and dragged her several steps back, then he looked
toward the door with ominously red eyes and hissed icily. “What’s going on?” Ben, who was standing
guard outside, answered him.
“Master Carter, the second master brought… a lot of people here. We’re no match for him. You have to
go now!” he informed while struggling for breath.
It was him who was slammed against the door.
A sunken loop appeared in Odell’s eyes, then he peered at Sylvia who was bound in his arms Sylvia
glared back at him. “Odell, let me go unless you want to get beat up!” Odell smiled grimly. She felt an
inexplicable shiver run through her body. He suddenly raised his hand and turned on the lights. 1
Brightening rays of light washed over the entire space inside the box. Sylvia winced and closed her
eyes involuntarily. When she opened them again, she realized he was carrying her toward the back.
As he passed by the table, he suddenly noticed something peculiar. He reached out and grabbed a
sapphire ring set on the table which he shoved into his pocket. Then, he continued heading toward the
back.
There was a hidden door behind the box that he could sneak out of.
Sylvia looked astonished. It was not the existence of a secret door that shocked her, but the sapphire
ring she saw him stuff into his pocket.
Why did she find the ring so familiar?
Suddenly, she felt a surge of cold wind beating around her.
It was only then that she realized that they had left Lush Heaven and that they were now in a separate
outdoor parking lot.
“Odell, where are you taking me?” she asked him while struggling in his arms.
Odell ignored her. He held on tightly to her and close to his chest.
He shielded her from the cold wind with his body.
Sylvia frowned and stared at him guardedly.
Shortly after that, Odell carried her to a spacious car.
There was a driver in the car who got out of the car and opened the door immediately upon
seeing Odell arrive.
Odell flung her to the back. Then, he entered and sat next to her.
Before she could make an effort to get up, his large hand grabbed her by her waist and tugged her to
sit right next to him, so she could hardly move. 1
The car engine started. She knew that she could not possibly overpower him, but after a couple of
meager slaps on his arm, she stopped struggling. She looked outside and asked again, “Odell, where
are you taking me?” He glanced at her and answered, “We’re going to see Isabel and Liam.”
Sylvia’s expression transformed, and her restlessness immediately dissipated as well. Odell continued
to stare at her shamelessly, making the least attempt to remove his gaze from her.
Sylvia stared at him uncomfortably and confronted him. “Could you stop looking at me?”
“No.”
His tone was insistent and sharp. Sylvia turned her head away, feeling annoyed and leaving him with
the view of the back of her head.
Just a second later, he grabbed her by her chin and made her turn back to face him.
Sylvia glared grumpily at him and met his dark eyes. It was like the bottom of the ocean, devoid of light,
concealing the deepest, darkest feelings known to men. Sylvia immediately turned away again and
said, “Odell, what’s the point of doing this? Instead of wasting your effort like this, you should be
worrying about what you’re gonna do after Carter Corporation falls.”
