Before Sylvia could say anything, Tristan strode off to his car, leaving her frowning. She had a bad feeling about his response, but it was time for Isabel and Liam to come home, so she had to leave too. …Tristan went home right after that. Tristan’s parents, Bruce and Catherine, were chatting in the living room. He went up to them with a serious expression and declared, “I don’t lIke Sonia.” “You guys barely met. Just go out more and develop your relationship,” Bruce said.The Rosses and the Ledgers had a strong business relationship over the years. Although it was the Rosses who had proposed the marriage, Bruce felt it was only appropriate. After all, Sonia was appointed the heir of the Rosses, and Tristan was the only son of the Ledgers, so the union between the two families was nothing less than a great decision. Tristan confessed, “There's someone I like.” Bruce frowned. “Tristan, who might that be? Which family is she from?” Catherine asked.“I can’t tell yo

Tara’s expression turned icy. She did not expect the dumb girl to have a smart mother. However, she was able to regain her composure and feigned a smile. “Congratulations, Sonia. When Mrs. Ross is done with Sylvia, you will finally be able to be with Tristan.” “Tara, I actually called wanting to ask you how to capture a man’s heart,” Sonia asked with admiration. “Master Odell divorced Sylvia because of you and even tussled with his mother for so long, yet he’s still together with you. He must love you to death.” Tara basked in the glow of admiration. It put a grin on her face. Then, Sonia added, “How do you make Master Odell love you that much?” Tara froze. Her gaze turned distant and empty as if she sank into a distant memory. It even put a cold and guilty look on her face. She recovered after a while and continued smiling. “I don’t know how I should put it, but maybe I’m simply Odell’s type.” Sonia was persistent. “Don’t you have a way to capture Odell’s heart?” Tara gr

Sylvia looked straight into Catherine’s eyes and sincerely said, “You’re thinking too much. I came back to Westchester to be with my children. Wherever my children are, that's where I go. They are now in Westchester, so I won’t leave this city.” Catherine was a little surprised. “Are you saying you work at Tristan’s studio because of your children?” “I purely work there for the sake of working.” Catherine scoffed. “Then, why did you choose Tristan’s studio in the first place?” “It was just a coincidence. When I first applied for the job, I did not know it belonged to Tristan.” Catherine remained dubious. She did not believe what Sylvia said. Sylvia added, “Mrs. Ross, Tristan is a great person, but I don’t like him.” “If you don’t like him and you won’t leave Westchester, then I believe you can at least leave the studio.” Sylvia was slightly stunned. She had thought of leaving before because Odell had once threatened her with the kids and also because Tristan had confess

Half an hour later, the black supercar parked in front of the Carters’ mansion. Odell came down. The bodyguards got nervous when they saw him. “Master Odell, I thought you were having a meeting? Why are you back so soon?” Odell reacted coldly. He glared at them and asked, “How did you know I was in a meeting?” He did not tell Madam Carter that he was having a meeting; not even the butler knew. The bodyguard was stunned. Tension piled up as he stuttered, “I-I heard it…from someone…” Odell glared at the bodyguard before he strode into the living room. Madam Carter and the butler were chatting with the other servants in the living room. When he came in, everyone was stunned. Even Madam Carter showed nervousness on her face. Odell looked around and asked, “Grandmother, where’s Liam and Isabel?” Madam Carter tightened her lips. “Uh… They went out to play.” Odell frowned. “Where?” “I don’t know. They said they were bored at home, so I told Jacob and Ben to take them o

Odell looked at her and said, “I’m thirsty.” “There’s a water dispenser over there. You can get a cup and pour yourself a glass of water.” Odell did not move and simply stared at her. Sylvia ignored everything about him. Isabel had enough of the awkwardness. She pouted and said, “Big baddie, can’t you move by yourself? Where are your hands and legs?” It was then that Liam got up with his little cup and went over to get some fruit juice. Maybe it was intentional, but he got up slowly, walked over slowly, and got himself more fruit juice slowly. He did everything slower than usual, as if he was trying to show someone how to get a drink.Isabel raised a brow and then said to Odell, “Big baddie, if you don’t know how to get yourself a drink, watch and learn.” Odell could not tolerate the scornful remarks anymore. He got up, poured himself a glass of water, and drained it to the last drop. Then, he turned to the kids and stated, “It’s time to go home.” Isabel grunted. “I’m
