Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife
Chapter 511

Chapter 511 He grimaced.

Even after a long and uncomfortable silence, he still did not elicit a response.

He was trying to avoid the topic of divorce altogether.

Sylvia pressed the issue. “Odell, have you read the divorce settlement agreement I sent you earlier?” The unnatural silence continued to ring in her ears.

She turned her head to look at Odell, only to see him staring blankly ahead, the color on his face was drained completely. He held the steering wheel firmly with both hands and was doing his best to ignore her.

Sylvia frowned. “Odell, say something.”

He scowled. “We'll talk about it when we get back.”

His voice had become rather scratchy.

There was a tint of exhaustion in his voice.

Perhaps he was yet to get over what Tara did to him in the past, and how she made a fool out of him.

He was still driving amid all this. Sylvia was beginning to get concerned that he would mistake the accelerator for the brake pad in his emotionally unstable state.

“Alright,” she answered contently and looked out the car window. She kept quiet after that.

The rest of the car ride went without conversation.

Soon, the car parked outside Odell's house.

Sylvia unbuckled her seat belt and stepped out of the car. The first thing she thought of was Isabel and Liam.

Odell looked at her strutting inside the house with such a sense of urgency and grimaced at the sight. He stepped out of the car as well after that.

Sylvia went straight to the children’s room.

They were sound asleep in bed.

Sylvia took off her shoes and approached them.

Isabel seemed to have smelled her mother's scent even in her sleeping state. She drowsily snuggled under Sylvia's arms and wrapped her chubby arms under Sylvia's waist.

Liam simply rolled over and snuggled up to her.

Sylvia smiled at the sight of their adorable sleeping positions. She closed her eyes and fell

asleep quickly.

After a while, a jarring “creak” intruded the silence of the room. The door was carefully opened from the outside, and a tall man stepped in. He went to the bed and bent over, quietly observing Sylvia. Meanwhile, his arms involuntarily edged closer and caressed Sylvia's fair white cheeks. As he stroked her cheeks gently, the look in his eyes gradually softened.

The next morning, at dawn.

Sylvia was still asleep when she suddenly felt a weight pressing on top of her. She slowly opened her eyes to see Isabel crawling on top of her, cuddling her as a kitten would to its mother cat.

Liam, who was sleeping on the other side, was awake as well. He remained clinging to Sylvia just as he did last night.

When they noticed that Sylvia was awake, they stared at her expectantly with their pearl-like eyes. Sylvia smiled and patted their heads. “Isabel, Liam, time to get out of bed.” Isabel pouted and protested playfully, “But Mommy, I want to sleep with you a little longer.” Liam did not utter a word. He only fixed the same quaint look at Sylvia. Sylvia was just as reluctant to part with them, so she stayed with them for a while longer. It was only when Aunt Tonya appeared to call them downstairs for breakfast that Sylvia finally woke them up. Breakfast was ready for them. Odell was nowhere to be seen. He must have left already. Sylvia frowned.

She was going to discuss the details of the divorce with him after the children went to school.

It would appear that she would have to wait until after he came home.

She had breakfast with the two children along with Aunt Tonya. Then she took them to the kindergarten herself.

Upon reaching the gate of the kindergarten, Sylvia gave them a quick kiss on their cheeks. She watched them enter the kindergarten hand in hand before turning and heading back to her car. She drove to Lush Heaven without making any stop along the way. After she picked up the luggage that she had packed last night, she drove to a small residential district near the kindergarten.
