Chapter 109
Odell strode over angrily The fury on his face forced Sylvia to release Tara. Tara threw herself into his arms and started crying “Odell, my hand hurts.” Odell threw a look at her wrist and noticed a red swollen circle around it like a bangle. He glared at Sylvia who leaned on Tara’s car with her hands crossed and a grin pasted on her face, exuding a devil-may-care attitude.
Before Odell could question her, she proactively said, “I did it.” Odell’s gaze tumed to frost. “Are you having a death wish?” “Of course not,” Sylvia said with an even wider grin. “She wanted to slap my face first. It was just self-defense.”
Odell pursed his lips. “Do you think I’m blind
He had arrived at the moment when Sylvia slammed Tara’s wrist on the car. Sylvia protruded her lips and sighed. “If you choose to be blind, I can’t do anything about it.” Odell was speechless. He gently pushed Tara aside and strode forward to Sylvia
Nonetheless, Sylvia rernained still
Tara was the one who ran over. She held Odell’s arm back before he could strangle Sylvia’s neck
“Odell, let her go. I think she’s just worried about the kids, thus she threatened me to see them. She’s not really going to hit me,” Tara said as her eyes grew red.
Sylvia could not help but scoff at her words. Her familiar formula of playing the victim was a replay of what happened three years ago
Odell reacted even colder than before after hearing Tara.
“Where else did she hit you?” he asked. With her lips protruding, Tara said, “Just the wrist.”
“Tell me the truth.” His voice sounded like ice.
Tara feigned reluctance and said, “Well, she kicked me. twice.” Odell glared at Sylvia again. Sylvia swiftly said, “Yeah, I hit her, but…” She emphasized and prolonged the but Odell grew impatient “But what?”
Sylvia calrnly said, “I hit her not because I want to use her to threaten you. It’s because she framed me and Tristan”
Odell’s brows furrowed. “She framed you and Tristan?”
“No, I didn’t! Odell, don’t listen to her! Why would I frame her and Tristan? What for?” Tara reacted anxiously and aggrievedly.
Odell’s icy cold look warmed up a little. He said to Tara, “I believe you.”
