Chapter 180 At Carter Tower, Odell was working in his office when the phone on the desk rang.
He put the document down and answered it after a glance at the screen.
“Grandmother, what‘s the matter?”
Madam Carter told him about Isabel‘s movie shoot that would start tomorrow. She also said, “ Isabel has always wanted to shoot a movie, and she really loves to act. Why don‘t you let her go have a try? Syl will be with her all the time to take care of her.” Odell reacted rather coldly.

He just did not want his children‘s lives to be overly enlarged under the public‘s eye, but he did not want to kill his children‘s interest just because of his disinterest.
As he mulled over it, his finger slid across his screen and dialed Sylvia‘s number.
Sylvia was mixing paint to paint when her phone rang. When she saw Odell‘s name on the caller ID, she was stunned for a slight moment before she answered it.
The man‘s cold voice entered her ears. “Give me the address of Isabel‘s shoot and print out all the details about the production crew. I want them delivered to my office.”‘
Sylvia frowned. He could have asked for a soft copy to be sent over via smartphone, but he requested a hard copy instead.
Before she could voice her grumble, Odell added, “I‘ll be going on a business trip in an hour, so if it‘s not here within the hour, you don‘t need to accompany Isabel to her shoot anymore.” The phone hung up right after his words subsided. “Crazy fool!”
Sylvia was heart–stricken. She put her paint down and prepared to go out.
Sylvia prepared as fast as she could but it still took her a full hour to reach his office.
Fortunately, when she got out of the car, she saw Odell striding out from his group of followers, led by Cliff.
“Odell!” she shouted.
Odell stopped and stared at her while Cliff and the others wisely stepped aside.
Sylvia was still in the wheelchair, and it was Tom who pushed her over. She passed him the documents she prepared when she was close enough.

“These are the information you wanted on the production crew,” she said.
Odell glanced at her face.
It was the beginning of winter, and the weather was getting cold, but her face was flushed and there were beads of sweat on her forehead. She came here in a hurry.
