Chapter 20 Half an hour later, at the Carters’, a black car appeared and pulled up in front of the entrance. A bodyguard pushed the door open, revealing Odell who stepped out of the car with Isabel in his arms.
The child’s eyes and nose were glowing red, and her cheeks were puffed up like a ball. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and turned to look away from Odell.
She remained in that position the entire time, so all Odell saw was the back of her head. Odell only frowned wordlessly and carried her firmly in his arms as he strode past the entrance.
Soon, they arrived at Liam’s room.
Liam was sitting on the bed holding his phone in an absent state of mind. When he saw Odell carrying Isabel in, his dull, lifeless eyes suddenly turned vibrant again. Madam Carter who was accompanying him was similarly stunned. “Isabel?”
Odell put the little girl down. Immediately, Isabel raised her foot and proceeded to deliberately stomp on his shoe mercilessly. Odell hardly reacted at all. He did not even blink.
After that, Isabel took off and ran toward Liam.
“Brother!” She climbed into Liam’s bed.
Liam immediately took her into his arms and made her sit on the inner side of the bed.
Them, the two children glared at Odell together. Odell pursed his lips. Madam Carter was puzzled by this scene. “Liam, did you send for Isabel?” Odell looked at the two children and muttered a short answer, “Hmm.”
Madam Carter turned to Isabel again. She could tell that Isabel had been crying for some time judging by how red her nose and eyes were. She continued pursuing the topic, “How did you bring her here? Did her family even agree to this?”
Odell’s eyes flickered slightly as he answered, “Sylvia is her mother.”
