Chapter 210 (Yeah. I‘m full already.” Odell wiped his hands and addressed Tara again, “I have something I need to do later. You just get an early rest.”
Tara took his arm into hers and fixed him with a longing look, pressing her body into his almost subconsciously. She whispered, “Odell, Liam and Isabel should have fallen asleep by this time. Why don‘t you stay with me tonight?” Odell fell silent for a moment before forming an answer, “I need to head back to the company to deal with something.” “Okay.” Tara let go of him reluctantly. Odell caressed her head gently as if to provide comfort, then he got up and walked out. Tara did not think much of the episode. He had always been very busy since the day she knew him, especially since Sylvia birthed those two brats to add to his trouble. Even before Sylvia brought Isabel into the picture, he seldom spent the night with her because he needed to go home to take care of the miserable brat, Liam. It was partially because the brat
stayed with Madam Carter, forcing Odell to move back from his place to the Madam’s. He simply had too many responsibilities in the company, so even if he spent the night at her place, he would end up spending the night in the study. Furthermore, her miscarriage had made her body especially vulnerable and she could no. longer have children since doing so maybe bring about life–threatening complications. Odell was extremely worried about something terrible happening to her and treated her like fine china, resulting in him avoiding nearly all physical contact with her. The thought that she could not get pregnant again greatly infuriated Tara. This was all the fault of that wretched Sylvia! She had to throw herself off the stairs to force Odell‘s hand in divorcing Sylvia! Although the truth was that she never planned to birth the child, to begin with, that fall had caused more complications to her health than she bargained for!

A black sports car was darting across the highway. Within twenty minutes, the car had arrived and stopped outside the door of the old residence. He peeked at the time. It was just past nine o‘clock, and that woman probably was still around.
Just as he was about to step out of the car, he noticed a slender figure emerging from the door.
Odell turned his head in that direction.
The weather was rather cold, so Sylvia was rubbing her hands together despite wearing a thick jacket. There was a thick layer of scarf wrapped around her feathered collar as well.
Under the gentle moonlight, her fair cheeks seemed whiter and more reflective than usual.
They seem to exude a fine light on their own.
