Chapter 294 Sylvia would never have thought that the fantasy that she had a few years back would come true before her eyes.
However, things had changed. She could no longer feel the happiness of the warmth that she had felt in her fantasy. She gathered her thoughts and went up to the kids. After hugging and kissing them a while, she asked Odell, “Where are we taking them today?” “We‘ll be going skiing first, then we‘ll go to watch a movie.” Skiing? Sylvia was taken aback. She could not ski because Isabel had been too young back then and she had never taken the little girl to a ski resort before.
However, the look on the little girl‘s face showed just how much she looked forward to going.
Sylvia answered, “Okay.”
One by one, she carried the kids into the car.
Once the kids were seated, she got into the car.
The back seat was spacious, so she intended on sitting in between her kids.
However, just as she sat down, Odell came in through the other door to sit at the back.
There was still space at the front but he chose to cram with them in the rear seat.
Just as Sylvia was about to ask if he could move to the front, he picked Isabel up and placed her onto his lap, which freed up quite some space.
Then, he moved to sit beside Sylvia.
Sylvia was stunned.
Isabel started to grumble after being put onto his lap. “Baddie, I want mommy! I don‘t want
you!”
Odell wrapped his arms around her tiny body and said, “Mommy has to carry Liam, so she doesn‘t have the extra hands to carry you.” Hearing her brother‘s name being mentioned silenced her. She pouted and sulked but did not try to throw a tantrum anymore.
Sylvia helplessly pursed her lips before carrying Liam into her arms. In this way, Liam and Isabel were placed next to each other. Isabel squirmed a little on her father‘s lap before she crossed her arms and leaned back in her father‘s arms like a lady boss. She then asked Liam, “Brother, have you ever been to a ski resort? Is it fun?” Liam sat on his mother‘s lap obediently as he answered, “I‘ve been there once before. I think it‘s not bad.”
Isabel‘s eyes gleamed. “Then, do you know how to ski?”
“A little.”
“Teach me! Mommy never took me skiing so I don‘t know how.”
“Okay.”
Liam was not much of a talker but he always answered his chatterbox of a sister‘s question. The brother and sister then chatted happily, even though Isabel did most of the talking and Liam was just there answering.
Soon, the family of four arrived at a famous indoor ski resort in Westchester.
