Chapter 428
At Sylvia’s emotionless reaction, Odell grew even angrier. He tried his best to suppress his rage and asked coldly, “Did you hear me?”
Sylvia replied, “Loud and clear.”
Her answer was instantaneous but there was still no emotion on her face.
Odell’s expression grew dark and he felt as if the raging fire in his body could burn the whole house down.
He asked, “Sylvia Ross, have I not been kind to you?”
Sylvia did not answer nor did she show any emotion.
Odell released her chin and turned around to flip her desk to the floor.
Crash!
Everything on the desk, from her wood blocks and carving tools to the finished carvings, fell to the floor.
The two new carvings she had made for Isabel and Liam were also completely crushed by the table.
Sylvia was shocked and began bending forward to pick up her things.
Just as she did so, Odell’s hand gripped her shoulder.
His hand pressed down into her shoulder, not at all wanting to give her the chance to pick up her things.
She glared at him venomously. “Let go of me!”
Odell did not budge and his lips pulled into a smirk. “So you haven’t turned into an idiot, I see.”
Sylvia did not want to argue with him so she pushed him away with all her might.
Odell used her force to pull Sylvia into his embrace, effectively trapping her against him.
Sylvia was immediately rendered helpless.
She looked up and sent Odell another venomous glare.
Odell looked down to meet her angry eyes with his mirthful ones that also seemed to flash with ridicule.
It was like he was a superior being looking down on someone that fought back despite not having the ability to do so.
Sylvia was using all the strength she could muster yet she still could not push him away.
Odell threatened, “You better act properly from now on. If you want to continue acting like a mindless idiot, I’ll make it so that you can’t carve anything!”
Sylvia turned her face away, not wanting to look at Odell anymore.
Odell instantly turned her face back to face him so that their eyes were meeting once more. At that moment, his phone started to ring.
He immediately released Sylvia to check who was calling
It was Cliff Bogard.
Cliff would never call so late in the day unless there was something important to report.
Odell quickly answered the call.
Through the phone, Odell hastily said, “Master Carter, Second Master Carter is coming back. He’ll be on a flight tonight and is probably boarding the plane right now. He’ll be arriving in Westchester City in the morning.”
Odell’s eyes turned completely cold. “Why is he coming back?”
Cliff answered, “The person in charge of supervising him said that he didn’t bring anything with him and is on the flight alone. He must have found out about Madam Carter’s condition and is coming back to see her.”
“Understood.” Odell relaxed slightly and continued, “Send a few people to the airport to watch for him. As soon as he gets off the plane, I want a tight surveillance to be kept on him.” “Yes, Master Carter. I’ll have it arranged at once.”
