Chapter 499
Odell pursed his lips and went silent. Sylvia walked up to him. “Speak. Why aren’t you saying anything?”
The man chose to remain silent.
Sylvia sneered. “Are you still trying to imprison me to vent your emotions? The one who pushed Grandma is Melanic, Tara’s aunt. She had been taken by the police and I know there’s no one for you to lash out on, but you can’t keep doing this to me. Or you can’t bear taking it out on Tara, so you’re trying to vent your anger on me?” He simply looked at her deeply and profoundly His reaction fueled Sylvia’s anger.
She screamed, “Say something!”
He moved his lips but did not speak. His frosty expression showed a sense of ainusement.
Sylvia was angrier than before. She grabbed him by the collar and stared into his cyes. “Stop acting crazy! if you don’t want to talk, let me out!” He curled his lips and said, “I’m not letting you out of this house. What can you possibly do?”
Sylvia tightened her grip on his collar. The shrinking collar was constricting his neck, but he remained nonchalant.
Not only was he not angry, but he was also not anxious or nervous at all. He even smiled wider than before.
“I don’t!” Sylvia pushed him away and glared at him. “It’s because Tara sent you a couple of pictures and you suspected me of having an affair with Edmund. And because of that, when Grandma fell down the hill, you hold me and Edinund responsible. “You didn’t listen to me and you didn’t trust me. You imprisoned me and vent your anger on me. You even broke my leg, crushed the toy I carved for Isabel and Liam, and you even threw away my canvas and painting tools!” Her eyes got teary as she shouted but she was carried away by her anger and did not realize the tears.
She continued, “Not only that but Tara suggested you bring me to Cloudy Heart Lake and you did! You trusted her!
“I bet you didn’t know about the trap she set up just for me. She caused a scene and distracted Edward and used the food stalls to make me send Violet oss. She hired a man and held a knife at my neck. I was taken into the elevator and was forced to push the button up to the hill.
“It’s because of the leg that YOU broke, I can’t run or do anything. I was drugged and she hit me on the face. She broke the cast and fractured my bones, and she pushed me into the lake!”
