Chapter 46
The window rolled down and Isabel’s voice came piping. “Mommy, come in!”
Sylvia was stunned, and she hesitated until she heard Odell’s voice commanding, “Get in.”
Sylvia finally moved. Before she got in, she said to Tristan, “Tristan, please tell Betty and the others that I have to leave early.”
Tristan put his jacket away and forced a smile on his face. “Okay.”
Sylvia opened the door and got into the car. The interior was spacious but had limited seats
She carried Liam into her arms. The little guy was fluffy and petite He quietly leaned in his mother’s arms and even had a soft smile on his face. Isabel also quietened down and left Odell alone. However, when she saw her brother in her mother’s arms, she pouted. “Mommy, I want huggie”
Sylvia looked at Odell who wore a grim look on his face and it was obvious that he was upset.
Sylvia said to Isabel, “Isabel, Mommy is carrying Liam. I can’t hold both of you together. Why don’t you let Daddy carry you first?”
Isabel pouted harder Moments later, she turned her attention to Liam and said, “Brother, I want to switch.”
Liam usually responded to Isabel’s request, but this time, he simply grinned and said, “I’m allergic to him. Just hold on for a while.”
Isabel did not understand the rejection. She really thought Liam was allergic to Odell, so she simply hummed in disappointment.
On the other hand, Odell wore a bitter look after knowing that his son disliked him
Sylvia was beside him, so she was able to feel the grudge She even chuckled uncontrollably She did not do it on purpose, but when even the two of them disliked him, it felt great
As expected, her chuckle put a gloomy look on his face.
His lips turned into a frown as he said, “What’s so funny?”
Sylvia nervously explained, “Nothing. I was trying to sneeze. I didn’t mean to laugh or anything of the sort.”
Despite her nervous explanation, a grin was still pasted on her face
It further darkened the broodiness on his face “If I see that grin on your face again, I’ll throw you out of the car.”
Isabel punched his chest right away “You big baddie, don’t scold my Mommy!”
Odell was silenced, and Sylvia wanted to laugh even more He immediately glared at her, forcing her to put her hands over her mouth. Things soon became quiet inside the car Isabel stared outside the window for a while. She looked at the drizzle on the window and RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
grumbled, “I don’t want to go back. I still want to play.” Sylvia looked at Odell and said softly, “Odell, it’s still early. Why don’t we bring the kids somewhere else to play?” Odell did not answer. He stayed quiet for a few seconds before he said to the driver, “TO Astroland.” The driver answered. “Yes, sir.”
Sylvia’s eyes glimmered with interest. She knew Astroland was an interior playground for kids specially built for the children in the wealthy circles. Only registered members were allowed access.
The place had almost all kinds of amusement attractions for kids.
Astroland was located further in the suburb, away from the city center. It took almost 30 minutes for the car to arrive.
Odell carried Isabel out of the car, and Sylvia followed with Liam in her arms. The receptionists came up to Odell the moment they arrived and welcomed them. Moments later, they were already inside Astroland. As expected, it felt like another world inside. Every corner of the place felt like it came out of a fairy tale
The moment Isabel set foot in the place, she dragged Liam to run inside happily. Sylvia was a little worried, so she followed them inside.
