Chapter 78
Why? The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. It had been three years, and she was still living under his shadow.
An accumulation of rage gushed up to her mind.
she straightened her face and texted back. “I won’t quit and I won’t move. I will see my children!”
The chat window went quiet for a few minutes.
Then, Odell’s reply came. “Hmph. You think you can do that alone?”
“Alone. We’ll see about that.”
After sending the last text, Sylvia tossed her phone on the bed angrily.
Meanwhile, at Carter Residence, Odell was sitting on the couch in the gray master bedroom. When he saw the text Sylvia sent him, the storminess on his face intensified.
She’s really over her head now, and it seems like a lesson is needed.’
He then called the butler.
“Increase two more bodyguards in the front and back. Do not let Sylvia come near the house.”
The next afternoon, Sylvia finished work early and arrived at the kindergarten half an hour earlier than usual. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
However, before she could park her car, Ben, Jacob, and two new bodyguards came to her and stopped her.
Sylvia rolled the window down and said with a stern face, “Move.”
Ben and Jacob found themselves in a sticky situation.
“Ms. Ross, Master Carter gave the order. You are not allowed to fetch Isabel and Liam, and if you do, we will be fired,” Ben said.
Jacob echoed, “Yeah, Ms. Ross. Please go home. Don’t give us a hard time.”
They really did not want to be rough with Sylvia.
Sylvia swallowed her pride and turned the car around. She did not leave though. Instead, she parked further away and watched from afar
Ben and Jacob drove a seven-seater SUV.
When it was time, they drove to the entrance and picked Isabel and Liam up.
All Sylvia could see were two tiny figures going inside; she could not even see their faces. She frowned as she persistently followed them to the Old District.
Then, before her car even got close to the street where Carter Residence was located, bodyguards came out and stopped her. Sylvia turned the car around and tried to go in through the other entrance but was stopped as well.
The entire mansion was surrounded by a barrier of bodyguards, so she could not even get close.
Sylvia was forced to leave. At the same time, Isabel and Liam arrived home with sulky expressions. They went back to their room.
Isabel pouted. “Mommy did not come to pick us up again.” “I saw Mommy’s car following us on the way back,” Liam said. Isabel did not understand her brother. “Then, why Mommy didn’t pick us up herself?” Liam frowned. “Maybe Daddy won’t let Mommy pick us up again.” “That big baddie! I’ll go talk to him!” Isabel angrily jumped down from the chair. Liam, however, held her back. “Let’s go to Great-grandma instead.”
Isabel remained annoyed, “Why? It’s not like Great-grandma can control him.”
Liam curled his lips and patiently said, “We go to Great-grandma and ask her to bring us to Mommy.?
A few minutes later, the two arrived in the living room.
