Semua Bab Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife: Bab 531 - Bab 540

Sylvia chuckled at this sight and woke up them gently. “Isabel, Liam, it’s time to wake up.” Liam was the first to open his eyes. Isabel woke up right after that and drowsily burrowed herself into Sylvia’s arms. Sylvia sat down on the edge of the bed and shared an intimate hug with both the kids for a moment. After they had fully woken up, she helped them get dressed. When they had washed up, they went to the living room. Aunt Tonya had already made breakfast for them. She made Eggs Benedict which was one of both Liam and Isabel’s favorite dishes. After breakfast, Sylvia took them to kindergarten. … Their days were simple and carefree, and three days passed in the blink of an eye. It was soon Friday. Sylvia arrived at the gate of the kindergarten around evening, just in time to pick up Liam and Isabel. Then, she took them home. While Aunt Tonya was busy with dinner, Sylvia played with the kids in the living room. Isabel was lying across her arms, her attentio

It was evening, and the sky was gradually darkening. Sylvia was painting in the studio when Isabel's cheerful voice tore through the quaint space of the house. "Mommy, we’re back!” Sylvia got up and went to the window to see Isabel running in from outside. She was holding two trinkets that looked like toys in her hands, and she waved them around as she ran. The toy would catch and reflect light occasionally. Meanwhile, Liam had also stepped out of the car. His demeanor was a sharp contrast to Isabel’s. He tucked his hands into his pockets and walked calmly and silently. The driver then closed the door. The man in the car did not get out. Sylvia glanced at the car before turning and walking out of her room. When she arrived at the living room, Isabel had already run in. "Mommy, look! I won these balls from some skinny guy today!” She showed off the two colored balls in her hands to Sylvia. Sylvia smiled and praised her, “Great job, Isabel.” “Look, they can e

Sylvia gave a troubled look. They walked out of the restaurant together and strolled along a path leading back to the academy. Sylvia spoke her mind, “Thomas, please let me pay the bill next time.” Although she was divorced from Odell, she still considered Thomas her younger brother. Furthermore, he had rescued her not once but twice in her times of greatest need. She simply did not know how she could ever repay the favor she owed him, and she certainly could not have Thomas paying for her food. “Yeah.” He grunted. Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, they reached the academy office, beside which was his office. After saying their goodbyes, the two of them went back to their respective offices. ...... Since Sylvia did not teach academic courses, her classes had a looser structure. She had prepared everything in advance, and the students had very good dynamics with her as well. The two classes she taught turned out to be very relaxing and produ

Leah seemed to have obtained a satisfactory answer, so she remarked, “I see.” After some small talk, she took her things and left. Sylvia got a little more rest after that. There was only a single partition wall separating her office from the next office. At the same time, there was a lanky figure of a man leaning against the wall. The partition walls were made of wood and were not exactly known for having good sound insulation. He could overhear the conversation in the neighboring office just by leaning against the wall. A brother? Did she still think of him as nothing more than a brother even till now? ...... Fast forward to Friday, around evening, Sylvia arrived at the kindergarten on time to pick up the kids. She led each of them in one hand. Since tomorrow was the weekend, Isabel was skipping along and seemed very happy. Liam was the exact opposite of her. She trailed behind Sylvia without a word. There was no telling what was on his mind, and he seem

The weekend passed in the blink of an eye. On Monday morning, Sylvia took Isabel and Liam to kindergarten, and after dropping them off, she went to the academy. The weather was getting cold, and there was already a sheet of ice floating atop the surface of the lake near the school. Sylvia walked in the direction of the office. The surface of the steps on the stairs was glittering because someone had spilled water on the stairs. After taking two steps up the stairs, Sylvia slipped and felt her body toppling backward. She was thrown off guard instantly and nearly shrieked when suddenly, she felt an arm reaching from behind and wrapping itself around her waist. She was already thrown off balance as she fell backward into a broad and muscular chest. "Are you alright?" She heard the voice of a man filled with concern. She composed herself and quickly stood up and thanked her savior with a smile, "I'm fine. Thanks, Thomas.” Thomas cautioned, “Be careful. The floor
