Now that he recalled everything that happened that day, he was beginning to notice many peculiarly odd details… Which meant that she had been lying to him ever since that time? She never meant to go with Thomas. She only went to Galston with him to save Aunt Tonya and the children! He balled his hand into a fist and fell into an ominous silence for a long time. At last, he spoke, “How did she come to be depressed?” “Sigh… After she went to Galston, she did everything she could to sneak back to Westchester City but Thomas caught her every time. He had several people's hands chopped off to intimidate her and to send a message. This isn’t even the worst of it because later, he separated me from her and had her locked in a room where she could not even see the light of the sun or tell what time of the day it was. He locked her up in there like an animal for three months before he finally let her out. I don’t even know what he did to her in those three grueling months. By the ti

”Yes, everything there is to know,” Odell spoke with a tint of ice in his voice. Sylvia twitched her lips. Odell refused to avert his intent gaze from her. A stark silence descended upon the room. “Why didn’t you tell me?” he suddenly asked, breaking the silence. Sylvia tried to avoid his gaze and wanted to play it off. “Tell you what?” “That he forced you to go to Galston with him, that he was the reason you ended up with depression, and to tell me that the boy is my son!” He became more infuriated as he went on. He was practically shouting toward the end of his sentence. Sylvia was not as frightened as she thought she would be. Not only was she not afraid of his outburst, but she even found herself laughing uncontrollably like a mad woman. She mocked him, "You’re already engaged. What’s the point of telling you all this to begin with?” She originally intended to tell him. On the plane back to Westchester City from Galston, she had already composed everyt

Odell seemed greatly affected by this. "When did you come?”“I went that morning immediately after Isabel called me to tell me that you got into a car accident. When I got there, I wasn’t expecting both Lily and Madam Springsteen to show up at the same time so I was afraid to head up there to see you because they were there as well. I hid somewhere and waited until they came out. That was when I heard them mention that you were fine, and I ended up leaving after that.” Sylvia relayed everything that happened during her visit to the hospital that day. Odell frowned. He remembered that Lily and Madam Springsteen had come rather early that day and had stayed with him nearly the entire noon before leaving. It was only after Lily left that afternoon that he asked Cliff to send someone to spy on Sylvia, only to learn that she had been staying at home all day, doing nothing. At the time, he thought that she could not be bothered to see him at all. Never in his wildest dreams woul

Sylvia sheathed the sharp look in her eyes and softened her tone, "When did you turn around?" “Just now.” As soon Odell answered, he drew closer to the bed and leaned in toward Sylvia. He took her chin in his hand and said with a coy smile, “Repeat what you just said." Sylvia repeated, slightly puzzled, "When did you turn around?” “No, the previous sentence.” Sylvia’s confusion was ever-growing. She looked at him evasively. His handsome face was only inches from her. He had a self-satisfied smile and seemed rather amused by the current situation. How was he so amused when Sylvia was upset at him only a moment ago? Unsure of what was on his mind, Sylvia decided to play it off. "I forgot what I said.” "Huh?" Odell grunted icily. Sylvia's eyes narrowed and she carefully whispered, “I said, who told you to turn around?" “You said it in a different tone just now,” he said with a stern look on his face. Sylvia added a tint of aggression to her voice, "W

"You... When did you wake up?" She rubbed her eyes, acting as if she had just woken up. Odell leaned in closer, drawing his handsome face only inches away from hers. He smiled mischievously at her. Sylvia made a look and muttered, “You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to.” “I woke up just a little earlier than you," he stated. “Ah.” Sylvia tried to turn away to look the other way. The moment she turned, Odell grabbed her by her chin and made her turn to face him. He applied just enough strength so that she could not resist him, but not to a point where it would hurt her. She stared pointedly at him. “Is something the matter?” she asked meekly. "Nothing, I just wanted to see your face.” He observed her like she was a curious experiment subject. There was no longer the same look of hostility on his face. He seemed considerably more pleasant than when he was talking to Lily. Sylvia endured his gaze and suddenly smiled. She flashed such a b
