Slam!

The reply that Tara got was Tom slamming the door close.

She was leftalone on the spot as the car drove away. Her fists clenched tightly and she said with a cold grin, “You… I bet it must suck for you.”

A while later, the distresson her face faded. She kept replaying the scene where the influential figures of the art association had surrounded Sylvia and how the tourists had admired her.

What fueled her anger was that the tourists ignoredall her paintings just because of some comments from Sylvia.

Those who simply got a recognition award from the competition even got a few of their works sold, and yet Tara, the bronze prize winner, did not even sell a single piece.

It was the biggest insult she received since she stepped into the art world.

She was deeply irritated.

A while later, where her irritation faded a little, she called Odell.

The moment the callgot through, her eyes turned red. With a sobbing tone, she said in a grievance, “Odell, where are you? C

an I go to you now?”

On the other end of the call, Odell was working on some documents in his office. Hearing

Tara‘s sobbing tone, he furrowed his brows. He asked, “What happened?”

Tara sobbed. “The art association hosted an exhibition for the winners of the competition, and everyone but me sold at least one piece of artwork. I feel really bad.”

Odell pursed his lips.

Her paintings were nothing decent, but she was still the bronze prize winner, and it should not have turned out as bad as it did with her not selling a single piece of artwork.

He asked, “What happened?”

“I don‘t know. There were some tourists who were interested in my work, butafter Sylvia talked to them, they did not even look at my work anymore.”

Odell was slightly surprised. “Sylvia was there?” “Yeah. She was invited bythe president.” Tara continued sobbing, “I already apologized to her for trying to matchmake her with Tristan, but she did not accept it at all. Does she hate me now?”

Odell went silent for a few seconds before he continued, “Go home first. I have something urgent to do and I‘ll go replace you when I‘m done.”

Tara immediately said, “Okay, I‘ll wait for you at home.” The call ended.

Tara wipedher fake tears away and grinned coldly. There was an obvious scene of coldness in between Odell‘s words from the call, so he must be

angry.

‘l‘ll just cry like a baby when he comes later, and he will definitely help me teach that bitch a lesson!”

It was still early when Sylvia came home, so she helped Aunt Tonya prepare some snacks before she wenaround 7 o‘clock. She had arrived early for two days now, and Madam Carter even talked to the guard at tentrance. However, Sylvia arrived at a tightly shut gate today. She saw theguard, Todd, beside the gate and smiled at him. “Todd, can you open the gate? I‘m here to see the kids.”

Todd had a glance before he retracted his gaze and stood still like a rock. He did not move or talk to her.

–

While Sylvia was baffledby his reaction, a powerful voice came from behind her. “Who told you to come over at this hour?”

Surprised, she turned around and saw the man who managed to sneak up on her. His arms were crossedshadowed features, his eyes were glaring at her coldly.

Sylvia reacted with a shifting gaze. He was not home yet when she came over for the pasttwo days, so what made him return home earlier today? A quick thought later, she decided to play dumb athought it was 8 o‘clock already.”

Odell had no comeback for that. She really believed that he did notknow she came earlier for the past two days. He glared at her and said, “I heard you went to an artexhibition today.”
