Chapter 1333

Upon returning to the room, Sylvia figured that the children were probably still awake. She sent pictures of the painting she drewtoday as well as some of the scenery she had taken on her phone to the group chat.

Ding!Liam's picture popped up on her phone’s notification. She played the audio message, “Wow- It’s so pretty ~*

>>

Judging by the soft, enthusiastic cry, it must be Flint on Liam’s phone.

It was quickly followed by Isabel's curious voice, “Mom, why is there so much snow everywhere?”

Sylvia grinned and replied, “It’s winter here all year

round so there’s snow all the time. It hardly has time to melt before a new pile of snow falls on top.”

Isabel gasped, “Oh~”

She suddenly asked, “Mom, didn’t you take pictures of

yourself?”

“Mommy, | miss you.” It was Flint on Liam's phone again.

Sylvia smiled and answered, “Mommy forgot to take pictures today. Why don’t | take one for you kids right now?”Flint continued hogging Liam’s phone. “Okay!”

Sylvia approached the window and took a selfie, making sure to frame the snow-covered terrain outside that was illuminated bythe streetlights. She sent it to the group.

Meanwhile, at Westchester which was thousands of miles

away from where she was.

At Carter’s Residence.

Isabel, Liam, and Flint were all huddled together in the

playroom.

Isabel was staring intently at her phone.

Flint sat next to Liam and peeked intently at the phone in

Liam’s hand as well.

The moment they received the picture and saw their

mother’s face appear on the phone’s display, the closed door was suddenly flung open.Atall and overpowering figure sucked the air out of the

room.

The three children immediately tensed up. Isabel and Liam quickly stuffed their phones into their pocketswithout skipping a beat.

Odell stood at the doorway and swept an inquisitive look over the childcare’s faces. “Why aren’t you guys back inyour room yet?”

Isabel spoke up, “We'll go right now.”

Flint chanted, “Room, room.

i)

Odell eyed them suspiciously. “I'll be in your rooms in

ten minutes to check up on you. If | see you kids still

awake, I'll have this room locked up so none of you can

ever come in here again.”

Isabel scowled, “Okay.”

Flint murmured something indiscernible.

Liam remained silent.

Odell turned and walked out.

Liam stood up and carried Flint in his arms.

Isabel did not continue to dawdle around either. She

made sure her phone was with her and quickly went back to her room.

After they returned to their respective rooms, they continued chatting with Sylvia on their phones.

Meanwhile, Odell, who had just returned to the bedroom he once shared with Sylvia, picked up his phone that had been blaringwith messages all day.

Sylvia waited for quite some time after sending the selfie before she finally saw replies inside the group. She wondered if it wasan issue with the internet connection.

Flint hogged Liam’s phone for himself and was busytexting Sylvia, “Mommy is so pretty, pretty Mommy.”Isabel complained, “Flint, could you stop talking like a

little baby? Be a man.”

Flint retorted, “I’m a baby! I'll be a man when | grow up.”Isabel quipped, “Yikes, I’m going to throw up my dinner if you keep saying that.”Flint seemed to not understand that it was a joke. “Sister,does your tummy hurt? I’ll bring you medicine.”

Isabel answered sharply, “Don’t you dare come,

you out if you come.”

Flint whined, “Yikes... Sister is angry at me...”

Isabel, “...

Sylvia chuckled at their interaction and replied, “Alrightkids, go to bed and catch some rest. Since it’s theweekend tomorrow, Mommy will video call you guysaround the evening, so we can talk all we wanttomorrow.”

Isabel, “Okay, get some rest too, Mommy.”

Flint, “Okay okay, nighty nighty Mommy, I’m going to

bed with Liam.”

Isabel, “Shut up and sleep already! Liam, take his phoneaway.”

Flint, “Are you angry? | can sleep with you if you want, don’t be sad.”Isabel, “I’m going to beat you up!”

Liam, “I got my phone back, goodnight everyone.” Sylvia could not stop laughing.
