Chapter 640

There was not a spot of light seen in her residence, while Odell’s was glittering with lights everywhere.

It was still as well furnished as it was in the past. There were even two bodyguards posted by the entrance.There was no sign of any depravity that came upon the property.

Perhaps this was the last remnant of his time in the spotlight before the Carter Corporation faced total collapse.The bodyguards recognized Sylvia and immediately opened the door for her when she approached.

Shortly after she entered, the housekeeper, Sebastian, greeted her enthusiastically. Sylvia exchanged several kind words ofgreeting with him before she went to Madam Carters’ room.

As expected, Isabel and Liam were inside the room with her.

Liam was sitting by the bed and had his attention squarely fixed on his book, while Isabel had fallen asleep next to her great-grandmother.

Sylvia slowly walked to Liam's side.Liam turned up to look at her. His adorable, chubby cheeks seemed to puff up along with his large, round eyes.

Sylvia patted his head. Liam softly murmured, “Mommy, | want to stay here with Great-grandma.” Sylvia replied, “Okay.” She wasnot going to take the kids back home anyway even if he had not said that. The two of them missed their great-grandmotherfervently. Besides, they had been staying at Thomas’ for a long time already.

Seeing as how Odell released her tonight, she figured that he was not going to try to impose his will on her anymore. If theycould get along in the future, she no longer saw a reason to stay at Thomas’ place.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

It was Thomas calling.

Sylvia stepped out of the room to answer the call.

Thomas’ voice immediately sounded through with clarity from the speakers. “Where are you now?”

While on the way here, Sylvia had sent him a message and assured him that there was nothing to worry about.She answered him truthfully, “I’m at my place near the Art Academy with Isabel and Liam.

Don’t worry about me, just go home and get some rest.”

“What about him?”

Him, as in Odell.

Sylvia pondered for a brief moment and answered, “He dropped me off halfway here. | don’t think he’s going to do anything tome from here on.”

“Alright, you get some good rest as well.”

“um.”

After hanging up, she returned to the room and watched over Madam Carter with the children. As the night went on, Liam begandozing off as well. Sylvia had Sebastian help her carry the kids into her room which was directly adjacent. During her absence,her room was regularly cleaned every day, even the blankets were changed to new and clean ones.

There was no need for any further cleaning up, so she put the two kids on their beds. She looked around, still feeling perturbedby everything that was happening. Then, she lay in between the two children.

Every time she closed her eyes, the image of the sapphire ring surfaced in her mind, haunting her and preventing her fromsleeping no matter how much she tossed and turned. It was only when the first light of dawn began flirting near the edge of thehorizon that she finally gave in to sleep.

“Uncle!”Isabel's cheerful cries rang through the morning air.

Sylvia was jolted awake and pried her eyes open. The sky outside the window was ablaze with light. It was already past nine inthe morning.

She got up and walked out of the room.

Liam was standing by the door with his arms folded across his chest, his pearly eyes fixed toward the living room downstairs. Itseemed like he was simultaneously watching over his sister in the living room while also keeping guard over his sleeping mother.He seemed every bit like a tiny adult.
