Chapter 156
Tristan’s expression darkened.
After Sylvia walked away, he bowed his head in despair.
Tristan did not move.

After a while, he looked up at Bruce and Catherine. His usually warm and clear eyes were now tinged with a red light. He said, “Are you satisfied now? She’ll never accept me again.”
Bruce and Catherine froze.
After a while, Catherine said softly, “We were wrong, Tristan. Let’s go home first. We’ll talk about it when we get back.”
Tristan ignored her, turned around, and walked toward the road. His head was bowed, and his back looked very forlorn in the setting sun. Bruce and Catherine were worried and immediately chased after him.
At that moment, in a luxury sports car in a parking lot not far away, Odell sat in the driver’s seat with a cigarette in his hand.
The window was wound halfway down. His deep gaze looked at Tristan’s distant figure, then at the direction in which Sylvia left. He took a drag of the cigarette. White smoke spilled out from his lips and rose up to mingle in the air, obscuring his face. The car was quiet for a long time.
Tara sat in the passenger seat. When she looked in the direction he was watching, her gaze turned panicked.
After a long time, when Bruce and Catherine took Tristan away, and Sylvia and Sherry’s car also left, she finally said, “Let’s go back, Odell.”
Odell withdrew his gaze, put out the cigarette, threw it away, and started the car.
The car quickly drove into the traffic, headed in the direction of Lake Victoria Villa.
Not long after, he said, “I still have some matters to attend to in the evening. I won’t accompany you for dinner later.”
His voice was cold.
Tara’s face paled. After being with him for so many years, she more or less understood him.
‘He only says he has something to do because he doesn’t want to accompany me. Is it because I humiliated him by falling off the stage in public today? Or was it because that b*tch, Sylvia, was too eye-catching? ‘Or, did he think of something else? Mr. and Mrs. Ledger obviously already believe that Sylvia
She could not let Aunt Tonya be kidnapped again.
Sherry immediately said, “No problem. Leave it to me.”
At night, after eating dinner, Sherry left.
Aunt Tonya was tidying up in the living room. Sylvia could not help, so she took the binoculars and pushed her wheelchair outside to the courtyard.
She had not been at home these two days, so the two little ones must have been anxious. She wondered if they would be waiting for her on the large terrace tonight. After coming to the courtyard, she raised the binoculars and looked in the direction of the old Carter mansion.
Sylvia saw the scene on the large terrace at once, and her gaze was startled.
Odell’s tall figure sat on the sofa on the terrace. He held Isabel’s head in an armlock and played with the pink binoculars that Liam usually used in one hand. Meanwhile, his other hand pressed Liam’s small head down beside him.
He seemed to sense that Sylvia was looking over.
He quickly put the binoculars in front of his eyes.
