Chapter 310
Sylvia’s gaze flashed, and she replied, “I was stuck in the traffic, so I got delayed.”
It was nonsense. She was late because explaining those things to Simon took some time.
Odell sized her up and said, “Go prepare your documents quickly and change into suitable clothes.”
Sylvia hummed and walked through the door, with Odell following closely behind.
Sylvia had put all her crucial documents in a storage box. She found them soon after she went into her room.
Holding her documents, she looked back at the man who walked toward her as she thought of something. “Odell, did Tara call you?”)
Tara did not want them to remarry, and she must have tried to stop them. Odell narrowed his eyes. “How did you know that she called me?” Sylvia’s gaze flickered, and she replied, “I guessed it.” Odell looked at her and said, “She did, but I hung up.” Sylvia was a bit surprised. “Why didn’t you take it?” She remembered Odell saying that Tara was the one who accompanied him through his darkest times and was important to him.
“No need to hurry. I could still call Tara back after we register.” Sylvia muttered, “It won’t take much time to pick up a call.” “What? Do you want me to take her call so much?” Odell’s gaze sharpened at her. Sylvia subconsciously avoided his gaze and replied, “No. I’m just asking.” Odell’s gaze darkened, and then he said, “Go change quickly.” Sylvia walked into her cloakroom and changed into a white shirt and black slacks. After that, she glanced at herself in the mirror and walked out.
The moment she walked out, Odell held her hand in his big hands.
Sylvia had yet to react when Odell dragged her out of the room. She quickly said, “My documents!” “I’ve taken them for you.” Odell waved the black leather bag in his other hand. Sylvia pursed her lips and walked out with him. They got in his car and soon, the engine started. Not long after, they stopped outside of the City Hall.
Looking at the door to the City Hall, Sylvia suddenly recalled the scene when she first got their marriage certificate with Odell many years ago.
He had a cold face, looking as if any extra second spent with her was torture. It was because he
was coerced into marriage at that time.
Although Sylvia wanted to be with him, she was also tormented during that experience. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
She remembered that when they were in front of the City Hall, she even said to him, “Let’s call it off if you’re unwilling. I’ll explain to your father and the others.”
Odell’s expression did not ease after that, and hé glanced at her gloomily instead, speaking in a cold voice, “What will you explain? Explain how we were on the same bed? Or get them to threaten and reprimand me again?”
Then he dragged her into the City Hall, his force strong enough to break her wrists.
The night they registered their marriage, Sylvia moved into the Carter family, and then he gave her the silent treatment for two or three years… Suddenly, he patted her head. Sylvia came to her senses and saw the man that was looking at her. Odell had gotten down from the car and opened the door for her. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his voice was still gentle even though he sounded a bit displeased.
“What are you zoning out for? Get down the car.” Sylvia sucked in a breath and looked at him, asking, “Odell, are you sure you want to marry me
again?”
