Tears began to roll down Tara’s cheeks.
“I am not asking for forgiveness. I just hope that my actions have not affected you too badly. I really,
really hope that you can live a happy life with Sylvia, every single day. Then, even if I die, I will be able
to rest in peace.”
There was an annoyed look on Odell’s face. “You are just weak, you won’t die.”
Tara bitterly smiled. “Dying is better than living in extreme guilt and pain.”
“What happened is all in the past now and I will consider that we’re now even. I won’t hold you
responsible for what you did, so don’t be so harsh on yourself.” “Okay, I’ll do whatever you want.”
Glancing at her phone, Tara looked at him with anticipation and said, “Odell, I still have to work later
tonight and I’m running late. Could you give me a ride? It’s just outside the Old District. I promise that
after this, I won’t appear before you anymore. Let’s just think of this as the conclusion to our
relationship. Please?”

Both Isabel and Liam should already be asleep.
That woman had probably done so as well.
After thinking a while, he said, “Okay.”
There was only one small hospital near Sylvia’s place. However, there was a major roadblock along the
only way to the hospital due to the earlier car accident.
Fortunately, her place was close to the Old District, which was only a twenty minutes drive away. Sylvia
arrived at the bigger hospital at Old District with Aunt Tonya.
After handling the registration, Aunt Tonya requested for a wheelchair for Sylvia before she pushed her
to the doctor’s consultation room.
They soon came to an elevator. However, since the building was more than ten stories high, they had
to wait for quite some time for the elevator to reach the first floor.
Ding!
The doors slid open.
Just as Sylvia was about to wheel herself in, she looked up and saw a tall, familiar figure
The man was dressed in a well-cut suit, matched with an overcoat. The aura that he exuded was cold
and stern,
It was Odell. Sylvia was not only shocked by his appearance but also ‘Tara’s, who was beside him as if
she was his wife.
Tara looked weak and pale, like a small animal that needed protection
Sylvia’s expression turned cold,
Both Odell and Tara’s expressions changed as well when they saw her. Odell strode to her and stared
at her leg, “What happened to your leg?”
Sylvia felt chills running up and down her spine, the cold seeming to freeze her from her heart to the
rest of the body.
She scoffed and said, “So you came here to accompany her?”
Odell frowned.
Before he could explain, ‘Tara immediately said, “Sylvia, it’s not what you think. Odell just happened to

Just a coincidence?
“What a coincidence. So, you just happened to be chased by gangsters and just so happened to be
saved by Odell? Tara, don’t tell me it’s one of your schemes again,” Sylvia said coldly. Tara’s gaze
changed and tears began to roll down her cheeks.
Weakly, she said, “You are free to believe whatever you want as long as you don’t misunderstand
Odell.”
“My my. It’s been a while since we’ve met and I have to say that your acting skills have gotten better.”
Tara wiped her tears away as she choked up. Sylvia laughed. “Tara, please stop. I didn’t really say that
much. You don’t need to put on such a big act.” Tara continued to weep as she said to Odell, “Odell, I’ll
leave you two alone now. I’ll take my leave now.” Covering her face, she immediately ran outside the
hospital. Before she could run far, she slipped on the slippery ice and fell to the ground. “Hmph!” Sylvia
scoffed. Odell shot a gaze at Sylvia. “Enough.” Sylvia turned to Aunt Tonya and said, “Aunt Tonya, let’s
go up.” Aunt Tonya immediately pushed Sylvia into the elevator. Sylvia saw Odell walk to Tara but the
doors slid to a close before she could see what he would do with her.
The elevator went up.
Sylvia clenched her hands into fists, the palms of her hands were cold and clammy. Looking at her
injured calf, she felt a sense of irony.
