NovelEnglishChapter 694
After Liam had fallen asleep , Sylvia walked out of their room.
She had spent the whole day playing at the theme park with the two little ones. After all of that, she
reeked of sweat.
Taking her time, she went back to her room to take a shower. Then, she changed into some fresh
clothes before she headed to the front door.
Meanwhile on the balcony next door, a towering figure was watching her from the shadows.
He had a glass of wine in his hand as his deep gaze continued to be watchful of the yard next door.
Soon, he saw the woman that he had been waiting for.
His gaze turned cold and his grip on the glass tightened involuntarily. Any stronger and he would be
able to break it with his bare hand.
The sky had only just turned dark yet the woman was going out again and had even changed into fresh

Sylvia stopped by some shops to buy some fruits and
dinner before heading to the hospital.
Thomas remained in his ward, still wearing his hospital gown. His slender figure leaned against the
back of the bed, looking rather pale.
When Sylvia arrived , he put down the book in his hand and greeted her with a smile on his usually cold
face. As she sat down beside him, she put the food on the table and said, “Thomas, please have
something to eat.” “Okay.”
The man picked up the cutlery.
Sylvia sat beside him and watched him eat.
Perhaps it was for her sake, Thomas ate everything that she had brought over until not even a drop of
gravy was left on the plate. Sylvia noticed his increased appetite, and asked, “Had enough?”
Thomas smiled. “Yeah, thank you.”
Sylvia smiled and started to tidy the table.
She took the trash outside and when she came back, she saw that Thomas was staring at her with a
warm smile on his face.
Sylvia glanced at his injured left hand and saw that it was still wrapped in white gauze.
Noticing her glance, he said softly, “Don’t worry, it takes time to heal. I’ll recover eventually.”
Sylvia hummed in reply and sat beside him.
“Sylvia, I…”
He suddenly seemed to want to say something, but hesitated.
“What is it, Thomas?”
He frowned and said, “It’s nothing. Maybe I was mistaken.”
“What is it? Did you see something?”
Thomas remained quiet.
Sylvia got nervous. “Tell me, what did you see?”

spotted two men watching me in the dark. They looked familiar, so I wondered if maybe they were
Odell’s bodyguards .”
Sylvia’s expression turned cold. She wanted to stand but Thomas stopped her.
“Hold on, Sylvia. Calm down. There were many people moving around downstairs earlier and all of
them were dressed in hospital gowns so maybe I was mistaken.”
As he said this, he glanced at the door.
Two figures seemed to flash past outside the door and this time, Sylvia spotted them as well.
Sylvia bolted up and ran to the door. She saw two men in hospital gowns secretly moving towards the
ward next door.
She was able to catch a glimpse of the side of one of the man’s faces and she was certain that the man
was one of
the bodyguards that Odell had stationed at the villa.
Odell had said that he would spare Thomas , yet he had sent bodyguards here to watch him secretly.
Sylvia immediately closed the door and went back to Thomas. “Thomas, did they do anything to you?”
“No, but I believe that Odell is still suspicious of me,” he said as his face sank.
