Chapter 1156

Sylvia was suffocating from the hug. “Odell, I can’t breathe.” The man’s grim expression softened and loosened his hug. It took him a while to hide his frosty look, and only then he released her. He stroked her face and said, “I’ll go make a call. Rest if you are tired. I’ll be back soon.” Sylvia asked, “Why are you making a call at this hour? Who are you calling?” His face was emotionless. “It's a work-related call.” Sylvia was worried. “Odell, I’ve gotten over it already, so please don’t do this. Don’t start a war with the Springsteens, or whatever you’re going to do.” The Springsteen Corporation might not be as big as Carter Corporation, but the family was still one of the biggest families in Westchester, and they were Carter Corporation’s business partner. Odell smiled. “Don’t worry. I know how to differentiate private and work matters.” “Great.” Sylvia sighed a breath of relief. She went to the closet and changed into her pajamas. Odell took his phone outside.
