Chapter 1041
The study was filled with Flint‘s cheerful chuckles.
Sylvia instinctively turned to Odell.
He was still seated at his desk, but his posture had changed. He rested his elbow against the table with his chin
propped against his palm. He seemed very relaxed and was looking at Sylvia with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Sylvia did not know how long he had been staring at her. He must have seen what Flint did.
She felt her cheeks flush red and blurted out, “Why are you staring at me? Aren‘t you supposed to be working?”
“I don‘t know,” Odell said, “I just felt like staring at you.”
Sylvia was silent.
Was he trying to flirt with her?
Her cheeks were seared with red as she gazed into his dashing face.

“I‘ll stop pestering you so you can get back to it.”
She paddled toward the door with Flint.
However, Flint did not seem very cooperative and suddenly shouted, “Dad, Daddy…”
Sylvia ignored his pleas and continued walking out. Flint was very stubborn. “Uhh… Daddy, Daddy…”
It sounded like he was on the verge of crying.
It was as if Sylvia was a cruel witch who tried to separate him from his father.
Sylvia quickly stopped.
Odell was still seated in the same casual way and smiling at her.
Sylvia turned to look at him.
Flint was unrelenting. “Daddy, Daddy…”
Sylvia immediately approached Odell and shoved Flint into his arms before turning to leave. Suddenly, she felt a hand grabbing her wrist.
She wanted to draw her wrist back.
However, she immediately sensed Odell tightening his grip on her.
She was flung backward in an instant and landed on Odell‘s arm.
Meanwhile , Flint was happily crawling on top of Odell‘s desk as he finally got what he wanted.
Sylvia‘s face was red with embarrassment. “What are you doing? Put me down.”
Odell would not let her go. He gazed into her eyes alluringly. “Where are you going?”
pointedly, “Flint is on the table. Let me go.”
She shot a look at Flint.
He was pretty much sitting on top of the keyboard of Odell‘s laptop and seemed to find it quite amusing. He slammed his hands on the keyboard. Odell
had caught him by his calf.
That way, there was no chance of him falling.

Sylvia was very vexed. “You… don‘t you have to work?” Odell observed her frantic expression. “It‘s nothing urgent.” “Okay.” Sylvia folded her arms across her chest
and looked at Flint to avoid having to look at Odell.
“Just stay with me here for a while, okay?” Odell requested suddenly.
Sylvia was startled by this request and immediately turned to him.
There was a tender and expectant look in his eyes. Something suddenly occurred to Sylvia, “You… Won‘t I get in the way of your work like this?” “Please do.”
Sylvia was speechless.
When did he learn to talk like this?
She avoided his gaze again and blurted out, “Well, I guess I‘ll keep you company since you want it so much. I don‘t have anything to do anyway.”
She slowly rose as she said this.
That was when he suddenly grabbed her by her chin and made
her turn to him. In an instant, his face was only inches away from hers and was still drawing in closer.
She felt his lips pressing against hers.
Her eyes widened in shock.
He kissed her with his eyes closed , gently brushing her cheeks with the tips of his defined eyebrows. After a long kiss, he finally opened his eyes.
Sylvia raised a hand and shoved him away. He smiled and let go of her.
