Capítulo 168
Chapter 168 Tara arrived at Carter Tower before 5 p.m.
She wore a new sexy and form–
fitting red dress with a plush shawl, and her hair was specially styled at a beauty salon. She was dressed
exquisitely.
However, she could not hide the panic on her face.
Odell
did not send her a message since he went backst night. Although he seldom took the initiative to find h
er, she could clearly feel that he did not want to talk to her. Even during the call at noon, his voice had be
en very cold. Tara paced back and forth anxiously. When she saw Odelling out of the building, she i
mmediately jogged toward him.
“Odell!” She
ran to his side and took his arm intimately. Odell gave her an indifferent look and took her to the car. The
car soon arrived at a restaurant where they went into a quiet room.
Tara sat beside him. When the food was brought up, she tenderly served him food. He frowned. “There’s
no need. I have my own hands.”
She obediently withdrew her hand.
The room fell silent.

Odell ate a few bites before asking, “Do you know Alister?” Tara‘s hand holding the cutlery
froze, and she asked him in a soft voice, “Did Sylvia
tell you something?” She had reminded Alister not to go to work and not to contact Sylvia for the time bei
ng. Since Odell was suddenly mentioning Alister, it was most likely
that Sylvia told him something. He sipped his drink and replied, “I met her this morning.” Tara‘s face sudd
enly turned pale. “You met Alister? What did she say to you?”
Odell could see the panic on her face at a nce. He frowned unhappily. “Do you want
me to say it, or do you want to admit it yourself?” Tara‘s gaze trembled.
A whileter, she lowered her head and whispered, “I know her. I told her to watch Sylvia.”

Odell‘s eyes went cold as he asked her, “Before, it was also
you who repeatedly urged Tristan to make him think that Sylvia liked him, right?”
Tara hurriedly said, “Odell, I didn‘t do that on purpose. I just
thought that since he‘s such a good person, it‘s impossible for Sylvia to not like him. After all, Sylvia
and I used to be friends. I really wanted to see her be in a marriage that would suit her.”
Odell‘s gaze deepened. “Then there was no reason for you to pay Alister to spy on Sylvia and secretly tak
most.”
Tara‘s face paled again. He hated people
lying to him the most, especially when they were people around
him. Her eyes reddened in an instant as she cried, “I‘m not lying to you. I really just wanted to set them up
asked Alister to spy on her because I wanted to make sure that they could be together. I… I just love
you too much, so I was scared…” She choked up as she spoke. Odell frowned and asked, “What are you
of?“. Tara suddenly jumped to his side and hugged him
tightly. “I‘m scared of losing you. I know you won‘t be attracted to her, but she still seems to be
interested in you. I’m afraid she‘ll use the children to get
close to you again. I really don‘t want to lose you again! I don‘t want to go back to what it was like four yea

Odell pursed his lips. Four years ago, he had not obtained Carter Corporation yet. It had still been his step
