Chapter 1

“Congratulations , Mrs. Carter, you’re having a pair of twins.” The gynecologist handed the ultrasound report to Sylvia.

Sylvia took the sheet with trembling hands.

Twins!

Odell must be ecstatic to hear of this piece of news.

Sylvia thanked the gynecologist earnestly before leaving the hospital with her copy of the report.

She entered the car.

The driver promptly asked, “Madam, would you like to head home?” With a flick of her hand, Sylvia instructed, “Take me to Victoria Lake Villa.” The driver hesitated.

“Are you sure, madam? That’s where”

Sylvia cut him off and said with a steely gaze in her eyes, “I’m sure.”

The driver sighed silently and began to steer the car toward the direction of Victoria Lake Villa which was located southwest of Westchester City. Victoria Lake Villa was an extremely upper-class residence area developed in recent years in Westchester City. There were only ten sparse villas in the community, one of which was owned by the Carters. However, the lady of the house was not Sylvia Carter, the missus of Odell

Carter, but his one true muse, Tara Avery.

Half an hour later, the vehicle came to a halt. Sylvia took a deep breath and strode into the house with the ultrasound report. Unsurprisingly, she chanced upon Tara as soon as she entered. Tara was draped in an elegant dress that seemed like something nobilities would wear.

As if she was already anticipating Sylvia to show up, she was not surprised by her appearance. She shot a haughty look at Sylvia that displayed her authority over the house and asked,” Sylvia, what are you doing here?”

Sylvia looked at this former friend of hers who was now playing the role of the mistress in her marriage. She responded with a cold expression in her eyes, “I’m here for Odell.”
