MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 10 Episode 43

Sylvia barely managed to take a step when Odell grabbed her wrist from behind and pulled her into his arms. “Look at you, you’re jealous. What do you want for dinner?” he said with a charming look in his eyes.

She felt her cheeks burning red hot. “You’re the jealous one!”

He patted her head and asked again patiently, “Hotpot or street food?”

She pouted and decided. “Hotpot.”

“Alright.”

After they finished their dinner, it was nearly ten.

By the time they got back to the hotel, it was midnight already.

Sylvia had been yawning even when they were on the way back to the hotel. The moment they walked back into their suite, Odell patted her head gently and told her, “Use the bathroom inside the bedroom. I’ll use the one outside.”

“Okay.” Sylvia grunted with a tint of sleepiness before going to the bathroom inside the bedroom.

The shower turned out to wash away her sleepiness.

She suddenly remembered that there was only one bedroom in the suite.

After she put on her pajamas, she walked out of the bathroom and stared at the only giant bed in the middle of the room. After a while, Odell appeared in a bathrobe.

His large figure seemed to take up most of the space in the room and shrink it into half its original size.

He noticed how Sylvia was staring blankly at the bed, then he approached her and rested his arm on the top of her head.” Aren’t you sleepy? Why don’t you go to bed?”

Sylvia looked at him and pointed out. “There’s only one bed here.

Odell squinted. “What? Do you want me to sleep on the couch outside?”

“No, that’s not what | meant, I-*.

“Then go to bed.” With that, he pressed his arms on her shoulder and made her sit on the bed.

After that, he walked around the bed and sat down on the other edge of the bed.

The mattress was as soft as clouds. She felt like sinking into sleep the moment she sat.

Despite that, the rational part of her mind compelled her to say,” Actually, | wouldn’t mind sleeping on the couch.” A dark look in Odell’s eyes swept over her. “If you don’t lie down,

Ill help you.”

She pursed her lips and silently lay down on the bed.

She stayed on her side of the bed and seemed hesitant to cross the middle point

Odell glanced at her and stated, “Sleep. I’ll go get changed into pajamas.”

With that, he got up and went to the dresser, making sure to turn off the lights on his way. Darkness descended upon the room.

It was so quiet that Sylvia could hear the sound of clothes ruffling inside the dresser.

The darkness seemed to carry a hypnotic effect and before long, she faded into sleep. Odell returned to the bed shortly after.

He gently pinched her cheeks and called her name a few times. Upon noting that she was soundly asleep, he carried her to the center of the bed and lay down with his arms around her.

He could still smell the sweet fragrance of shampoo in her hair. It was the fragrance he was used to as it was the way she smelled before she lost her memory.

The only difference was that she was still Sylvia from nine years ago. There was a certain separation between the two of them. Despite that, he no longer felt as dejected as he felt several days ago. On the contrary, he was rather glad.

Especially when he recalled how she was so defensive and stood up to the lady who asked for his number, and the way she was. annoyed by other people flirting with him.

To think that Sylvia from nine years ago was so innocent and adorable.

During that time, he had trapped her in his house and neglected her for two whole years. He had brought her so much pain…

He felt a tightening sensation in his chest. He curled his body over her and brought her into his arms.

Sylvia slept until she woke up naturally. It was almost ten in the morning by the time she woke up.

She scrambled out of the bedroom in a hurry, her hair was bunched up like a bird’s nest.

Odell was sitting on the couch in the living room and going through a stack of documents while Cliff sat next to him and relayed the latest reports to him.

Both of them turned to her in unison when they heard her footsteps.

Sylvia was not expecting Cliff to be present, as she was still in her pajamas. She quickly made to turn back into the bedroom. Odell turned to Cliff. “Why don’t you head out first?”

Cliff obliged and stepped outside.

Odell put down the documents and turned to Sylvia. “Finally

awake?”
