MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 12 Episode 14

Sherry curled her fists and sat on the floor. She leaned on the icy cold wall and decided to wait for thebanquet to be over. She refused to return to the banquet hall.

The bodyguard then left her alone and retreated two meters.

At the same time, someone else was watching from behind the corner.

The man with the slender figure stayed in the shadows as he leaned on the wall.

He was still dressed in the black suit with the red bowtie, but his face was emotionless.

He had been standing there for a while, and even the back of his jacket startedto wrinkle.

After Matthew returned to the banquet hall, he pulled Janine away from the table.

“Come out. | have something to talk to you about,” he said coldly.

Janine’s expression changed.

She followed him out of the hall through the other exit, a safe passage with no one around.

“What’s wrong? Why did you pull me away?” Matthew glared at her.

“Sherry has actually been staying at the Stocktons’ place for more than a year now, hasn’t she?”

Janine’s face turned pale.

“H-how did you know? Was it Sherry? That wretched girl!” “You knew and you didn’t tell me?!”

“| only found out about itwhen John and Shannon were engaged.” “YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME!” he shouted.

His roar stunned her for a moment before she retorted,” What could you possibly do about it even if you knew? Shannon has fallen for John,and John loves her.

He came to us and agreed to marry Shannon, even if he has another woman at home.

| know Shannon is important to him and is special to him.”

Enraged, Matthew pointed at her.

“That woman isn’t just some whore outside. It’s our daughter! Shannon’s sister!”

Janine scoffed.

“You took her in as your daughter, not me.

I’d rather not acknowledge her as my own blood.” Matthew was infuriated by her remarks .

He tapped his forehead and continued , “Do you know why she’s been kept there for more than a year?” “Howshould | know? Maybe she’s trying to seduce John and make him marry her instead.” “She’s there because she helped us!” Matthew sighed.

” Have you forgotten that we begged her to save us a year ago? She helped us overcome thefinancial crisis.” Janine was stunned, but she quickly recovered her composure.

“Are you saying John kept her there because of the deal she made to save us?” “What else?”

“Hmph! Even if it’s true, sheasked for it.

We knelt before her when we asked her to help, so what else does she want?” Janine continued to discredit her. “She’s still our daughter! If others find out that both our daughters are related to the same man, one as his wife and one as his lover ,what will the public think of us?!” Matthew consciously lowered his voice to avoid being overheard.

Janine’s gaze shifted.

“Shannon has married John.

As long as that ungrateful girl stays away from John and doesn’t talk nonsense, no one will know.”

Matthewfrowned in silence.

Janine took his silence as a sign of acceptance.

She sighed and said, “Shannon has really fallen for John.

If John doesn’t have feelings for her, why would he marry her? Marriage is huge, especially for the richest man inthe city. He won’t simply marry anyone that he doesn’t like.

Stop overthinking.

As long as Shannon is able to live her best life, | don’t care about anything else.” It had been an hour since Sherry satby the wall in the corridor.

The banquet finally finished and the guests started to come out.
