MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 12 Episode 54

Confused , Lily looked at her grandfather. “Grandfather, what’s wrong with me being the competition judge?” Master Springsteen looked at her seriously.

“Your painting has improved a lot since last time.” Lily’s eyes gleamed with delight, but before she could smile,her grandfather said, “But it’s not enough to make you a good

judge yet.

Others might not say anything about your painting, but as your grandfather, it is my duty to tell you the truth.”

Lily’s expression froze

She frowned and argued, “Are you saying that my painting is mediocre?” “That’s right.

You might look good while you paint, but you are not there in terms of skills yet

You lack the idealization and experience, so you need to practice more.”

Master Springsteen was reluctant to hither with the proverbial pail of cold water, but it was a fact.

He pursed his lips and sighed.

“Compared to Simon and the other two veterans, your painting is too far behind.”

Lily clenched her fists and askedreluctantly, “What about compared to Sylvia’s?” Master Springsteen looked at her.

“Don’t you know your own level? Her painting is there.

Need | elaborate more?” Lily pursed her lips tightly and her fists remained clenched.

She refused to accept the fact that she was sub par.

She was the eldest daughter of the Springsteens, a musical prodigy idolized by many.

Why must she accept defeat from a woman with no background? “Lily, Sylvia is a really talented painter. Her attainments in art are not something easily achievable.

Your background and musical talents are much better than hers, so there’s no wrong in accepting your shortcomings. No one can be at the top in every field, even men.

You and Odell are destined to be nothing more than business partners, so don’t go after Sylvia just because you losthim.” Master Springsteen tapped on her shoulder.

“There’s still time before the competition.

Go to Christopher and tell him that you are quitting as a judge.

Let’s go home.” The elderly then walked outside with his walking stick after saying what heneeded to say. Lily was stunned on the spot.

Her head was lowered and her fists remained clenched.

Her body felt stiff, and she remained still for quite a while.

Sylvia knew Odell was not much of a talker, but the grim expression on his face told her something was wrong. She poked him, but his giant hand caught her wrist.

He held her tightly, and his expression remained solemn.

“What’s wrong?” Sylvia asked in a small voice.

“Nothing,” he said grufly

Sylvia remembered what he said to Haytham.

She continued, “lt happened a while ago. I’m fine now.”

He remained silent

The car took a turn into the parking lot of a busy street filled with food stalls,

Sylvia pursed her lips

She planned to talk to him alone afer they got home.

Odell got out of the car and carried Flint into his arms:

Sylvia held Isabel and Liam at her side

There were all kinds of food stalls, restaurants, and eateries on the street.

Sylvia and Isabel went on a food-hunting spree.

Liam followed them around and carried the food they bought.

The little boy was almost crushed by the amount of food they bought before they decided to settle down in a hotpot restaurant. Odell seemed to have made a reservation, so the waiter politely guided them to the room on the second floor.

The hotpot restaurant was known for its delicious soup and fresh ingredients.

Other than Flint, who was too young to eat, and Odell, who was busy putting the ingredients into the pot, Sylvia and theothertwo kids had a marvelous feast
