MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 3 Episode 72

The terms he offered were tempting, but his intention was clear as well: he wanted her to be his mistress again.

An indescribable irritation gushed up to her chest, causing her to suffocate. She pursed her lips tightly. Odell noticed her silence. He pinched her chin and asked, “Why aren’t you saying anything?” Sylvia looked into his eyes with tearful eyes that held a hint of frostiness. She said, “Odell, I will never agree to that.” Odell’s anticipation behind his deep gaze faded right away. “You’ve always wanted to be with Isabel and Liam, and I will give you the right to be with them for as long as you want. What else do you want?” he said in a grumpy tone. Sylvia took a deep breath to calm herself down before she said, “Odell, have you ever considered Isabel and Liam’s feelings? Are you trying to set an example for Liam to be like you when he grows up? Should he have a mistress after he gets a girlfriend or a wife? Or are you trying to tell Isabel that there are no good men in this world? It might convey the wrong message to her, making her believe that a man having more than one woman outside his family is something normal.”

Odell frowned.

A long silence later, he said, “Liam will have his own thoughts in the future. Isabel is my daughter, and if her man dares to betray her, I will not spare him.” Sylvia could not help but scoff at his claims. “Odell, you are really good at shifting your responsibility. Then, what about me? Have you ever considered my feelings? I’m their mother, but I have to become a mistress to my ex-husband and their father?! If I say yes, how will they perceive me in the future? How will I face them?”

She sighed heavily and continued, “You are shameless, but I’m not.” Odell’s expression turned grim. This time, Sylvia boldly stared back into his eyes. Another long pause later, Odell tightened his thin lips and explained, “I’m not asking you to be my mistress.”

“Then, what do you mean? Do you want to remarry me? Or are you asking me to be your girlfriend? What about Tara? Are you going to abandon her?” Sylvia scoffed. Odell furrowed his brows tightly. The irritation and restlessness on his face gradually emerged.

Moments later, he finally released her.

Sylvia took a few steps to the side to draw distance.

She expected this. She knew his possessive side was taking control, at most having a little reignited interest in her, but it was never his true feelings. He would also never abandon Tara

because of her. After all, Tara was his true love. After drawing distance from the man, Sylvia strode outside. “Hold up!” he bellowed. Sylvia froze. She turned around with furrowed brows and asked, “What?”

“Do not see Edmund anymore,” he warned her with a frosty gaze and sounded dominant as always. “If I find out that you are meeting him again, don’t think of seeing the kids anymore.”

Sylvia was forced to swallow her grievance Again, he was using the kids against her. She glared at him and forced a reluctant reply out of her mouth. “Fine.” She then strode out of the house as fast as she could, leaving Odell stunned on the spot. He watched her walk out of the door, and when her figure finally left his sight, his brows furrowed in frustration again. Like what Sylvia said, he could not abandon Tara, but he wanted Sylvia more.

Some time after Sylvia returned home, she received a text from Edmund. The text began with a funny sticker, followed by a question. “Syl, I miss you. When are we going to meet?” Odell’s threats remained loud in her ears, so Sylvia was forced to reply, “I’ve been quite busy lately.” “What are you working on? Do you need my help?” “It’s okay. It’s just my own work.” “Okay. But I just bought several paintings

recently. Can you take a look for me?” “Sure. Take some pictures for me.” Soon, the pictures were sent over to her.
