MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 8 Episode 37

Sylvia grimaced. “I don’t think I’m going back.” “Yeah, | suppose there really is no point for you to go back since he was already willing to dump you despite knowing that you’re pregnant.”

His words were filled with unconcealed sarcasm.

Sylvia made no further comments.

Odell gave her another look and asked, “Is there nothing else you want to ask me?”

She looked at him and smiled in an almost pandering way. “Are you in a better mood now?” Something gleamed in Odell’s eyes. He was not expecting her to care about his feelings. He gave a dry cough and answered curly, “Well enough.”

Sylvia immediately followed up. “Then could you let me meet Isabel and Liam? | just need a quick look at them even if it’s from a distance.”

Acold and harsh look immediately arrested his handsome expression.

Sylvia grimaced.

As the atmosphere in the room gradually thickened, the

sudden blare of a cell phone interrupted the moment.

Sylvia looked at Odell’s pocket.

He promptly took out his phone and took a quick look at the caller before he muted his phone.

It was clear that he was not in a rush to answer the call. Instead, he got up and observed Sylvia with a gloomy haze in his eyes. “Don’t you do anything stupid. If | catch you trying to contact Isabel and Liam, | won’t let you off the hook.”

She simply grunted in response.

He answered the call and promptly stepped outside. His figure slowly vanished into the blur of snow outside. Meanwhile, Sylvia went upstairs.

She was completely drained from the day’s journey. She tossed a set of clean clothes on the pillow, then she immediately collapsed into the bed and dozed off into a deep and heavy sleep.

Meanwhile , Odell had just walked out of the house and stopped right by the entrance.

He put the phone to his ear.

“What is it?” he asked in an indifferent voice.

It was Lily calling. She said with a smile, “Not much. | was just calling to let you know that I’ve explained everything clearly to Grandma and Grandpa. The dinner went very well tonight. Nobody had any complaints or anything of that sort.”

“Alright.”

“By the way, how’s the woman doing? Have you helped her settle in?” Odell frowned and expressed irritatedly, “She’s fine.” Lily sensed the note of irritation in his voice and quickly apologized, “Sorry, | shouldn’t have asked.” “Is there anything else you need?” She answered briskly, “Nothing else, goodnight.” With that, Odell hung up. He turned around for another look at Sylvia’s house.

The lights in the living room were switched off and he could notice dim lights coming from her bedroom. Shortly after that, the lights in the bedroom were switched off as well. He locked his brows into a displeased frown.

Sleeping already? She could not even be bothered to sweep the place up.

Immediately upon registering this thought, it occurred to

him that he was worried about her. The cold, stoic look immediately returned to his expression as he waltzed back to his place.

Half a year ago, not only did she abandon the children, but she even stabbed him and then vanished with Thomas only to come back now with a baby. He would be clinically insane to even care about her!

Midnight, Sylvia had only slept for several hours.

In the middle of her sleep, she faintly felt someone pinching her cheeks, then moving on to rubbing her nose like her face was a ball of dough that needed kneading. She grunted groggily and rolled to the other side.

Shortly after that, she felt the same touch on her cheeks again. Just when it seemed like she was about to pry herself out of her sleep and come to her senses, the hand quickly retreated.

She faintly felt the hand draw away, then she fell back into a liminal state and slowly drifted back to sleep.

Meanwhile , there was a tall figure standing next to her bed.

Amid the darkness was a pair of obsidian eyes studying her sleeping face.

What was all that about wanting to see Isabel and Liam? How was she still sleeping after he pinched her for so long? She never cared for them! He scoffed contemptuously, then turned and left.
