MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 9 Episode 88

Sylvia slept until she woke up naturally, which was around the same time as usual but Odell had already gone to work. She got up and washed her face.

Then she changed into fresh clothes, nursed Flint and had breakfast. She also spent some time with Isabel and Liam before she handed Flint over to Aunt Tonya when she thought it was almost time to go.

Leaving Isabel and Liam with a reminder to be good, she then took a ride to the bar in New District.

Ben had been the one to drive her to the bar in the past two days. Before she got out of the car, he said, “Madam, I’ll be waiting in the car. Just call me if you need anything.”

Sylvia hummed in reply and got out of the car.

The bar and its surroundings looked the same but there were two more tables with customers inside. The customers gave subtle glances at Sylvia as soon as she went in.

Thinking about what Bowman had told her, Sylvia assumed that they were undercover police officers. The thought eased her nervousness slightly.

After coming here for two days straight, the lady owner was able to recognize her. She smiled and said, “Two bottles of rose champagne and some snacks?”

Sylvia smiled and hummed in reply.

The lady owner served the drinks and snacks shortly after.

Sylvia took a sip to ease her mind.

The seconds turned into minutes, and the minutes into hours.

Almost two hours later, she had finished the two bottles of rose champagne. By then, the other customers seemed to have finished their drinks as well and they gestured to the lady owner for more.

Sylvia frowned. She had drunk a little too much today and was starting to feel tipsy.

Unfortunately, Thomas still had not shown up. ‘When is he going to appear?’ She thought.

Suddenly, just as she was thinking about leaving, she heard a knocking sound coming from beside her.

Sylvia was sitting by the window and she saw that someone was knocking on the glass window from the outside.

She froze and raised her head, only to see a pair of cold-looking eyes looking right back at her.

Thomas’ slender figure appeared within her sight.

They were only separated by a layer of glass.

He was smiling lightly at her.

fell on the table with a thud.

The whole bar suddenly went quiet.

Sylvia did not turn around but she sensed that the undercover police officers were looking in her direction. She pursed her lips and stared at Thomas stiffly.

Thomas’ smile widened. “Could | have a word with you outside?”

Sylvia reluctantly said, “I don’t want to go outside. Come inside if you want to talk.”

She had to lure him in because there were police officers in the

bar.

Thomas stared at her in silence for a while. Gathering all her courage, she stared back.

Just as she was about to lose the staring contest, he grinned and said, “Okay.”

He came in through the entrance and sat opposite Sylvia.

Sylvia sat stiffly. “What was it that you wanted to talk about?”

Thomas looked at her. “Are they police officers ?”

He turned to glance at the other customers.

Sylvia’s face turned pale.

The undercover police officers immediately bolted up.

However, Thomas calmly remained seated. He even continued to smile at Sylvia. Sylvia had a feeling that something was not right.

However, before she could understand why, she heard a sudden scream. Aman had seized the lady owner by putting a knife to her neck.

The police officers immediately froze.

Sylvia cried, “The owner is innocent, let her go!”

Thomas smiled. “Come with me and I’ll spare her.”

Sylvia clutched the table tightly.

Thomas chuckled at her nervous reaction. “Don’t worry, | just want to have a few words with you. | won’t take you away.”
