Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife Chapter 123
“Alright, it's way easier if we only investigate him. I should be able to get back to you by tomorrow morning." “Ok, thanks again.” “No need for these formalities. Make sure you rest early and don't worry too much. They won’t do anything to Aunt Tonya.” Sylvia grimaced and answered, "Okay." ...... At the Carters' residence, when Odell came to the living room, he saw Madam Carter sitting all alone on the sofa. He frowned and asked, "Grandma, where are Liam and Isabel?” The madam had a shifty look in her eyes when she informed him, "They should be playing in their room." Odell stepped towards their room. Before he reached the door, he could hear Isabel complaining from inside, “I’m gonna turn the meanie into a turtle! Or I’ll turn him into a puppy…” She was busy casting a spell on him. Without further thought, he pushed the door open. Isabel, who was on the floor and badmouthing him, immediately zipped her lips. Liam moved in front of her, fearing t

The scene from several hundred meters away immediately zoomed in front of his very eyes. The lights in the living room were turned on. Sylvia could be seen sitting in front of a canvas placed in front of the French windows. She had paint all over her cheeks and on strands of her hair, but she remained completely unbothered. She held a paintbrush in one hand and was hard at work sketching something on the canvas. She did it with such intensity that it seemed like she would drill a hole into the canvas. Odell wore a dark look. Before the divorce, he had seen her paint several times. Those were the occasions when he got off work earlier than usual. He would return to the sight of her in plain clothes, with her hair tucked behind her ears and her face bare without makeup. She would sit on the lawn in the yard and draw with a fixed look. Twice, he had wanted to draw closer to observe her paintings, but she was very eager to please him and would immediately put her pa

Such morbid incompetence! After not receiving a response from the other end of the phone for some time, Cliff probed carefully, "Master Carter, should we help Miss Ross get Aunt Tonya back?” Odell answered in a disgruntled voice, "Do I look like a saint to you?” Cliff promptly shut his mouth. Two seconds later, Odell instructed him again, “Find out where Aunt Tonya is being held, and report to me once you find out." Cliff asked curiously, “I thought you didn’t want to help her?” Odell snapped back harshly, "Who said I was going to help her? I'm just curious where Aunt Tonya is being held captive by Emmanuel." Considering how Aunt Tonya was one of Sylvia’s dearest friends, he figured he would make good use of this information. Perhaps he could force her to apologize to him with this intel as leverage. Cliff pulled a face and answered, "Okay, I’m on it.” Odell then hung up and put down the phone. He looked through the binoculars again. Sylvia was still sketc

After she sent the text message, Sylvia stared at her phone screen and waited for a reply at home.Almost an hour passed before Tristan finally called her back.When she answered, he quickly said to her, "Sylvia, I turned off my phone because I was in a meeting, so I didn't answer your call. Tell me why Aunt Tonya was taken to my uncle's club."Sylvia replied, "My dad wants me to marry your uncle, so he kidnapped Aunt Tonya to threaten me. Can you take me to your uncle's club now?""What? How can he force you to marry my uncle?" Tristan was furious. "I'll book a flight back right away. Wait for me. I'll hurry back as soon as possible."Sylvia immediately frowned and asked, "Are you abroad now? Where are you?""I'm in Liberty. Don't worry. I'll get someone to help you find Aunt Tonya first. I'll definitely help you get her out. Just wait for me at home!"It would take more than ten hours for him to come back from Liberty, but the people he sent should be able to enter Michael's c

As the car moved, the navigation icon moved as well.According to the route, it seemed like the car was really headed toward Michael's club.However, would Dona let her see Aunt Tonya so easily?...On the top floor of Carter Tower, Cliff reached the office door. He knocked twice, pushed it open, and hurriedly walked in."Master Carter, we found out where Aunt Tonya is being held." He walked up to Odell's desk and continued to report, "The people we sent to investigate found that she's been locked up in a club belonging to Michael Ledger."Odell nodded after hearing this."There's one more thing, Master Carter," Cliff said somewhat hastily. However, he did not know whether he should say this or not.Odell frowned. "What is it?""The people who went to the club to investigate found that Michael just arrived as well.""Isn't it normal for him to go to his own club?""They secretly heard a call that Michael received. The person on the other end of the phone told him that Ms. Ro

Sylvia instantly understood what was going on.Dona did not send her to see Aunt Tonya at all. She wanted to send her to this fat middle-aged man!Michael soon regained his footing and stared at her.When he saw Sylvia's pretty face and charming figure, he narrowed his eyes and smiled lewdly. "Why are you running, Sylvia? Let me hug you."Sylvia resisted the urge to punch him and shouted at him, "Tell them to open the door. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"Michael stared at her and laughed. "You're feisty. I like that."He approached Sylvia as he spoke.Sylvia stepped back and tried to reason with him. "Tristan and I are good friends. Since you're his uncle, you're also my senior. Please behave yourself.""Hehe, don't you just want to marry that brat?" Michael laughed. "But he's still immature. He can't even go up against his parents, so he can't marry you. You might as well come with me instead. I promise that you'll have everything you dream of."Sylvia did

Bam!The vase hit Michael's head squarely.In an instant, he dropped to the ground with a heavy thud.Sylvia got up and ran to the window.However, Michael did not pass out. He sat up while covering his bleeding forehead.He glared at Sylvia fiercely and shouted at the door, "Men! Catch that bitch. Don't let her get away. I'll play with her till she dies!"The burly men outside opened the door and rushed in.One of them went to help Michael while the other went toward Sylvia.Sylvia quickly climbed to the windowsill.They were nearly ten meters from the ground. Although there was nothing for her to slide down with, the lawn below looked quite soft.Seeing that the man was about to reach her, she steeled her nerves and leaped down.In an instant, she tumbled on the lawn and rolled forward.At the same time, several black cars were coming down the driveway beside it.The black MPV in the lead stopped the moment she rolled over.Sylvia happened to stop rolling right next to

Sylvia was speechless. She pursed her lips.She did not want to explain, and she could not be bothered to explain.When Odell saw her like this, he thought that she was upset because he hit the nail on the head. He sneered and patted her cheek. "Why aren't you saying anything?"Sylvia said, "You're right. Can you take me away now?"Odell frowned. He could feel that she was being sarcastic. However, since she was in pain, he did not mind lending her a helping hand.After a moment, he said to her, "I can take you away, but you have to admit your mistake to me first."Admit her mistake?Sylvia asked in confusion, "What mistake did I make?"He said coldly, "You know very well what it is."What was it?She asked directly, "Is it because I hit Tara before?"Odell pursed his lips and ignored her.Sylvia took his silence as agreement. She immediately said, "I didn't do anything wrong. I found Alister, and she admitted that Tara bribed her. When I go back, I'll go find her and prove

She was her usual self in every aspect. She put her heart into her job and never started trouble so long as nobody tried to start trouble with her. The crew cycled through their locations during their shoot. The constant travel made her skin break out slightly, but there were no other concerns otherwise. The shoot progressed very smoothly and within three months, they managed to wrap up everything at the mountainous region previously mentioned. It was nearly evening when they wrapped up the shoot. Holding a bouquet in hand, she took a group picture with the crew and celebrated with everyone. After that, she planned to hitch a ride with another crew member and leave for home. To their demise, some men in uniform who claimed to be the road maintenance technicians showed up to break the bad news to them. They mentioned that they had to repair some of the roads urgently and so the way home was temporarily obstructed. The director took his phone and called the city hotline fo

He remembered his first meeting with Isabel. She was sitting all by herself on the floor, in the middle of nowhere. Her vulnerable expression only made her more endearing. So, he managed to get her to go to his place and installed her in his home. He fell for her and paid careful attention to all her needs. It did not take long before Isabel caught feelings for him as well. The two of them got together in no time. Their days were plain and ordinary, but also very fulfilling, that was until he met Clarice. With the help of his father, his power struggle with Roland had reached a tipping point. It was at that opportune moment when Clarice’s father saw something in Roland and planned to wed his daughter Clarice to him to join up their families, which was a cause for alarm for Decker. He stressed over it for an entire night before approaching Clarice himself the very next day. Clarice quickly caught feelings for him as well. Furthermore, Roland had been foolish enough to reject

Decker was smiling quite earnestly at Isabel. Isabel threw a deeply suspicious look at him, then she glanced at the stack of documents laid out on top of the table in front of her. “Transferal of Shares.” She was dumbfounded. "I've gone through the contract, it’s safe to sign so go ahead.” Roland picked up a pen and handed it to her. "Roland, I..." "Sign it first, I’ll explain when we get home.” Isabel frowned and tried to protest. "I—" "Don't make me have to beg." Isabel did not know how to respond. Fine. She briefly scanned through the contract. The contract stated Decker’s agreement to transfer the remaining forty percent of his shares in Rockwell Corporation to her. Roland must have talked to the shareholders of Rockwell Corporation about this as well. They all regarded Isabel with polite smiles. Isabel had flipped through the final page of the document. She signed her name on one of the marked-out sections. She proceeded to sign all thr

They ended the call shortly after that. Isabel glanced at Martha and was hesitating if she should break the news right away. Martha seemed to have sensed her staring and suddenly turned to her with a flash of concern. "Isabel, what's wrong?" Isabel took a deep breath and broke the news. "Auntie, Master Rockwell just passed away." Martha's eyes widened. After a lengthy silence that lasted more than ten seconds, she started to break out in tears. She covered her face with her hands and expressed amid bouts of tears mixed with laughter, “Wonderful! About time! I hope he enjoys life in the underworld. God knows that someone like him will never deserve a spot in heaven!” Isabel did not know whether she should celebrate with Martha or console her. Soon, Martha began to collect herself. She briefly wiped away her tears and joyfully took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let’s go shopping! I’m in such a good mood today, I’m going to go on a shopping spree!” "Okay. But Roland w

Isabel held onto Roland's hand firmly during the entire drive home after leaving the hospital. It was because Roland’s hands were cold and rigid. Isabel sat with him and tirelessly rubbed his hand to keep them warm. After one hand was warm, she would shift her attention to the other. By the time she managed to warm the other hand, the original hand would turn cold again. She decided it was easier to take both of his hands and caress them with the warmth of her palms. Roland looked at her with a gentle glow deep within his eyes. “Thank you, Isabel,” he said softly. Thank you for loving him, and for sticking by his side all this time despite circumstances. Isabel smiled. “I’m just warming your hands, it's no big deal. Still, you’re welcome." Roland smiled faintly and left it at that. Soon, his hands began to warm up off of the heat of Isabel’s palms. When Isabel felt that his hands were no longer freezing, she prepared to pull her hand away. That was when

Decker looked nothing like his usual self. The pompous, arrogant man who held himself far above others and who expected everyone around him to kiss up to him because he was superior to them all. It was as if he had been plunged not only to Earth but a pile of swamp. He had completely lost his usual grace. Isabel said crossly, "Decker, have you gone mental? Is everything going on too much for you?” “Yeah, could you help me?” he said with a coy smile, “Just one hug should be enough to take care of it all.” Isabel rolled her eyes. Without warning, he suddenly braced himself and lunged right at Isabel, stepping past Brandon who was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Isabel barely had time to react. Just when it seemed like his hand was about to graze Isabel, a long pair of arms seized Isabel from behind and jerked her backward. It was swiftly followed by a long, muscular leg shooting outward right next to Isabel. Thump! Decker was kicked to the ground.

"How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him. "Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?” What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation? She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.” Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?" “He proved his worth.” Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, “He passed the interviews himself. I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.” "

"I never meant to kill him! Roland, you have to believe me. Why would I still try to deceive you when I’m in this state?” “In that case, you can go ahead and explain things to him in the afterlife.” Master Rockwell was taken aback by this, his demeanor tightened. "You...you..." Roland looked at him calmly. "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. It was Grandma and my parents who raised me. They instilled morals and virtue into me and made sure I’d grow into a decent man.” Master Rockwell was briefly relieved to hear this, but before he could rid himself of his trepidation, Roland continued in a dark voice, "But I won’t forget about you and Decker bribing all those media outlets to defame Isabel. I know you manipulated the stock prices to try to kick me out of the corporation. I’ll make sure to settle our score through the legal system.” If convicted guilty, they would have to rot in prison. “Roland… listen to me, Roland. Decker is your uncle. If you want revenge, you can come

Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes. When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed. After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave. Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel. “Roland, Isabel, please have a seat.” Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say." Isabel stayed silent. A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I’m a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!” Isabel frowned. She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state t
