Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife Chapter 1760
Sherry sat motionlessly in her office for some time. It was only when one of her staff knocked on her door to inform her that it was going to rain outside and wondered why she was not leaving yet that she was finally pulled out of her trance. She looked outside. It was dark. On any other day, it would still be relatively bright outside at this hour. She tried to shrug off her thoughts and got up. It began raining very soon after. It was nowhere near a downpour but it was enough to affect the traffic condition. Although her place was only several junctions away, she was held up in traffic for almost an hour before finally reaching home. She swerved into her parking space in the parking lot. She did not have an umbrella in her car. She braced herself for a sprint into the building. Moments before she threw the door open, she spotted two familiar figures approaching her car. One was a tall figure and the other was a child. It was John and Caprice. John held Capr

Sherry hid outside the door, gulping as she watched the girl munching on her food. It was then she sensed a gaze on her. She looked up and met John’s gaze. The man was looking at her with a smile. Embarrassed, Sherry quickly turned away and sat back on the couch. She picked up the tablet and played a cartoon on it, pretending that she was watching. It was raining like cats and dogs outside, which formed a contrast to the quiet environment indoors. The smell of food from the tablet stimulated her saliva. She had lost count of how many times she gulped because of the temptation. Then, Caprice’s chubby figure waddled towards her from the kitchen. She was holding two pieces of meatloaf in each hand, one bitten into and one still fresh. She handed the fresh one to Sherry. “Mommy, Daddy made this for you. It’s delicious!” Sherry was surprised. Caprice pushed the meatloaf closer to tempt her. Since the girl had taken the effort to deliver it, she might as well accept it. S

John’s eyes brightened with joy. He said, “It seems like the storm is not stopping anytime soon.” Sherry furrowed her brows. It was raining cats and dogs outside, and she had no idea where John lived, so it would be dangerous for him to go back now. Irritated, she said, “Then, you can stay here for the night.” John curled his lips. Even Caprice giggled out of delight. Sherry added, “The couch is yours.” She only had one room in her apartment, and there was no way she would let the man sleep on the same bed. John smiled and said, “Of course.” Caprice squealed happily, “Yay! Caprice can finally sleep with Daddy!” It had been a while since the girl slept with her father. Sherry was instantly rendered speechless. John said, “Why don’t you guys take the bed and I can sleep on the floor?” Sherry glared at him. “No way!” …Right after Sherry bathed Caprice, the girl ran out to John. Sherry came out with a blanket. She said to Caprice, who was dozing off in John’s ar

When she got up, she looked around and was slightly confused. While she was trying to wrap her head around the situation, Caprice’s adorable voice came from outside, so Sherry got out of bed. The girl was already dressed and had just come back with John. The table was filled with a luxurious breakfast spread, and the girl was eating a bun in John’s arms. When the father and daughter heard the door opening, they turned to her. Caprice’s eyes gleamed. She called out adorably, “Mommy, you are awake!” John smiled. “Morning.” Sherry’s eyes flickered. “How did I end up in the bedroom?” She clearly remembered sleeping on the couch last night. John said with a smile, “I carried you in.” Sherry frowned. John added, “I slept on the couch last night.” What he wanted to say was that he did not sleep with her on the same bed. Sherry was not particularly angry, but she hummed reluctantly as a reply. She walked over to the table and asked, “How much are all these?” “There’s a re

Caprice stopped running immediately. She looked up at her father and asked in a worried tone, “Daddy, how did you catch a cold?” Sherry looked away and turned a deaf ear. John glanced at her and then said to Caprice, “Maybe because I got wet in the rain last night.” He added, “Don’t worry, Caprice. I’ve taken medicine. I’ll be healthy in no time.” Caprice hummed a reply. She waddled forth to her father, crawled up to his arms, and touched his forehead with her warm little hands. “Caprice gives you warmth.” John smiled. “Thank you, Caprice.” “You are welcome, Daddy.” Irritated, Sherry pursed her lips. She pulled her phone out and located the breakfast shop that John had ordered from yesterday. She ordered extra soup after getting the mains, and since she did not want him to think that she got the soup just for him, she got three bowls of the same soup. …The day went by in the blink of an eye. Sherry got caught up in work and came back an hour later than usual. John a

Sherry went to the bathroom to wash up before she went out. When she opened the door, she saw the man dressing up in front of her. He had his pants on and was putting on his shirt. The first light shone through the window and highlighted his slender and fit physique. Sherry’s eyes widened. John turned around at the same time. Flustered, her eyes flickered. She bellowed, “Why are you dressing up now?!” John replied with a smile, “I usually wake up around this hour to get dressed.” He buttoned his shirt as he spoke, covering his beautiful body underneath the shirt. Sherry regained her calm and said, “Do not put on your shirt here.” He asked, “Then, where should I wear my shirt?” Sherry had no answer to his question. Her apartment was by no means huge. There was only a living room, a kitchen, and her own room. Telling John to get dressed in the kitchen would not seem to work either. A moment of silence later, she unreasonably said, “I don’t care. I don’t want to see

The security guards wanted to stop Ada from following Carl. However, Ada skillfully shook them off with a couple of fake moves. They went for her from the right, but she slipped past them from the left and went after Carl. “Carl, I’d rather die if I can’t be with you!” Carl frowned. His expression spelled frustration. Ada was startled by his reaction. She staggered but remained determined. Sherry and the other employees were stunned by the commotion. The other employees got closer to have a better look. Sherry was watching and hiding behind two employees, and when they moved, she was exposed. Ada was right in front of the entrance, and she spotted Sherry when she went after Carl. Her bloodshot eyes widened in shock. It was as though she ran into her arch-nemesis. “Sherry Fowler!” Carl stopped and turned around to Sherry. Sherry pursed her lips. She immediately followed the other employees to the entrance. “I still have to go to work. You guys go on. Calm down a

Ada burst into tears again. “Carl, I really like you.” “I have a ton of women who like me. Do I need to marry every single one of them?” Carl bellowed. Ada continued, “But Sherry doesn’t even like you and she’s been tempting you. She’s still seeing her ex-husband! She’s a bitch who has her feet in two boats!” Carl’s gaze turned frosty as he glared at her. “Shut the fuck up!” Ada had never seen such anger from Carl. Startled, she immediately pursed her lips in silence. Carl glared at her. “I don’t care if she likes me or not. If I hear one more word from you that bad-mouths her, I’ll throw you to the sharks!” Ada quivered out of fear. She dared not even argue or move anymore. Carl ignored her and headed inside. A while later, the security guards came over and threw her out on the street. Many of the employees saw Ada tumble a few times wretchedly before she got up on her feet. Carl had already left. She was surrounded by a group of people who looked at her scornfully.

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
