Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife Chapter 217
Odell was probably already back at the venue.Sylvia really did not want to see him.She sent a message to Simon saying that she had to leave first, then took another exit to leave the hotel....After leaving the hotel, she went back home.When she returned, she took another shower and changed her clothes. The strange feeling that enveloped her body dissipated greatly.'It's impossible for that man to have feelings for me. He's either tired of Tara, or he wants to take advantage of me because I'm not bad-looking.'Either way, he's just a scumbag!'Sylvia cursed him a few times in her heart and took out her phone to call Isabel and Liam.When she heard their soft and childish voices, her restless mood soon regained its calm....At the hotel, the evening party ended on time.Odell glanced at Sylvia's empty seat, and his face clouded with a cold expression.'That woman didn't come back after I returned. She obviously ran away.'He got up with a cold face and prepared to le

The next few days, Isabel and Liam came to find her every morning.It was New Year's Eve. Sylvia had just finished her breakfast and was about to wait for them to come over when she received a call from Isabel.The little girl grumbled over the phone, "Mom, that baddie won't let Liam and me go to you."Her girlish voice was tinged with a sob. She probably had a fight with Odell.Sylvia quickly coaxed her. "It's okay. It's New Year's Eve today. You and Liam can stay at home."Isabel pouted. "But we want to see you."Sylvia wanted to see them more than anything, but she could not deal with Odell at all. After thinking about it, she said, "Be a good girl. It's only for today. It'll be over soon."Isabel did not say anything. She was probably pouting unhappily.Sylvia said, "Listen to Mommy, okay, Isabel?"Isabel let out a hum.Then, Liam's voice rang out from the phone. "Don't worry, Mom. Isabel and I will be good."Sylvia smiled. "Good boy, Liam."Soon, she hung up the phone.

Tara happily replied, "Okay, I'll wait for you to have New Year's Eve dinner together."Odell hummed.Tara soon drove the car away and left.Odell glanced toward the intersection leading to Sylvia's place.'Why hasn't that woman come over yet? Doesn't she want to see the children?'He stood there for a while longer.There was only the occasional vehicle passing by the intersection, but no one came. His expression sank, and he turned around and went into the gate....Sylvia helped Aunt Tonya with work at home all day.After the house was cleaned, they put up decorations for the New Year.In the afternoon, she went to the kitchen to make some snacks.After eating lunch with Aunt Tonya, she brought the snacks and went to the old Carters' residence.It was almost 8 p.m. by now.The guard at the gate opened the door for her directly.Soon, Sylvia arrived in the living room.In the warm living room, Isabel and Liam were both wearing cute home clothes and sitting beside Madam

The waiter came up to them.Sherry boldly slapped the wine list in front of Sylvia. "Syl, order whatever you want. Don't hold back on my account."Sylvia laughed. "Okay."Then, she ordered two drinks with the lowest alcohol content, which were cheaper by comparison.Sherry looked at her in disappointment and said to the waiter, "Bring up our best wine."Sylvia hurriedly said, "No, you know that I can't drink well."Sherry smiled. "You can't drink, but I can. We're not leaving sober tonight."Sylvia hummed helplessly. "Fine."This was Sherry's territory anyway. Besides, it was New Year's Eve. The most important thing was to have a good time.Soon, the waiter came up with a trolley of drinks.Sherry opened one bottle directly and said, "Let's have a toast, Syl."Sylvia raised her glass and clinked it with her bottle.Sherry laughed. "Cheers to us two homeless people on New Year's!"Then, she drank straight from the bottle.Sylvia took a sip and saw that Sherry was still chu

However, her expression soon went cold. Not long after that, she thought of something and laughed sinisterly.Then, she pulled up the contacts that she had hidden.There was only one person on the list: Mr. Price.When she saw these two words, her face paled instinctively for a moment. Her eyes were filled with fear, unease, and disgust.She took a deep breath, typed a message, and sent it. "Mr. Price, Happy New Year. I hear that you haven't had a girlfriend for a long time. Have you met anyone suitable? I happen to know one that suits your tastes. Do you want to see her?"It took a long time before the other party replied. "Show me."Tara immediately sent him Sylvia's photo.He did not reply.However, Tara knew that he had set his eyes on Sylvia....Meanwhile, Odell's black sports car stopped in front of the old residence.The guard immediately ran to open the door.Odell got out of the car and walked inside.As he strode, he asked, "Did Sylvia come over tonight?""Yes.

The man replied politely, "I'm a waiter at Lush Heaven. Ms. Ross drank too much, and Ms. Fowler went out somewhere. We really don't know how to send Ms. Ross home. Would it be convenient for you to come and pick her up?"Odell's expression eased up. However, when he thought about the fact that Sylvia had actually gone to Lush Heaven with Sherry and gotten drunk, his voice subconsciously cooled. "Watch her. I'm going over now."He hung up the phone, quickly changed out of his pajamas, and went out....In Lush Heaven, the nightlife was at its peak.The crowd swayed to the booming music while the air was filled with the smell of alcohol.On the second floor, by the railings, Sylvia was drunk and confused. She did not know when Sherry had left.At that moment, she sat up in a daze, wanting to ask the waiter to get her a glass of water.However, as soon as she turned around, she saw several young men in floral print shirts around her. Most of them had tattoos on their exposed arms,

His smile was incredibly infuriating.Sylvia frowned and raised her hand to slap his head.Whack!Edmund's head snapped to the side, and the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground.The entire room was instantly silent as Blondie and the others were dumbstruck.'How dare she hit Mr. Price? She must be tired of living!'They looked at Sylvia again.However, she merely laid back down with her head resting on her hands and closed her eyes to sleep.Blondie and the others looked at Edmund in confusion. If he was upset, they would immediately throw Sylvia out.However, Edmund, who was the type to order a person's hands and legs to be cut off when he was displeased, was not angry in the slightest. Instead, he smiled at Sylvia. He touched the spot where Sylvia hit him and grinned wickedly. "Interesting."Then, he lowered his head toward Sylvia again.Sylvia, who was sleeping, also sensed that something was wrong and quickly opened her eyes. Almost subconsciously, she reached out

Edmund glared at him. "Get out of the way."Then, he took a step forward and crouched down in front of Sylvia. He reached out and cupped her face, grinning at her. "Girl, do you know what will happen if you offend me?"Sylvia spat at him. "Bah! Let me go!"Edmund closed his eyes, wiped the saliva off his face, and pulled her into his arms. He looked at her like a hungry wolf eying a rabbit. "Would you believe me if I said that I'll f*ck you here right now?"Sylvia spat at him again, rendering him speechless.Beside him, Blondie and Grasshead were also at a loss for words.'What the hell? 'She's still playing like that?'There was a moment of silence in the room.Edmund smiled coldly and looked at Sylvia with a fierce glare. "I'm going to teach you a lesson tonight. I swear on my name!"In an instant, he stood up and picked her up. Then, he threw her directly on the sofa.At the same time, the door was suddenly kicked open with a bang.A man's tall and strong figure stood at

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
