Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife Chapter 369
Odell saw her avoid his gaze, and his eyes grew even more gloomy. However, the filter on the camera smoothed over his expression a lot.Sylvia only saw that he seemed to be a little upset, but she did not notice his terrible aura at the moment. When he did not say anything else, she said, "I'll hang up now if you don't need anything else."Mm."Sylvia then hung up.In a five-star hotel, far away in Liberty, Odell's expression darkened when he looked at the black phone screen.Cliff, who was standing not far away, trembled and lowered his head. He could not help but whisper, "Master Carter, the people sent to spy on Edmund say that it really did seem like a coincidence that he met Madam the past two days. They only said a few words to each other. I think Madam is reluctant to mention him to you because she's afraid that you'll misunderstand and get angry."Odell pursed his lips coldly.'Is she afraid that I'll misunderstand and get angry? If she's scared that I'll misunderstand,

In a five-star hotel in Liberty, Cliff, who had just finished a phone call, went to the suite where Odell was resting.In the living room, Odell was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, reviewing documents.Upon seeing Cliff come in, Odell glanced at him and asked, "Is there any news from Westchester City?"Cliff smiled and replied, "Master Carter, the people sent to watch Edmund say that he didn't meet up with Madam again today when he went to and fro work."The cold look in Odell's eyes eased up a little. "Tell them to keep watching him.""Yes, sir," Cliff answered and withdrew.However, Odell's expression was still a little dark. He still did not understand why Sylvia suddenly wanted to do the school run for the past few days.Coincidentally, Edmund's recent workplace was near the kindergarten as well.Was he overthinking?...In the blink of an eye, it was Friday again.That evening, Sylvia picked up Isabel and Liam on time and returned to the Carters' reside

Odell's eyes flickered as his lips curled. "Why? Miss me?"Sylvia avoided his gaze and said, "No, but Isabel and Liam do."To the side, Isabel was immersed in her toys and did not hear Sylvia at all. Liam looked her way, but then lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the Megaminx.Odell pursed his lips and said, "It'll be around another three days before I can go back."Sylvia responded somewhat bashfully, "Okay."At that moment, Cliff's figure appeared behind Odell and said, "Master Carter, it's time to go to the conference room."Odell hummed and said to Sylvia, "I'll talk to you later.""Okay."Sylvia hung up.Meanwhile, inside a building in Liberty, Odell got up and walked outside.Cliff followed him and could not help but ask, "Master Carter, didn't you book a flight back tonight? Why did you tell the Madam that you'll be back in three days?"Odell remembered her asking when he would be back during the video call, and his mood which had been low for several days

Early the next morning, the sun rose as usual.After having breakfast, Sylvia took the kids and followed Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya into an MPV.The car drove straight to Northpeak. It took almost an hour before the car arrived at the resort and stopped in front of a very distinctive inn.The steward came out to greet them enthusiastically.Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya got out of the car first. Sylvia then carried Isabel and Liam out of the car and walked in with them.The resort used a membership system, so non-members could not enter. At that moment, not far from the entrance of the resort, Melanie, who had followed them here, was stopped from entering.She quickly went back to the car and called Tara.The call was answered quickly, and she told Tara that she followed Sylvia to this resort.Tara asked, "Are you sure it's the new holiday resort at Northpeak?""Yes, I even tried to go in, but they stopped me because I'm not a member."Tara said anxiously, "Then, hurry up and

Sylvia replied with a frank expression, "Yes, Grandmother. This is Edmund, and those two are Harry and Lloyd."Edmund also heard their conversation and flashed a polite smile, greeting them, "Hello, Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya."After he spoke, Lloyd and Harry also greeted Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya. They were just like students meeting a teacher as both of them straightened their backs and looked incredibly obedient.Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya instantly laughed in amusement and chatted with them.Sylvia also could not help but giggle.They did not talk much and simply exchanged a few pleasantries. Sylvia carried Isabel back and followed Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya out of the inn.Edmund also took Harry and Lloyd to the suite where they were staying.The corridor soon quieted down.Melanie emerged from the shadows with an annoyed frown on her face. Although Sylvia and Edmund chatted a little earlier, there were too many people. No matter which angle she tried to take the pict

Unfortunately, there were only four seats on the bamboo raft.Aunt Tonya immediately said, "I'll get seasick, so I won't join the ride. You guys can go on."Sylvia knew that Aunt Tonya was trying to give up her seat, so she put her life jacket on Aunt Tonya. "Aunt Tonya, this is a bamboo raft, so you won't get seasick. Grandmother and you can ride with the children. I'll wait here for you."Aunt Tonya could not persuade her otherwise, so she helped Madam Carter onto the raft.Sylvia said to the little ones, "Have fun, but pay attention to your safety. Mommy will wait for you here.""Okay. We know, Mommy," Isabel responded crisply.Liam also hummed and then led his sister to sit on the two seats in front of Madam Carter and Aunt Tonya.The long bamboo raft soon drifted away from the shore under the guidance of the boatman, rowing toward the other side in the direction of the flowing water.The weather today was very pleasant, and the breeze was cool and comfortable. The scenery

Sylvia was stunned.It seemed like he came here to look for her.She asked instead, "How did you know I was here?"Edmund replied, "I heard from a lady that you came up here alone. She said that it wasn't safe up here and asked me to come to call you down."Sylvia was still confused.The hill looked very tall, but there were reinforced guardrails on both sides. How could it not be safe?However, no one went to the hill, so maybe the kind-hearted lady was just worried that Sylvia came up alone.She did not think much about it and told him, "Grandmother and Aunt Tonya took the kids to ride on a bamboo raft. It could only seat four people, so I didn't follow them."Edmund looked relieved at her words. "Then, why did you come up here?""The scenery here seemed nice."He touched his nose and stopped asking any further."Grandmother is seasick, so I'll go check up on her. You can go find Lloyd and the others. Don't mind me," she said and went forward."Alright."Edmund also turn

The ambulance drove off in the blink of an eye. Sylvia was stunned for a moment before she started running. She wanted to catch up to the ambulance so that she could accompany Odell and Madam Carter to the hospital. She had to tell him the truth! However, before she could even shorten the distance, the ambulance disappeared beyond her sight. She also tripped on a piece of brick and fell on the ground. The ground felt cold, and so were her feelings. Just when she was at a loss as to what she should do, Edmund came by. He helped her up from the ground and said, “Syl, don’t worry. I’ll send you there.” As she got to her feet, she resolved to leave her negative emotions on the icy cold ground. “Okay!” She could not allow herself to be misunderstood like before. Sylvia ran to the parking lot with Edmund and got into his car. The car roared to a start and drove off the resort. Twenty minutes later, Edmund took her to the nearest first aid center. “Syl, if I’m corr

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
