Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife Chapter 854
A few days later, there was a snowstorm in Westchester City that lasted from the evening until the next morning.When Sylvia woke up, she saw a thick layer of snow everywhere outside.Unfortunately, she was still recovering from giving birth and could not go out.She could only look through the window and watch Isabel rolling snowballs outside, her chubby face flushed from playing. She was obviously tired, but she did not forget to call out to Liam, asking him to help her with this and that.Aunt Tonya and Sebastian were worried about their safety, so they played with them in the yard.The little girl brought the party to the yard by herself, and Aunt Tonya and Sebastian laughed at her antics.Even little Flinty, whom Sylvia was holding in her arms, was staring at them with big, shiny eyes.Sylvia could not help but smile.It was not until a while later that Skylar suddenly walked in from outside.Sylvia was stunned and stood up with Flint in her arms.Skylar greeted Aunt Ton

At the same time, in Carter Tower, Odell was having a meeting with the executives.When he saw the call from Skylar, he picked up his phone, walked out of the conference room, and answered the phone. "Did you meet her?"Skylar quickly said, "I just came out of your house."He followed up by asking, "Is her depression cured?""Ms. Ross' state is much better than the last time I saw her, but depression isn't a physical illness. It won't go away so easily. However, I can confirm that she's in the healing stage now. As long as she maintains her current condition and doesn't get stimulated again, she should be able to get rid of her depression soon."Odell's face softened. "Okay, I got it."He hung up the phone and returned back to the conference room.Although Skylar's feedback was not what he wanted to hear, it was not bad either. He was in a good mood, so the few executives under him had a better time as well.The meeting went smoothly and was over before office hours ended in th

"Mm." Sylvia lay her face on his chest. Feeling the heat from his body, the chill she had from those scenes in the dream soon faded away.After a long while, she lifted her face to look at him and said directly, "I received a message from him today."Odell's eyes flickered. "From who?""Thomas."His eyes sank, and he raised his hand to touch her face, asking in a low voice, "When did he send it to you? What did he say?""It was after Skylar left. I wanted to bring Flint back to bed when I suddenly received a message from him. He asked me how I was doing recently. I didn't reply to him and blocked him directly," Sylvia answered honestly. Suddenly thinking of New Year's Eve, she looked at him again and said, "I sent him a message on New Year's Eve night, wanting to ask if he could let Aunt Tonya come back. I made a deal with him before that as long as I stayed in Westchester until New Year's Eve, he would let her come back, so I sent him a message that night just after midnight."

After breakfast, Odell took the same car to work as usual.Not long after he left, Sylvia took Isabel and Liam to the hospital where she gave birth.The chief doctor of the gynecology department was already waiting for her.Odell had most likely sponsored this hospital after she gave birth, so the doctor's attitude toward her was very warm. All kinds of tests were done very carefully. The examination report came out on the same day. Her body had recovered well, and there were no other complications.Sylvia was satisfied and led Isabel and Liam out of the hospital.Their car was in the parking lot where Jacob was waiting.Sylvia wanted to make a phone call to Odell, so she said to the children, "You two get in the car with Uncle Jacob first. Mommy will make a call to Daddy, and I'll be right there."Upon hearing that she was going to call Odell, Isabel agreed immediately and pulled Liam to the car with Jacob.Sylvia took out her phone and called Odell.The line rang twice befor

Isabel and Liam both looked at Sylvia. When they saw her panicked face, Isabel immediately asked, "What's wrong, Mommy? Did you meet a bad guy?"Sylvia snapped back to her senses and saw Isabel and Liam's worried eyes.She quickly hugged them, feeling their soft little bodies, and her emotions soon calmed down. She said, "I just saw a bad guy trying to rob someone at knifepoint, but he was stopped by the hospital security. I was just a little frightened, but I'm fine now.""Don't be scared, Mommy. Liam and I are here." Isabel immediately burrowed into her arms and hugged her.Liam frowned and said, "Mommy, don't walk around alone anymore.""Yeah, I know." Sylvia also did not think that she would run into Thomas in the short while she was alone when calling Odell.The little ones were most likely fooled by her excuse and did not ask any more questions. They merely sat close to her.However, Sylvia still felt very uneasy. She took out her phone and sent a message to Odell. "I saw

Even so, Sylvia's mood was still unsettled.'Why did he suddenly come back? He already released Aunt Tonya, so he should have intended to leave me alone. Why did he approach me again?'Just as she was feeling more and more uneasy, and her body went cold, a strong figure suddenly walked in through the doorway.Sylvia quickly looked up as her eyes brightened. "Odell?"Odell took a few big steps to her side and looked at her up and down. Then, he said to Isabel and Liam beside her, "Go back to your room."The little ones obediently got off the bed and followed Aunt Tonya out.Only Sylvia and Odell were left in the room along with Flint, who was sleeping soundly.Odell sat next to Sylvia and took her into his arms. One hand was wrapped around her, and one hand held her hands that were clasped together.It was only then that Sylvia noticed her hands were clasped together again. She quickly let go.Odell frowned and held one of her hands in his palm. Her body was still cold, and her

The spacious bedroom suddenly became hot.However, when the two were about to strip, a loud wail broke the tension.They immediately stopped moving.Not far away, Flint, who was still in swaddling clothes, was wailing.Odell frowned and looked at him with displeasure. "Shut up!"Flint continued to wail even louder than before.Odell reached toward him.Sylvia thought he was going to fling the baby and quickly held his hand. "Don't hurt him, Odell.""I'll give him to Aunt Tonya." His voice was still displeased.She instantly got out from underneath him and took the little one into her arms."He's hungry. He'll be fine after I feed him." Then, she lifted the top that he had unbuttoned.Thinking of something, she looked at him again and said with a simpering expression, "Can you turn around for a moment?"Odell frowned and instantly looked even more upset. However, he still turned around.Sylvia then started to feed Flint.The little one stopped crying the moment he got his
Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife Chapter 861
Seeing that Flint did not seem like he was about to cry, Sylvia tried to place him in Odell's arms.Unexpectedly, the little one lay obediently on Odell's chest as soon as he got into his arms, without crying or making a fuss.Sylvia laughed. "Odell, he's accepted you."Odell smiled and hummed.'Good, at least he knows that I'm his father.'He gently hugged Flint until the baby fell asleep on his chest."Flint?" Sylvia tried to call him.Flint still had his eyes closed, obviously asleep.Odell's expression changed, and he immediately carried the baby to the crib next to the bed. Then, he turned around and looked at Sylvia on the bed with a deep and wicked gaze.Sylvia blinked, and her cheeks reddened at a speed visible to the naked eye. The collar of her shirt was still loose, and her two fine, pale legs were casually folded to one side. She was like a quietly blooming flower, appearing soft and charming.His tall figure pressed toward her at once.Immediately, he pinned Syl

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
