Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife Chapter 864
Sylvia's heart thudded. The unhappy feeling of being tossed around all night until she developed a fever inexplicably disappeared.She pursed her lips and nursed Flint.Aunt Tonya stood next to her and could not help but smile secretly when she saw Sylvia's happy face.The trauma of those six months had finally passed. It would be best if Thomas never appeared again....The scene where Thomas appeared suddenly was like an illusion.For the next few days, Sylvia did hear any news from him, and she did not receive any messages from him on her phone either. He seemed to have disappeared from Westchester.Did he suddenly appear in front of the hospital that day just to see her and ask how she was doing?Sylvia warily cooped herself up at home for most of the month before she could no longer resist going out.Isabel and Liam started school long ago.That morning, Sylvia took Flint and sent them to preschool with Aunt Tonya, then went to the nearby shopping street for a stroll.I

The colors were either black or gray.Odell raised his brows. "That's it?""Yes. The clothes are made of quality materials, so they won't tear easily. They should last for a while." Furthermore, they were not expensive, so she would not feel bad even if he tore one every day.Odell curled his lips and asked, "Did you buy some for yourself too?""Yeah.""Show me."Sylvia frowned. "There's nothing to see. I didn't ask to see yours either."Odell narrowed his eyes. "I won't wear them, but I want to see."His wicked eyes seemed to see through her at a glance.Sylvia's face grew hot, and many scenes of her being bullied by him suddenly flashed in her mind. She was embarrassed for no reason and refused him directly, "I don't want to."Odell strode in front of her, pinned her to the wardrobe, and lifted her chin. His thin lips brushed against her own as he said in a husky and overbearing voice, "If you don't wear it tonight, then you don't get to wear it. Period."Sylvia could not

Since the day she went out for a stroll, Sylvia had been going out for a walk every now and then.Thomas might really not appear again. Almost three months had passed, but Sylvia did not see him, let alone receive any news about him.Her days were beautiful and peaceful.Flint was almost half a year old. His height had doubled, he was chubby and round, and cute as hell.The temperature also rose sharply, and it was soon the hot summer season.Isabel and Liam were on summer vacation again, but Odell did not keep them idle and arranged a summer tutor for them to continue their studies.Liam was fine since the syllabus and homework were not difficult for him, but Isabel never liked studying. She got sleepy in class and slacked off whenever she got the chance, using the excuse that she had to take care of her younger brother, Flint. In fact, she simply watched him play and showed off how good she was at playing games in front of him.The little girl was an expert at acting pampered.

Sylvia frowned and muttered, "How did I sleep for so long?"She had actually slept for almost three hours.After saying that, she sat up and took Flint into her arms.The little guy must be hungry.Just as she was about to lift her top, the man's pleasant voice rang out again. "He already fed in the living room."Sylvia remembered the spare milk she left in the fridge. She had slept for a long time, so Aunt Tonya and the others must have fed him.Suddenly, there was a warm touch on her forehead.Odell ruffled the stray hair in front of her forehead and said softly, "Tomorrow is the weekend. Let's go out shopping."Sylvia thought about it and said, "It's been too hot lately. Forget it."She did not have to worry about Isabel and Liam, but Flint was still small and had to be looked after constantly, so it was troublesome. Aunt Tonya and the others were not young anymore, and Sylvia did not want to trouble them.Odell said, "Leave the kids at home. We'll go out alone."Sylvia l

Odell walked in.Sylvia's back was turned to him. When she sensed him approach her, she asked, "Can you help me with the zip?"The man was silent for a moment and raised his hand to tug the zipper on her back. His warm fingertips brushed against her skin, and Sylvia's nerves inexplicably tingled, making her back go numb.Before she could snap back to her senses, a loud rip rung out.Her chest instantly felt tight, and she almost could not catch her breath. She turned her head and glared at him. "Who told you to pull it up?"The man raised his brows slightly, his deep eyes looking at her bulging chest."Didn't you want me to zip you up?" he asked instead, his voice low and magnetic.Sylvia instantly noticed something wrong and looked at him with a blush. "Stop looking. Hurry up and undo my zipper. This dress is too tight. I have to change into another one."Then, she turned her back to him again.However, the next second, the man's arms circled around her waist and pulled her i

There were not many people walking around.Sylvia was just pondering about where it would be more comfortable to go shopping when the car pulled into the largest luxury mall in Westchester. The mall retailed luxury brands from all over the world, including all kinds of jewelry and bags.However, she frowned and asked, "Why did you bring me here, Odell?""To shop.""This is a luxury mall." Sylvia was in no way short of jewelry and was not that interested in stuff like these."Aren't you women all about shopping?""Shopping doesn't necessarily mean we have to go to a mall. There are so many fun places in Westchester."The car had already stopped, so Odell ignored her and dragged her out. Only after they entered the mall, he let go of her.Since they were already there, Sylvia did not insist on going back and strolled about with him.As expected of a mall where luxury brands converged, the interior design was very opulent, and many display windows were exquisitely decorated.Syl

Sylvia shopped around the floor with him again.When they reached the elevator, she wanted to go down, but he held her hand and went upstairs instead."Let's go to one more floor to shop before we eat," he said. His tone was strong and gave her no room for refusal.Sylvia held back her anger.'Whatever. We've already covered two floors. What's one more?'Taking the elevator, they soon arrived at the third floor.As soon as they came up, they saw a spacious gallery.It was a temporary art gallery, which meant that someone was probably holding an exhibition here. Many famous paintings were displayed outside the entrance.Sylvia stopped and could not help but look over.Odell held her hand and asked, "Do you want to go in and have a look?"As soon as his voice fell, a familiar and beautiful figure came out of the gallery.Lily's expression was startled as if she did not expect to meet them. Her eyes swept over the shopping bags that Sylvia and Odell were carrying, then she smil

Unexpectedly, Odell smiled and answered, "Okay."Not only did he agree easily, but his low and magnetic voice also seemed to be a little doting on her.Sylvia's heart trembled, and she could not help but press herself against him, holding his arm as they walked to the parking lot.Meanwhile, in the gallery on the third floor of the mall, Lily stood in front of the window wall, watching their intimate figures leave.When Sylvia and Odell left by car, she immediately took out her phone and called Thomas.The line rang for a while before connecting, and she asked coldly, "Second Master, more than three months have passed. When exactly will your plan start? Are you going to let Sylvia give birth to his fourth child before you start?"She got angrier the more she spoke.Especially when she thought back to the scene of Odell holding Sylvia earlier, and how he held Sylvia's shopping bags for her.He was the master of the Carter family and the head of the entire Carter Corporation.

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
