Lahat ng Kabanata ng Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife: Kabanata 1281 - Kabanata 1290

Sylvia stayed at home as she had done the past few days, accompanying Madam Carter with Flint and listening to her reminisce about the old days.Odell also came back early and sat nearby with a book. No one knew if he was reading or eavesdropping on their chat.When the sky turned dark, Madam Carter said she was tired and went straight to sleep.Sylvia tucked the energetic Flint into her arms and pushed Madam Carter into her room. After putting the old woman to bed with the help of the maid, Sylvia came out.It was when she passed by the window that she saw John walking in through the gate. A bodyguard held an umbrella beside him. John was dressed in casual clothes and held Caprice in his arms. He looked very different from his usual business-like attire of a white shirt and black pants.At first glance, he looked like a gentle father.Sylvia was startled, then quickly stepped to the living room door. "What are you doing here again?"As she spoke, her eyes also looked toward Cap

John's soul seemed to have left his body. He did not react even when the little girl cried for a long time.Sylvia quickly walked over. "John, is Caprice hungry? Check on her."Only then did he gaze down at Caprice. His expression changed. In a short while, he smiled at Caprice. "Don't cry, sweetheart. Daddy is here."Then, he took out a pacifier and a milk bottle from the bag he was carrying. The little girl stopped crying after sucking on the pacifier and cooed as she gurgled on the milk in his arms.Sylvia pursed her lips.Odell dragged Flint back into his arms and silently straightened his lips into a thin line....Meanwhile, in Coastrock City, thousands of miles from Westchester, it was raining cats and dogs.The raindrops pelted the ground mercilessly.Sherry crouched by the roadside alone, her hands covering her face as she trembled all over.After a while, a passerby kindly patted her shoulder. "Miss, are you okay?"Sherry immediately sniffled and raised her face. H

Shermaine was anxious for a moment, then she immediately took out her phone and made a call.After the call was connected, she said hurriedly, "Assistant Bogard, the young master came to the company earlier, but I told him to wait because Master Carter was in a meeting. I didn't expect him to disappear while I went out to buy him some ice cream."Cliff quickly said, "Calm down and search around the entrance first. I'll get some people and go find him.""Okay, I'll go to the entrance."After hanging up the phone, Shermaine threw the ice cream into the trash can and walked in the direction of the main entrance.Meanwhile, in a spacious conference room on the tenth floor of the building, a routine executive meeting was in session.At the head of the table was a man dressed in a black suit, sitting elegantly in a leather chair. His face was indifferent without any emotion other than seriousness. The atmosphere in the meeting room was also very solemn.Anyone who spoke first subconsc

Odell held Flint in one hand and a briefcase in the other. He had been very busy recently, and she only saw him once every four to five days.The last time she saw him was four days ago. These days, Sylvia was also busy with work matters and accompanying Madam Carter, so she did not have much contact with him.She grinned at him. "Odell, did Flint cause you any trouble?"Odell curled his lips and was just about to say something when Flint piped up, "Mommy, I was a good boy."Then, he buried his face into the crook of his father's neck in guilt.Odell carried him into the elevator.Sylvia glanced at the little guy and asked Odell, "Where are you taking him?"Odell handed her the briefcase which she took."Nowhere. We're going home," he replied while pressing the button for the first floor with his free hand.The elevator descended.Sylvia asked curiously, "Aren't you busy?""Well, I'm almost done for today.""Oh." She did not ask any more questions or say anything else.Ode

"So, you don't miss me at all, do you?""I... How can you say that I don't miss you?" They were already husband and wife. Were they supposed to stick to each other all day? Besides, he was the one who was always busy with work.Sylvia frowned as she looked at him, confused and speechless.Odell looked at her coldly. "Today, Flint went all the way to the office to find me because he missed me. Why didn't you come to me even once?"She was dumbfounded."This afternoon, you only went to the company to find Flint. On the way back, you only focused on playing with him and didn't ask about me at all. Do you even care about me?"She either painted or spent time with Madam Carter and the children all day. He went out to work every day, but she never went to the office once to see him!The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He pinched her face again and said coldly, "Sylvia, am I just a husband on paper to you?"Sylvia was speechless. Her eyes were wide open, and her expre
