Lahat ng Kabanata ng Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife: Kabanata 1991 - Kabanata 2000

It was a day with dark clouds overcast in the sky above. An engagement ceremony was happening on this fateful day. By the time Isabel had rushed over after receiving news of the engagement, the main characters of the night were in the middle of exchanging their engagement rings, witnessed by their relatives and friends. Even from a distance, she could recognize the young man in a dazzling white suit. "Decker!” She let out a tremendous shout with everything she had in her. She ran onto the red carpet and tried to stop the man on stage from putting on the ring. A thick silence fell over the scene. Everyone turned to look at the brazen woman who had intruded on the ceremony. Decker, who was facing his fiancée with the brightest smile ever seen, turned around and regarded Isabel with a look of shock. His expression was then quickly masked over with stark indifference. As if Isabel was a stranger to him. The way he looked at Isabel made her heart throb, but more so t

Isabel wrote a reply with the hand that was not aching, “Yeah, I’m home.” Flint asked, “I saw Roland helping you into the car, was he the one who sent you home?” Isabel replied, “Yeah, I asked him to drive me home.” Flint lectured her. “Sis, I know that you’re the one who hired him. But don’t forget that he’s still the vice president of Carter Corporation at the end of the day. He’s already busy enough with work, now you’re troubling him with having to send you home.” Isabel grimaced. “It’s along the way anyway.” It was true, Roland lived in the high-end residential area next to hers. They first met on a fateful night a year ago. That night, she had just finished shooting a scene and was about to head home for a good night’s rest when she nearly ran over Roland in the middle of the road. It was in a remote part of the town that rarely saw any traffic. He had been waiting for his rental car for ages to no avail and ended up resorting to stopping the first car that h

Isabel’s itinerary for the day was filled out. After shooting a scene before noon, she rushed to the studio for an appearance on a variety show. It was midnight by the time she got home. Her stomach was growling. Just as the car was about to pull into her apartment complex, she called after the driver, “Stop.” The driver stopped the car. Carla stifled a yawn and asked, “Isabel, what's wrong?" "I'm going to get something to eat, do you want anything?” Isabel asked. Carla suddenly appeared conflicted for a moment, she stammered after a brief silence, "Okay, I’ll go with you.” Carla had been working for Isabel for several years now. Isabel was very perceptive of even her mildest gestures. Sensing that Carla was exhausted, she dismissed her for the day. “You know what, you better get some rest, I’ll go myself.” Carla grew concerned. "I should go with you, it’s so late already.” "There are police patrols in the area, I’ll be fine. Don’t worry.” With that,

Isabel had eaten Roland’s mother’s cooking several times. The first time was after Roland was officially hired as the vice president of Carter Corporation. He mentioned that this was his mother’s way of thanking Isabel for helping her back then. Isabel never thought much of what she did for his mother since it did not take much effort on her part. However, Roland sounded very sincere when he invited her. Another factor was his irresistibly handsome face which made it near impossible for her to say no. She thought it was going to be a regular meal and wanted to get it over with quickly. To her surprise, his mother had made a sumptuous feast fit for a king where the table was stacked full of different dishes and all of them tasted of gourmet quality. She even thought she was dining at a five-star restaurant at one point. Furthermore, it was cuisine from Southboro that she had not tasted for a long time. Although Southboro was a place associated with painful memories, the q

It was only after Max began working closely with Isabel that he got a firm grasp on her temper. She was easy to get along with. She was also a terrific actor and very intelligent. She treated people the same way they treated her. If you were on good terms with her, she would treat you kindly as well. If you stayed out of her way, she would keep out of your way as well. However, if you dared to get on her bad side, she would make sure you got what you deserved. There had been several stars who tried to usurp her place, but it did not work out well for any of them. Max admired and respected her very much, he was also wary of offending her. He smiled sheepishly at Isabel after. Isabel fell into a pensive silence, then she probed. "How much is he investing?” Max shaped the figure with his fingers. Isabel's eyes glowed up. One hundred million! Certainly a hefty investment. "Okay, I'll go." She readily agreed. Given such a sizable investment, they no long
