Lahat ng Kabanata ng Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife: Kabanata 931 - Kabanata 940

There were no pictures of John online. There was not much information either and all Sylvia could find were brief details. For instance, there were details about him getting banished from the Stockton family around six years ago, for reasons unknown. What happened to him after that was a complete mystery, up until two years ago when he suddenly re-emerged as the wealthiest plutocrat in Glanchester. He had single-handedly built up the tourism and entertainment industry in Glanchester and made the city a leader in these sectors. Shortly after that, the Stockton family, who had been on a steady decline since his departure, decided to relocate from Westchester City to Glanchester. John was accepted back into the family and revived them to their previous glory and more. They were now the icon of Glanchester. There was a particular remark that caught Sylvia’s attention which wrote: Benevolent and ruthless beyond imagination. She wrinkled her brows upon noting this. These two t

Cliff was still perplexed. Even though the project was not a minor one, it was not impotent enough to warrant an in-person survey from the leader of Carter Corporation. It would have made more sense to send someone over to dig up the details. Still, Odell must have his reasons for wanting to do it himself. Cliff knew his place and did not pester him with more questions. "Okay, I'll let them know first thing tomorrow morning." After hanging up, Odell put the phone beside the bed and looked out the window gloomily. If his suspicions were correct, the reason Sylvia tossed and turned in bed and had trouble falling asleep was that she was worried about Sherry. He knew that John would welcome him in person when he visited Glanchester. It would be a good chance for him to talk to him about Sherry and gauge how he felt toward Sherry. This was the least he could do to put Sylvia at rest. ... A day later, in the evening. Sylvia was on her phone and was just about to buy a tr

Odell considered briefly. “Whatever is the specialty in Glanchester.” Sylvia was not a picky eater anyway, so she could stomach any food that tasted good. She had more than enough of her favorite food back in Westchester City. Since they were in Glanchester, they should try whatever the local specialty was. Peter nodded. Then he turned and gave instructions to the others who came with him. Meanwhile, Sylvia had been rabidly taking pictures. It was only after she finally took some pictures that she was satisfied with when she finally felt several pairs of eyes on her. There was Odell and Cliff, along with several men in suits. They were probably the ones Odell was meeting up with to discuss business. She immediately put away her phone and trotted back to Odell. She whispered cautiously, "I'm sorry, am I taking up your time?” Odell brushed the hair from her forehead and tucked it behind her ear. Then he took her hand and answered her, "No." “Mrs. Carter, good t

Sylvia chuckled awkwardly and mentioned, “Something happened a short while ago and I lost my memory." She had explained this to so many people that she had the entire monologue memorized. Zach was understandably baffled by this. “Wait, you lost your memory?” “Yes, I forgot everything that happened the last nine years. It's not that I intentionally forgot who you were.” “I guess that makes sense, you look different from when I saw you the last time.” Zach sighed and sounded slightly disappointed, then he suddenly asked when a thought occurred to him, “Do you recall there being this man called Odell?” Sylvia was not expecting this question of all things but answered truthfully, “I do, we’ve known each other since we were very young. I already knew him nine years ago.” “I see.” He sighed again, seemingly disappointed and frustrated. Suddenly, a strange smile formed on his face as he asked, “Are you still with him now?" "Why are you asking this?" Sylvia was rather confu

After the two had come to an agreement, Zach took Sylvia out to the entrance. Jacob was standing guard waiting for her and the moment he saw her, he ran up to her and nervously inspected her up and down, worried that something had happened to her while she was gone. Sylvia smiled and reassured him. "I'm fine, I just took a lap inside.” Jacob breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Madam, do you want to go anywhere else?” "No, let's go back to the hotel." “Okay.” ... Inside the penthouse suite of the hotel. Both Cliff and Peter were standing by the entrance to the study with their backs perched straight and at attention. The door was closed. Not a word coming from inside the study could be heard. Meanwhile, the two men were seated by a tea table inside the study. Both of them sat on a leather-bound chair, facing each other. There were two tea cups as well as a sheet of letter of collaboration set on the table. Odell briefly stated his options and e
