Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1206

Chapter 1206

The moment the clock struck ten, Sherry strutted off without a care in the world. She barely cared to turn back and look at John.

As soon as she stepped out into the courtyard, John stepped into the living room as well.

The lens of his glasses concealed his look underneath. His face was basked underneath the moonlight, and there was not a trace of emotion on his expression.

He continued heading into the courtyard.

That was when he suddenly felt a pair of arms wrapping around him from behind.

“John, are you leaving already?” It was Shannon. She asked him in a warm voice as she pressed herself against his back.

John frowned. He promptly removed her arms before he turned around to face her. He put a hand out and patted her head with a mechanical smile. “Yeah, there‘s something urgent I need to deal with, so I probably won‘t be back for a few days.”

Shannon frowned. “Are you going on a business trip

again?”

“Yeah.”

Shannon expressed sadly while her eyes slightly reddened. “John, it‘s been two months since we got married, and we have never slept together even once.”

“It‘s my fault for neglecting you. I‘ve been busy.” John brushed her cheeks and apologized softly, “When I come back, I will make it up to you.”

Shannon‘s eyes glowed up upon hearing this. She zipped her lips into a strained smile. “Alright, I‘ll wait for you to come back.”

“Alright.” He smiled, then withdrew his hand and turned to walk outside.

Shannon hurriedly followed after him. They walked out of the courtyard together, and she watched as he got into the car and drove off.

She stretched lazily and headed outside, planning to go for a walk to aid her digestion.

As soon as she walked out of Queenie’s courtyard, she saw Shannon heading into the shuttle bus. She seemed

rather anxious as if she was excitedly waiting to see someone.

Sherry eyed her suspiciously.

Shannon noticed Sherry staring at her as well. Something flickered in her eyes before she turned away immediately, so all that Sherry could see after that was her side profile.

Shortly after that, the shuttle bus revved its engine and drove off.

That was when Queenie‘s voice suddenly came from behind. “Sherry, what are you doing standing around here? The oranges in the North Garden are all ripening. I‘m going to go harvest them with Hailey. Are you coming or not?”

Sherry withdrew her gaze from Shannon and turned to Queenie. “I‘m coming.”
