Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1329

Chapter 1329

‘Fine. I‘ll look for her when she‘s calmed down.

As he regained his cool composure, he got up and said, ” Inform the departments that we are bringing next week‘s weekly meeting ahead, and it will be in an hour at the main meeting room. Tell them to be prepared.”

“Yes, sir.”

Cliff nodded and went out. As soon as he stepped out of the office, he ran into Shermaine.

Shermaine went up to Cliff and asked in a small voice,” Assistant Bogard, what‘s wrong with Master Carter? I noticed the sour look on his face when he came up.”

Cliff said, “Something happened to his family.”

“His family? Is it because of Mrs. Carter?” Shermaine asked.

Cliff sighed. The anger on his face faded a little. “What happened after that? Did Master Carter explain the situation to Mrs. Carter?”

“Mrs. Carter was furious and didn‘t give Master Carter the chance to explain. She even questioned him if he was having an affair with me. In irritation, Master Carter shouted at her and sent her away.”

Cliff frowned again. “He really shouted at her?”

Cliff sighed. “No wonder Mrs. Carter is that angry.” It had been a few years since the two got back together, and Odell had never raised his voice at Sylvia. Now that he scolded her, she must think that Odell was protecting Shermaine, hence the short temper.
