Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1339

Chapter 1339 The problem was that he could not find the concentration to do anything at all, nor did he have the capacity to socialize with his peers. He would head to Sylvia‘s workshop on the third floor and stay there with no specific purpose in mind. Sometimes he would sit there for hours on end.

The only thing that preserved his sanity was thinking about how he would confront Sylvia when she finally returned home from her spontaneous getaway.

At last, he had bided his time until the day when Sylvia was appointed to return. He had come up with dozens of approaches to confronting Sylvia by this point.

It was only slightly past noon and he was already done with his work for the day and headed home.

Aunt Tonya and Sebastian were playing hide–and–seek with Flint.

Madam Carter was enjoying herself watching them play.

When Odell returned home, he saw all of them hanging around in the living room but there was no sight of Sylvia.

They were all rather astonished to see him returning home so much earlier than usual.

Flint stopped hiding and emerged from behind the couch.

He ran toward Odell and threw himself at him while crying out, “Daddy!”

Odell took Flint into his arms and went to the couch.

Flint asked in a perplexed voice, “Daddy, why did you come home so early today?”

Odell answered nonchalantly, “There‘s not much to do at work today.”

“Oh, I see.”

Aunt Tonya, Madam Carter, and Sebastian exchanged knowing looks behind Odell‘s back. It took a lot of effort for them to suppress their laughter and hold their silence.

They all knew that today was the day Sylvia was due to return.

Nobody knew what specific time she would arrive at Westchester.

For a while, nobody uttered a voice in the living room.

Flint eventually got bored sitting on Odell‘s lap. He hopped down from the couch and went to Aunt Tonya and Sebastian to get them to continue playing with him.

Odell sipped a cup of tea and absent–mindedly flipped a book while listening to Flint‘s joyful shrieks echoing across the living room.

Several hours later, the sun began to set. It was beginning to turn dark outside.

Odell peeked at his watch to see what time it was.

It was nearly evening already, where in the world was she?

That was when he heard a stampede of footsteps approaching the house.
