Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1369

Chapter 1369 Shermaine was dumbstruck by the unannounced visit.” Why are you here?”

Ruth answered in an unserious voice, “Because I missed you and figured I‘d come to see you.”

Shermaine grimaced and needed several seconds to collect her thoughts. “Wait for me at the airport, I‘m coming right away.”

With that, she hung up.

She was already done with her work for the day.

She swiftly grabbed her purse and trotted out.

A colleague who was assigned near her desk swept a glance at her quickly departing figure and proceeded to pick up the phone to contact Cliff.

...

Half an hour later, Westchester International Airport.

Shermaine got out of the car and walked as fast as she could to one of the arrival gates.

It did not take long before she identified a woman who stood out from the rest of the crowd. This was a middle aged woman in a hat and sunglasses. Though plainly dressed, she exuded a fine air of elegance.

She waved and greeted her with a pleasant smile, “Aunt: Ruth!”

Ruth looked at her and responded with a quick smile. She dragged the luggage behind her as she gracefully advanced toward Shermaine.

Shermaine stood still, making sure to maintain a warm and polite smile to welcome her benefactor.

Ruth was only several steps away from Shermaine when she suddenly screeched to a halt. The faint smile hanging on the corner of her lips quickly faded. Even with sunglasses masking her eyes, Shermaine could notice her quickly stiffening expression.

Shermaine asked in a worried tone, “Aunt Ruth, is everything okay?”

Ruth stood frozen.

Shermaine was beginning to worry when she heard a familiar voice from behind her. “Madam, it‘s been a while.”

Shermaine spun around and was shocked to see Cliff only a couple of meters away from her.

Cliff was siniling slyly at Ruth.

Behind him stood a row of five bodyguards, all wearing identical black suits.

There was a black car seen parked in the distance.

The doors and windows were closed tightly but Shermaine could sense a hostile presence barricaded inside.
