Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 162

Chapter 161 

He finished the call not long after and reached out to Sylvia. “This way, Ms. Ross.”. 

Sylvia followed him to the elevator. The elevator went straight up to the top floor. Cliff sent her to the door of the large office and left after pushing open the door. 

Inside the spacious office, Odell was sitting on the leather chair behind the desk. He wore a black dress shirt that hugged his broad shoulders and his narrow waist. The color of his shirt also made his originally indifferent disposition much colder, so much so that people did not dare to approach him. 

When Sylvia looked at him, his deep gaze was already locked on her. 

She continued to wheel herself in without changing her expression. She stopped at his desk and asked, “Why did you meet Alister? Did she tell you about the things that Tara ordered her to do?” 

Odell looked at her in silence for a moment before asking, “Why do you want to see me?” 

Odell pursed his lips and simply looked at her. He did not respond even after a long time. 

Sylvia ran out of patience and said, “Alister should have told you that she was instructed by Tara, and what I told you before is also true. The relationship between Tristan and me isn’t the kind that you think it is. I didn’t make him go on a hunger strike against his parents, and I didn’t do anything underhanded.” 

Her face was pure, and her gaze was clear and honest. 

Odell remembered how she looked yesterday afternoon at the awards ceremony. She was also as confident as she was now when she was posing for pictures with others on stage. When he remained silent, she continued, “Although my assets aren’t as extravagant as yours, they’re enough for me to live a good life. I don’t need to rely on men to obtain anything at all.” 

Odell thought of the small villa she was currently renting. He previously thought that Tristan paid the rent for her. Back then, she had angrily told him that she rented it herself, but he had not believed her. 

After that, she repeatedly said that she had no relationship with Tristan, but he did not believe her either. 

Then, she beat Tara up, was caught by him, and left with Tristan. 

After that, she should have gone to Alister, but something suddenly happened to Aunt Tonya. The Ledgers and the Rosses forced her to marry Michael, so she did not have time to bring Alister to him. 

Then, he watched coldly as she was humiliated, trying to make her understand that Tristan was not a good person for her at all. 

In the end, she turned up at the art competition awards ceremony as Sunflower, inadvertently giving everyone including him a tight slap on the face. However, if she had just told him that she was Sunflower when he suspected that Tristan paid her rent, all these misunderstandings would have been avoided!
