Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1694

Chapter 1694

After a hot and steaming plate of rice was served in front of Caprice by her father, she thanked her father lovingly, “Thank you, Daddy.”

John smiled gently. “You’re welcome, Caprice.”

He picked up another plate and prepared to scoop Sylvia’s portion into it.

Sherry snatched the plate from him with an unruly frown and did it herself instead.

Then she sat down and ate without a word.

John fell silent for a moment, then he got himself a plate and joined them at the dining table.

Apart from the clatter of utensils, there was not so much as a whisper heard at the table.

After her portion, Caprice announced, “I want to drink some soup!”

John took a bowl and filled it to the brim for her.

Caprice smiled. “Thank you, Daddy.”

“You’re welcome.”

Caprice drank the soup and savored every drop.

John turned to Sherry and suggested, “It’s Saturday tomorrow and Caprice said she wants to go to the beach. Let’s take her to the beach together.”

Sherry held the spoon stiffly in her hand and turned down his invitation. “I have something very important to do tomorrow, you can go with Caprice.”

He squinted suspiciously. “What’s so important tomorrow?”

She scowled and looked at him pointedly. “Why do you have so many questions today?”

He smirked in his usual candid way. “Just making small talk, why are you so grumpy today? I noticed that you’re grumpier than usual today.”

This strung Sherry’s nerves.

Her temper was flaring up. She felt like she was going to lose control and pummel John like a rag doll.

She had to control herself because Caprice was here with them.

She took a deep breath and exerted a great deal of effort to control the pitch of her voice.” John, are you trying to test my patience? Do you want me to kick you out?”

As soon as she said this, Caprice spoke up and defended John, “Mommy, don’t kick Daddy out please.”

She lifted her head from the bowl of soup and pleaded.

Sherry took a breath and forced herself to smile, albeit unconvincingly. “Mommy is just kidding.”
