Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1828

Chapter 1828

Heather grew wide-eyed and speechless.

Caprice was the one he should be mad at! She was mingling with a bad lot and never had any serious goals, so what was there to like about her?

Shouldn’t Liam be upset about Caprice? Why was she the one who had to be on the receiving end of his fury?

Perhaps he did not like hearing her badmouth Caprice?

Either way, she had too much to lose. She could not lose her position in Carter Tech City.

There was a long line of people who would kill to be in her position. She was a prolific member of the Carter Tech City and was Liam’s right-hand man. No matter what, she could not let Liam slip away from her clutches. She was not leaving!

She blinked rapidly and contained her shock. She hung her head low, swallowed her pride, and apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean what I said, I won’t say anything like that again from now on.”

Underneath the harsh glow of the ceiling light, a terrific glare highlighted Liam’s expression which made him look more vicious than usual He held an iron stare

He barely acknowledged Heather after that. He proceeded to pick up the cup of coffee and took another sip from it.

Heather had worked with him for a few years and knew what his temper was like. It was not wise to overstay her welcome. She promptly excused herself from the office.

After the door closed with a thud, an overbearing silence loomed over the office.

After a while, Liam set down the cup again and gazed at the cityscape with a heavy gloom in his eyes.

He had grown up with Caprice, and no one other than her parents understood her better than he did.

He knew about Caprice’s roommates at Sparkrow University. During her freshman year, he had private investigators look into the background of every single one of them.

He even knew about how Caprice had been helping her two roommates by sourcing part-time gigs for them over the last two years.

As for Heather, the only reason he kept her around was that she was an effective worker.

Ding!

Suddenly, his phone rang.

He picked up his phone and saw messages from Sylvia.
