Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 189

Chapter 189 The living room was empty with Madam Carter and the two kids nowhere to be seen. He walked further into the house, all the way to the door of the children‘s bedroom. It was completely quiet inside. 

After a moment of hesitation, he pressed down on the door handle and pushed the door open. 

Liam was reading a comic book while seated at the head of the bed whereas Isabel was dressed in a panda onesie, sleeping soundly in Liam‘s arms. Besides them, there was nobody else in the room. At this time, Liam looked at Odell. He asked, “Daddy, is something wrong?” Odell pursed his lips before replying with a question of his own, “What did you both do after coming home from school today?” Liam replied, “We ate, got on a phone call with Mommy, and now we‘re reading and sleeping.” A phone call? Odell then said, “Why didn‘t your mother come and keep you both company today?” “Mommy went to participate in an event.” Odell‘s eyes shifted inexplicably. No wonder she did not show up today. However, what event needed her participation at night? Suddenly, Liam said, “Daddy, I want to continue reading. If there‘s nothing else you want to talk about, please leave.”. Odell furrowed his eyebrows, his eyes turning cold. “Don‘t stay up too late.” With that, he left the room. 

Liam frowned and looked toward the door in confusion for a long moment. Then, he went back to reading his comic book. 

Back in his own bedroom, Odell‘s eyebrows were knitted tightly together, a displeased look evident on his face. 

At this moment, his phone rang. 

It was Tara calling. Odell calmed himself down before answering the call. Tara‘s gentle voice quickly asked, “Odell, have you gotten off work?” “Hmm.” 

Tara continued, “Odell, I miss you.” She sounded unhappy. 

Odell asked, “Did something happen to you there?” “Nothing big, but I met Sylvia Ross today.” Odell‘s gaze changed. “Sylvia? She‘s in Glanchester City?” “Yeah, President Dendro invited her.” Tara sighed and continued, “As soon as she arrived, everyone rushed to gather around her. Even my students no longer wanted to discuss their work with me.”
