Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1916

Chapter 1916

Meanwhile, Heather had just returned to her home in Westchester.

The hour was late.

She had a large coat thrown over her shoulders. The moment she got out of the car, she sneezed loudly.

The housemaid who came up to greet her quickly asked in a concerned voice, “Miss, are you okay? Did you catch a cold?”

Her mind instantly jogged to how Caprice had grabbed onto her so that the two of them would tumble into the pool together. The memory prickled her. She would not forget the sheer spite she felt when she scrambled out of the pool only to see that Liam had carried Caprice away.

She roared at the housemaid, “Scram!”

The housemaid recoiled in fright.

Heather strode into the house, stepping into the living room.

Inside the living room were her parents Roman and Sophia. They were still awake and drinking tea while chatting about ongoing affairs inside the company.

When they saw Heather enter wrapped in a coat and her hair still wet, they cast surprised looks at her.

“Heath, what happened to you?” Sophia quickly asked.

Roman chimed in, “How did you end up in this state? I thought you attended an event in Glanchester.”

Heather felt a bitter sting of resentment, feeling like she had been wronged. She sat between her parents and said darkly, “Someone pushed me into the pool.”

Roman’s face became contorted in anger.

Sophia was just as upset. She put her arms around Heather and asked, “Who was it who pushed you?”

This person must have a death wish pushing her beloved daughter into the pool!

Heather’s eyes gleamed with ice. She said with a snap in her voice, “Some idiot named Caprice. She’s known Liam since she was a kid and has a crush on him. She’s jealous about how close I was with Liam and kept trying to insult me every chance she got with snarky remarks.”

“I thought I was going to teach her a lesson tonight and throw her into the pool, but the stupid wench ended up dragging me into the pool with her! What’s even worse is that Liam ended up carrying her out of the pool and taking her away!”
