Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 2004

Chapter 2004

There was hardly any traffic at this hour.

Before long, they were nearing Isabel's residence.

She sat by the window and looked outside, her mind wandering. At one point, she spotted a handsome and familiar figure walking down the street, illuminated by the faint glow of the streetlights.

"Slow down, Ben," she said to the driver.

The driver slowed down as he was told.

Isabel lowered the window to get a better look.

The young man was trotting down the street by himself, donned in a fitted suit. He stood tall and handsome, his stride steady.

On a night such as this, his melancholic figure looked like a prince that had been banished from his homeland and was wandering, looking for a place to belong. He exuded a fine charm around him that was entirely captivating and unique.

Isabel wondered if she had drunk a little more than she thought. She continued to lean out the window the longer she stared at the man until nearly her entire head was hanging out.

The car drew closer to the person.

Isabel recognized him.

"Roland?" she called out his name.

Hearing his name, the man turned around and looked at her.

When their eyes met, Isabel cried out in shock, "It is you! Why are you here?"

Roland remarked, "I just got off the bus."

Isabel leaned out the window with a puzzled expression." You don't drive?"

He was paid a more than respectable salary for his position and had a private driver assigned to him. Even if he did not want to buy a car, he could simply use the company car.

He explained briskly, "It's more convenient to take the bus."

Their place was just a short distance from the main office. Commuting by bus, one only needed to pass through a handful of stops.

However, waiting for the bus took time, and there was still a roughly five hundred meters walk to get to his place after being dropped off at the bus stop.

How could it not be more convenient to drive?

Isabel could not figure out the logic behind this choice, but since it was his choice to make, she figured to leave him be.

The car stopped beside Roland.

Isabel was still leaning outside the car window. She asked out of curiosity, "Working till late today, aren't you? Are things that busy at the office?"
