Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 2202

Chapter 2202

Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes.

When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed.

After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave.

Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel." Roland, Isabel, please have a seat."

Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say."

Isabel stayed silent.

A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I'm a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!"

Isabel frowned.

She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state to a show of regret and dejection, she reckoned he must have been an actor in another life.

She was briefly taken aback and pointed out. "If he was truly

against it, he wouldn’t have done it even if you tried to force him to."

Master Rockwell stared blankly into space, then he explained unconvincingly, "You must’ve had the wrong impression of him. I'm his father. The boy has always listened to me since he was a child. I know he cares a lot for you, but he wouldn't oppose me."

"Do you remember my father?" Roland interrupted him apathetically. "As far as I can remember, my father was loyal to you."

Master Rockwell’s face turned pale for a moment, he avoided Roland's gaze and stated, "Your father was my eldest son, of course, I remember him. It's a pity what happened to him-"

"It’s a pity that he had someone like you for a father. What a terrible car accident, wasn't it?"

Almost instantly, the temperature in the room shifted drastically. It was as if the seasons transitioned from fall to winter in a heartbeat.

Isabel was surprised by Roland’s bluntness.
