Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 228

Chapter 228 Isabel took the envelope and ran away to open it. Liam glanced toward the door and sat down on the sofa. 

The two little ones‘ mutterings soon sounded. 

Isabel said, “Liam, what did Baddie give us? I can‘t understand it.” Liam said, “It‘s a land deed.” “What‘s a land deed?” 

“It’s a house. Dad gave us each a house.”

Just as they were murmuring to each other, Sylvia walked in from outside. She wore a sweater with a hat on her head. There was no makeup on her clean and fair face, but her bright smile and delicate features were more brilliant than the sun outside. Odell narrowed his eyes. Isabel and Liam, who were discussing inside the house, also saw her. Their large eyes froze for a moment. 

. 

Then, Isabel immediately scurried toward her like a little rabbit. “Mommy! Happy New Year!” She excitedly ran up to Sylvia who picked her up. Although Liam was not as excited as Isabel, his lips also curled up. He walked up to her and said, “Happy New Year, Mommy.“.. Sylvia put Isabel down and hugged him too. Then, she took out two bulging envelopes from behind her back. Isabel‘s eyes instantly lit up, and Liam pursed his lips into a smile. Sylvia bent down and pressed the envelopes into their hands. She stroked their heads and said with a smile, “Isabel, Liam, this is Mommy‘s gift to you. I hope that you‘ll be happy and joyful every day.” “Thank you, Mommy!” Isabel puckered her lips and kissed her on the cheek. Liam went up and kissed her other cheek. Then, the little miser Isabel dragged Liam to the side to open the envelope. Sylvia went to the living room and immediately saw the man sitting on the sofa. He wore a casual black shirt and held a teacup in his hand, drinking tea.

When she looked over, he also glanced toward her. His gaze was as cold and indifferent as usual.
