Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 316

Chapter 316

Sylvia noticed that something was wrong with Edmund but she still asked, “As long as I can be with my kids, I’ll do anything.” 

Edmund got up and looked at her. “Are you not afraid of Odell throwing you out just like how he did four years ago? He even slapped you sixty times because of Tara. Do you still want to sleep on the streets?” 

Sylvia’s eyes widened. “How did you know that?” 

A sudden realization came to her and she said, “Did Sherry tell you?” 

Edmund said, “I ran into her at Lush Heaven last night and I asked her about your past.” 

He had drunk a lot last night, and it was Harry and Lloyd who had gotten Sherry to come talk to him. He had asked Sherry about Sylvia and Odell’s past and Sherry had revealed a lot to him. Sylvia frowned. “I have my own career now, the same thing won’t happen again.” Edmund refused to give up just yet. “Are you not afraid that Odell will hurt you again because of someone like Tara?” 

Sylvia pursed her lips. 

Afraid? She had never been afraid but she too was uncertain if Odell would ever hurt her again because of Tara. 

Just as she was considering how she would answer, the door opened. 

“We don’t need an outsider poking his nose into our matters.” 

The man’s cold voice sounded, followed by his towering figure as he came in. He grabbed Sylvia’s wrist and pulled her up from her seat. Before Sylvia could react, she was already in his arms. 

At the same time, he glared at Edmund frostily. “If you have the time to worry about my wife, why don’t you spend more time worrying about the new business that you’ve developed with your brother?” 

Edmund’s face turned cold as he smiled sardonically and said, “Odell Carter, do you think I’m afraid of you?” Odell grinned back. “You might not be but the men who follow you around with their families might think differently.” 

The spacious room plunged into silence for a while and tensions started to rise. 

With Odell’s arms tightly encircled around her, Sylvia could not help but say, “Odell, let’s go.” 

She simply did not want Odell to make Edmund his target just because of her. 

Odell looked down at her. 

His deep gaze felt frosty and unpredictable. 

Sylvia’s gaze shrank back slightly. Just when she thought that she did not know what else to do, Odell suddenly smiled and softly said, “Okay.”
