Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 378

Chapter 378

Ramona asked, “Are you saying Ophelia is in a coma?” The doctor said with a sigh, “I’m afraid so.” 

After the doctor left, Madam Carter was discharged from the ER. Ramone had basically grown up together with Madam Carter, so seeing her closest family member laying on the sickbed unconscious, she broke down in tears beside her. 

“Ophelia, how did you fall down the hill? You’re not young anymore, why did you go climbing? What got into you? Are you going to lay unconscious until the end?” Odell stood beside his grand-aunt with tightly furrowed brows. His usual straight back seemed a little hunched. 

He seemed to have fallen into a slump and was shrouded with a gloomy presence. 

The unconscious old lady on the sickbed was his dearest family member. He was even closer to her than to his biological father. 

His mother had passed away when he was young and his father had left him alone after marrying his stepmother. Thus, it was his grandmother who had basically raised him. 

Now, his dearest and closest family member was lying unconscious before him and he could not do anything about it. 

He narrowed his eyes and shot a frosty glare at Sylvia. 

Sylvia’s legs turned weak. She bit her lips tightly as she tried to go up closer to have a look at Madam Carter. However, before she could get any closer, Ramona pushed her away. 

Ramona was strong and her agitated push sent Sylvia to the ground. 

Sylvia fell to the ground wretchedly. 

Tears rolled down Ramona’s cheeks as she screamed at Sylvia, “You! It’s all your fault! Why did you go climbing? Didn’t you know that Ophelia’s legs are weak?! If it wasn’t for you, she wouldn’t have fallen down the hill and knocked her head! Were you trying to kill her?!” 

Sylvia looked down in silence. Her eyes started to get teary. 

She might not be the culprit but if she had not been chatting with Edmund, or if she answered Madam Carter’s call and gone to her right away, Madam Carter would not have fallen. 

She sat on the ground and allowed Ramona to vent her anger on her. 

Only when the nurses pushed the sickbed away did Ramona stop scolding her and went after her dearest cousin, 

Sylvia had wanted to follow but when she tried to get on her feet, her eyes met a pair of deep eyes peering down at her. 

It was Odell. 

“Odell, 1-” 

Before she could finish, Odell said to the butler, “Sebastian, keep an eye on her. Don’t let her leave.” 

Sebastian failed to grasp the meaning of his order but due to the seriousness of the matter and the heavy look on Odell’s face, he nodded and hummed in reply. 

Odell then followed the nurses away. 

His towering figure soon disappeared beyond the corridor. 

Sylvia feebly got to her feet. A while later, several bodyguards came over and surrounded her. They had obviously been sent here by Odell.
