Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 630

Chapter 630

Odell’s voice was obviously much gentler compared to when Tara had just entered, so her nervousness immediately eased.

She thought about what had happened previously when she and Sylvia had been kidnapped and how he had chosen her between the two of them. It was a clear indicator that she still held an important place in his heart. Besides, it did not seem like he was going to punish her for what she had done to him in the past. Thus, she figured that he would probably not squabble over the rights to Lake Victoria Villa.

She took a deep breath and walked up to him, presenting the documents to him with bold hands.

Odell took them and briskly flipped through them. Most of the people who had come to visit him recently had all wanted something from him. Not a single person had come to express concern or to offer any help. He wondered what property Tara wanted to yield to him to help him out. That was when he flipped to the first page and the glaring words “Lake Victoria Villa” jumped out at him. His thick brows instantly furrowed into a frown, and the warmth in his eyes quickly evaporated. He remembered giving the property to her at one point. It was only that he had not sorted out the legal procedures of transferring it to her yet.

He read the following lines and immediately understood what this was about.

She was not here to offer him help by way of the Deed of Assignment. Just like every other person who had approached him in the past few days, she was here to seize the chance to claim Lake Victoria Villa for herself before he declared bankruptcy. She wanted him to give her the property and name her as the legal owner. His hand stiffened and he turned up to look at her. She crossed her arms in front of her body as if to protect herself from something. There was a sort of meek and tender look on her face. It was the same look as she had in the past whenever she promised Odell that she would stick by his side through thick and thin for the rest of her life.

However, now that he was about to go bankrupt, she had come to him not to offer him comfort or help, but to demand the rights to his property.

Odell suddenly remembered that rainy night from more than a decade ago.

He remembered the way she had disregarded her safety and helped him shake off the brutes who had been after his life. He also remembered how she had saved him and stayed the whole night with him.

Back to the present, it was as if this was a completely different person from ten years ago. He could no longer recognize her.
