Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 648

Chapter 648

A sharp silence took over the moment Sylvia disclosed these past events.

Sylvia assumed that Thomas was baffled by the tale and chuckled self-deprecatingly. “You think it’s absurd too, don’t you?”

He clenched his hand into a ball of fist underneath the table, but hung a faint smile on his lips. “It’s pretty incredible, I admit.” After a pause, he asked again, “Does that mean he realized that you were the one who saved him all along?”

“Yeah, Tara ended up returning the ring to him. It was sometime around when you took me to Lush Heaven with Isabel and Liam to visit him. After that, I paid him another visit and that’s when I accidentally saw the ring.” An awkward silence descended upon them again. She sensed that something was off and stole a look at him. His handsome expression seemed to beam underneath the ceiling lights. She could see her own reflection inside his hazel eyes. He spoke suddenly, “So, are you planning to go back to him?” This flustered her and invoked a sense of guilt that came out of nowhere. “I never even thought about that, Thomas.” He curled his lips into a faint smile. “We’re not officially together yet so you can go back to him if you want to.” “I won’t ever get back together with him again,” she declared firmly, “There was some misunderstanding between us, that’s true. But it doesn’t erase all the hurt he’s done to me in the past.”

The pain he caused her was not something that can be erased with mere explanations and the evidence of the sapphire ring.

A soft, endearing look returned to Thomas’s eyes. He suggested, “So does that mean we can begin dating officially?”

Something gleamed in Sylvia’s eyes, and she stammered for words, “I… I…”

“You haven’t made up your mind?” he asked. She avoided his gaze and grunted, “Hm.”

This was all too sudden so she was unprepared. “Is two days enough for you?”
