Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 728

Chapter 728

Odell fell silent. “I remember.”

“I hope you could agree to be engaged with me.” Her beautiful eyes widened, staring hopefully at him. Odell pursed his lips, and his expression darkened.

Lily looked at his face and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t force you to marry me. I only want to make my grandfather feel better. After we are engaged, if you think I’m unsuitable to be your wife, I will find a way to talk to my grandfather and break off our engagement.”

Odell’s gaze eased as he glanced at her. “It will be a hindrance to your future and a waste of time.”

Lily’s lips curled into a smile, and she shrugged. “As long as Grandfather’s health improves, I don’t care.” Odell’s mouth tightened into a thin line as he kept quiet.“ I’ll give you a reply by tomorrow morning.” Lily’s eyes lit up. “Okay, then I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After that, she got up and walked out.

Odell leaned toward his chair and gloomily closed his eyes.

Two hours later, Cliff pushed open the door and came in.

Odell glanced at him. “Have you gotten any information?”

Cliff replied, “Yes. Master Springsteen has been in a terrible state these days. Since your scandal with Miss Springsteen, he scolded her and refused to accept any explanation. He declared that he would not meet Miss Springsteen if she didn’t give him a satisfactory answer. Yesterday afternoon , he shut himself in his room after waking up. He only lets in the servants that send him food and has even refused to see Madam Springsteen.”

Odell rubbed his temples and asked, “What time is it

now?”

Cliff looked at his expression and replied softly, “It’s half past five.”

Odell got up and walked out while saying, “Postpone the meeting tonight to tomorrow night.”

Cliff hurriedly replied, “Okay.”

Odell returned to his home within half an hour.

The two kids had just come home from school and were in the living room.
