Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 824

Chapter 824 

Meanwhile, inside the VIP room at Lush 

Heaven. 

It was very dimly lit and there was a strong scent of alcohol in the air. 

The sleeping man on the couch slowly opened his eyes. 

Lily who was sitting next to him sprang to attention and promptly put his phone back onto the table behind her. 

She put a smile on her face and greeted Odell,”Hey, you finally woke up?”

Odell’s head was throbbing with pain, he raised his hand and pressed it against his forehead, then he asked her, “Why are you here?” 

“A friend of mine told me that she saw you coming here last night, so I figured I’d just drop by to see you.” She stated unflinchingly. 

Odell sat up and checked the time on his 

watch. 

He frowned, then he got up and approached the table to pick his phone up. 

Lily mentioned ,“Just so you know, the young miss called you two times today. I didn’t answer the first time and figured I’d tell you when you wake up. Since you continued to sleep, I ended up helping you answer the second time she called. I told her and the young master that they did not need to worry about you.” 

Odell shot her a 

look. 

Lily observed his expression and apologized in a low voice,”I’m sorry for taking liberties with your privacy like that. You’re not angry at me, are you?” 

“No, thanks for answering the call 

for me.” 

If not, the children would be worried sick about him considering he had not been home for a day, especially since it was the New Year. 

Something glimmered inside Lily’s eyes as she rose and walked outside with him. 

“In that case, would you mind if I pushed my luck and asked you why you came here to drink last night?” She asked. 

“It’s none of your business.” 

His voice was raspy as he spoke in a cold and affectionless way.

Lily probed in a low voice,”Is it related to Miss Sylvia?” 

His footsteps suddenly came to a 

halt. 

Lily stopped as 

well. 

After a few seconds, he suddenly grunted, “Don’t ever mention her again.” 

“Not today, 

or…” 

“Not ever, don’t ever bring 

her up.” 

His voice was cold and 

gloomy. 

Something gleamed in her eyes,“I see, I understand.”

After a while, they walked out of Lush Heaven together and arrived at the parking lot. 

Noticing that Odell was about to enter his car, Lily hurriedly stepped in front of him and said with a quick smile, “Could I invite you to be a guest at my house tonight? There’s going to be a family dinner tonight and even if our engagement is not genuine, it’s still important to keep up appearances as an engaged couple. I’d like to bring you along. My grandparents would love to see you.” 

Odell fell silent for a moment, then he agreed, “Got it.” 

The sky was getting 

darker. 

A car was coasting down the 

highway. 

Isabel and Liam were seated together in the back row. 

The thought of getting to see her mother again excited

Isabel and she kept gazing at the view outside with her big, round eyes.
