Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife Chapter 281

Chapter 281

B*stard!

Just a while ago he had called her his woman but now in front of Tara, he had simply chased her off.

Sylvia strode out of the mansion and headed onto the street.

She wanted to go home and wash the filth away from her body. After she got into a taxi, she pulled her
phone out and called her kids as well as Aunt Tonya. She told them something unexpected had
happened that had prevented her from meeting them last night. After reassuring her kids and Aunt
Tonya, Sylvia saw the missed calls from Edmund and she called him back. The call got through quickly.
“Something happened last night and I switched off my phone. Is there anything urgent?” “Nothing. I just
wanted to have a chat with you.”

Edmund sounded normal but his voice was a little duller than usual. It seemed as if the man had been
up all night. Sylvia was not overly concerned. She said, “Did you want me to look at some paintings?”

“I supposed so. What are you doing now?” he asked. “I’m on my way home now. I’ll hang up the call
now if there’s nothing urgent.” “Okay.” Sylvia ended the call, leaned back against the seat and tiredly
closed her eyes. Little did she know that an off-roader had been following her taxi from the moment she
had come out of the old Carter Residence. The person behind the wheel was Edmund. He had a
cigarette in his mouth and his bloodshot eyes were glued to the taxi that Sylvia was in. Edmund
followed Sylvia until she arrived at the front of her house and got out. Only after she had entered the
gate did he park his off-roader further away.

Then, he lit himself another cigarette as he watched her walk inside.



Back at the old Carter Mansion, Odell calmed down after Sylvia had left. He looked at the crying Tara
and said in a deep voice, “Tara, it’s my fault.”

Tara threw herself into his arms. She hugged him tightly and cried, “Odell, I know you didn’t do it on
purpose. She must have seduced you. That must be why you slept with her.”

Odell frowned. Had Sylvia seduced him? As far as he had known, she had constantly avoided him.

Even after he had said that he liked her, Sylvia had not stopped running away from him.

Initially, he had thought that his interest in her was just ordinary. However, after not seeing her for two
days, he had gotten restless. All he had wanted to do was to go home and wait for her.

Last night, he had taken the initiative to call her and learned that she was drunk. He had then headed
to the restaurant as fast as he could.

Later, he had found out that not only was she drunk, but that someone had drugged her. He had then
brought her back to the old Carter Mansion. For some reason, his sanity had snapped, causing him to
lose control of himself and he had ended up having sex with her. He had no idea if he hated her or
loved her more, but he was certain that he liked being with her. In the few years that they were
separated, he had never had the same feelings for Tara. In fact, he even felt resentment whenever Tara
kissed him.

Other than that, he was glad that he had done what he had done.

He was glad that he had gone to Sylvia immediately after learning something was off, or she would
probably have ended up in some bad guy’s bed. After last night, he was certain that Sylvia had to
belong only to him and him alone.
