Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife Chapter 521

Chapter 521

It was a tug-of-war competition between all the participating families. Since there were exactly six
groups of families at the scene, it would be played out in an elimination format. Each family would draw
lots to see who they would be matched up against, and the winners of each matchup would advance to
the next round. This meant it would be a best-of-six, then a best-of-three before moving onto the grand
final.

The winners would get a mermaid doll. The mermaid dolls were being displayed on a table. Each doll
had been delicately made, depicting a chubby and adorable little mermaid. Most of the fathers in the
participating families were large and burly men. Sylvia had been separated from Odell while
accompanying Isabel and Liam as they went around the area.

This meant it was just the three of them at the moment.

There was a chance they would not even get past the first round Since Isabel was very eager about the
competition, Sylvia did not want to ruin the occasion for her, so she let her go ahead and draw a lot.

The lucky number they got was six.

They were matched up against a family of four, which consisted of a large and stocky father, along with
the mother and two plump boys.

When the two plump boys saw that their opponents were Isabel and Liam, they chuckled at the sight of
the two little pipsqueaks, as if they had already won the round before it even began. Isabel scoffed and
made a face, “You better watch out, we’re not afraid of you!”

At this point, the two plump boys were laughing so hard that they had practically doubled over from
laughter. Even their parents began snickering when they saw the comical scene of the tiny Isabel



taunting them. Sylvia grimaced quietly. Liam wore the same look as his mother. There was no way to
back down unless they were to give up entirely. Sylvia stood behind Isabel and Liam and picked up the
rope with them. Their opponents, a family of four, also picked up the rope.

Seeing how obviously outmatched they were, the father of the family gave a wry smile and said, “Miss,
let me apologize beforehand.”

Sylvia felt something catch in her throat but kept quiet. Shortly after, the referee stood at the middle
point and announced, “Begin!” Sylvia immediately yanked the rope with all the strength in her.

However, their opponents were significantly stronger than them. Even though she had already exerted
all her strength, they were still being tugged towards the other direction. Forget about offense, they
could hardly play on the defense.

Just when it looked like their feet were about to cross the middle point, the rope suddenly jerked from
behind and stopped. Sylvia felt a powerful pull on their side, the sheer force of this pull was so
overwhelming that within seconds, they had gained ground over the other team again. Sylvia was
bewildered. Moments after that, she heard the low, masculine voice of Odell from behind her, “Don’t
zone out, just pull.” Sylvia suppressed the restless feeling in her chest and tugged as hard as she
could. In no time, they managed to pull the rope all the way back. The two boys on the opposite team
lost their balance and tumbled onto the ground, losing control of the rope. The referee raised a hand
and announced ceremoniously, “Congratulations, you are the winners.”

“Yay!” Isabel jumped for joy and stuck her tongue out at the two fat boys who had made fun of her.

Sylvia smiled and turned to Odell.

He was standing behind her, staring at her quietly. Sylvia was perplexed and asked, “Why are you
here?” He answered coolly, “You’d have lost if I hadn’t come.” Sylvia’s lips pursed Odell raised his hand



and patted her head, “Come on, it’s time for the next round.”

Seeing as he had been the main contributor to their victory, Sylvia knew better than to get upset about
him patting her head and answered with a brisk “Sure”.

The family they were matched against in the second round was also a family of four, only this time the
entire family looked like they were all into fitness and gym, which was evident by their fit and muscular
build. One of the kids was nearly as tall as Sylvia.

The parents almost fell in love with Isabel and Liam at first sight, their eyes glowed up when they saw
how adorable they were.

The mother said to Isabel, “What a lovely girl, I don’t have the heart to defeat you guys!”

Isabel immediately turned her nose at her and boasted, “Hmph, we won’t know who wins or loses
before the game starts. You guys better be careful, we won’t go easy on you!”
