Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife Chapter 539

Chapter 539

Odell hugged Isabel who was sleeping soundly. Liam sat quietly beside him, just like he did on the way
here. The car followed the path down the lane. Out of the blue, Liam suddenly broke his silence. “Dad,
did you and Mommy get divorced?” Though his voice was that of a child’s, he spoke with an air of
composure uncommon in children.

Odell frowned and shot a look at him. “Who told you that?” “No one told me.” Liam lowered his head
and continued, “Two of our classmates have divorced parents as well. They don’t live together, just like
you and Mommy. They take turns bringing their kids out as well.”

Odell wore a grimace and fell silent. The atmosphere inside the car suddenly became unbearably
uncomfortable. After what seemed like forever, he finally answered, “Your mother and I got divorced,
but that doesn’t change the fact that we’re still your parents.” “Why?” Liam frowned and looked at him.
Odell replied, “Well, there are many reasons.”

It all came down to one thing in the end-he had wounded her too deeply to a point where he could not
even justify what he had done or forgive himself for it. If not for this conscience within him, he would
have never agreed to the divorce. Liam asked again, “Did you do something unforgivable?” Odell
muttered meekly, “Yeah.”

Liam looked out of the car window.

Odell lifted a hand and gently patted the little boy on his head. “This is between your mother and me.
You and your sister don’t have to worry about it.” However, Liam ignored him. Odell frowned. He
cleared his throat and asked cautiously, “Liam?” “Understood,” he spoke in a very reticent tone.

Odell quietly looked at Liam’s troubled demeanor and added, “If you want to live with me, just call me
and I will pick up both you and our sister, and you two can come to stay with me even if it’s just for a



short while.”

At the end of the day, the boy had grown up with his father and must miss him. Alas, as soon as Odell
proposed this option, Liam immediately answered insistently, “No, I want to live with Mommy and Sis.”

Odell was speechless.

Before long, the car stopped outside Sylvia’s house. The driver immediately got out of the car and
opened the door for them.

Liam stepped out immediately.

Isabel was still asleep when Odell carried her out of the car. She was sleeping very soundly and Odell
was careful to not wake her up. He carried her in his arms as he walked toward the door with Liam
beside him.

That was when Aunt Tonya heard their arrival and appeared. She smiled politely and beckoned.

“Master Carter, I’ll take Isabel,” she said with her arms put out toward Odell. Odell frowned and obliged.
Aunt Tonya hugged Isabel tightly and entered the living room as Liam followed her. Odell peered inside,
then he proceeded to leave without much fanfare.

Sylvia waited for the car to drive away before coming out. She put Isabel on the sofa and tucked her in
with a small blanket, then she pulled Liam to her side and gave him a big hug. “Liam, where did you
and Daddy go today?” Liam snuggled up to her and answered, “To the amusement park” “Did you have
fun?” “Yeah, it was fun.” There was hardly any excess emotion on his expression. Sylvia pursed her
lips and stopped pressing the matter. She switched to another topic instead. ” Are you hungry?” “A
little.”



“What do you want to eat? Mommy will make anything for you.” As Liam looked at his mother’s gentle
smile, something gleamed in his eyes, “I want to eat spaghetti.”

“Alright, coming up right away. Get some rest first for now.” “Okay.”

Sylvia gently ruffled his hair before getting up to cook while Liam sat next to Isabel and quietly peered
in the direction of the kitchen.
