Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife Chapter 821

Chapter 821

The hazy mist of cigarette smoke was dispersed by the wind.

However, the hazy, gloomy look on his face failed to be deterred by the wind.

Cliff came to stand several meters behind Odell and whispered,” Sir, Miss Lily is gone. I don’t think she
will come back to bother you today.”

After waiting for a while without receiving a response, Cliff added,”Our guys just told me that Miss
Sylvia just had breakfast. She then put up some decorations around the house before sitting back on
the sofa and has been watching television since. It doesn’t seem like she has any plans to go out so
far. Also, Sebastian just called to ask if you were going to leave the hospital today. He says that the
young master and the young miss are already at home waiting for you to head home for the New
Year’s celebration. Would you… Would you like me to sort out the procedures for you to be

discharged?”

Perhaps due to the cold wind blowing in from outside, he shivered involuntarily when he finished
speaking.

Odell was still standing like an unmoving totem next to the window. His wounded hand hung limply by
his side as he held a’ cigarette with the other hand.

A dark, oppressive aura seemed to emanate from his body, which seemed to be even colder than the
wind outside. Cliff even began to feel like he was suffocating.

After not receiving a reply from Odell for a long time, he slowly withdrew from the room.

The day passed in the blink of



an eye.

Sylvia had just finished dinner when she got a call from Isabel.

The little girl immediately chattered on, asking her if she had eaten anything along with all sorts of
random questions.

Sylvia answered each of her questions, except that she left out the detail that she had only eaten a
bowl of noodles the entire day. Then, she asked Isabel how she and her brother were doing.

The little girl suddenly grumpily muttered,“It’s just me and brother eating at home tonight.”

Sylvia seemed mildly surprised by this,”Did your father not come home yet?”

Wasn’t it mostly just his hand that was injured ? Shouldn’t he have come home by now?

Isabel informed,“Uncle Sebastian says that the baddie is still in the hospital and that he’s not coming
back yet.”

Sylvia frowned. Were his injuries more serious than she thought?

Suddenly, Isabel shouted out,”It must be an excuse! He must have gone on a date with Aunt Lily! I see
this all the time on TV shows. Couples in love have to

spend the New Year together, especially since they are already engaged.”

Sylvia pursed her lips and mentioned ,“Maybe, but I’m sure he

will come back to spend time with you and your brother tomorrow.”

“Hmph, let him spend time with his new girl, we can’t be bothered to see him.”



She huffed as she spoke, clearly feeling very unhappy.

Sylvia smiled and tried to console her,“Be a good girl, Isabel. The way your dad cares about you and
your brother is different from the way he cares about Aunt Lily…”

It took a long while to console the disgruntled little girl.

Then, Sylvia chatted a short while with Liam before finally wrapping up the call.

Silence fell upon the living room

again.

She stared at the time on her phone and

zoned out.

Before long, she fell asleep without

realizing it.

She slept until around midnight when the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky above suddenly tore
through the silence.

Sylvia’s eyes snapped open

immediately.

She picked up her phone and removed Thomas’ contact from the blacklist.

She promptly wrote a message and sent it to him: “It’s the New Year now, can you let Aunt Tonya come
back now?”



Before coming back, the two of them had made an agreement that if she managed to hold out alone in
Westchester until the New Year, he would fulfill his end of the deal and allow Aunt

Tonya to return.

He must have known about Odell’s engagement with Lily, and that was why he had intentionally sent
Sylvia back to Westchester on the day of their engagement.

Even though there had been some hiccups along the way, Sylvia had persisted until now.

After sending the text, she clenched her phone tightly and stared intently at the display.

About a minute later, her phone notification rang like a bell. Thomas replied to her and told her: “Okay.”

Her eyes glowed up, and a brilliant smile immediately appeared on her face.

He said

yes!

Aunt Tonya was coming back! With Aunt Tonya back, all of them along with the children would be
reunited in Westchester and never have to be separated again!

With this in mind, she picked up the phone again and began typing a new text. She wanted to ask him
when he would be sending Aunt Tonya back to Westchester. It was then that the lights in the living
room suddenly went out,

plunging her surroundings in complete darkness.

Sylvia jumped from the sudden blackout, but then she noticed lights coming from the yard.



She noticed that the door leading to the living room had been thrown open, letting in wisps of cold air
from the outside.

That was when she noticed a tall, dark, figure standing by the door of the living room.

The ominous figure was leaning against the wall with his arms folded across his chest. His eyes
seemed to gleam

from within the darkness as they were fixed upon her.

It was an eerie sight that made her shudder. “Who… who are you?” she asked in a quivering voice.
