Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife Chapter 1324

Chapter 1324

It was a quiet night, but Sylvia’s mind uncontrollably replayed the scene she saw at Odell’s office where
Shermaine had leaned against his body.

She did not want to dwell on the thought, but she could not help herself, even more so when he barely
came home recently due to work, and it was his secretary that accompanied him day and night.

Ding!

She suddenly received a text on her phone.

She picked it up, anticipating it to be the man, but it was actually a text from the teachers‘ group from th
e

academy. She had been home for more than an hour now, and the man did not even bother to text her.

Did he not bother to even explain himself anymore?

Her eyes became watery again, but she rubbed them dry before she tossed her phone to the side and
buried herself

under the sheets.

At Carter Tower, the man had rested his eyes for quite some time after Sylvia left. After he got enough r
est, he returned to his desk and continued his work.

Shermaine was outside the door, peeking into the office. A while later, she came in with another
glass of water.



Odell glanced at her. “You can go home. I have no use for you at the moment.”

Shermaine pursed her lips into a forced smile. “Sir, I have nothing to do at home either, so
why not let me stay here? I can help you if you need anything at all.”

L

Odell‘s eyes were glued to the document in his hand and did not reply. His frosty expression veiled his t
rue emotions.

Shermaine assumed that he heard her and tacitly
approved of her staying. Her eyes gleamed as she returned to her own workstation.

Then, she texted Ruth.

“Aunt Ruth, Sylvia came again tonight, but Master Carter told her off because of me!”

The reply came instantly. “Really?”

“Of course!”

“Hoho? What did you do? I want stories.”

Shermaine explained how she purposely spilled the water on Odell and seized the chance
to fall onto him all while being witnessed by Sylvia.

She smiled and continued texting, “I didn‘t expect her to come in
at such perfect timing and that Master Carter would scold her because of me. It seems like he‘s getting
fed up of that woman.”



Ruth replied, “You‘re right,
but I think it‘s better for you to be careful. Try not to use your little tricks anymore, and avoid having any
body contact with him.”

Shermaine frowned and disagreed with
the suggestion.” Aunt Ruth, why not? I believe Master Carter has developed feelings for me. He even t
old me to go home and get some rest. You should know how cold he is to

others, but he cares about me.”

Ruth went silent for a while before replying, “Sher, I just think he
didn’t see through your little trick of spilling water on him. That’s why he defended you. Besides, he’s be
en busy lately and must be overwhelmed with work.

Not only did Sylvia not console him, but she even

suspected him of having an affair with you, which fueled his annoyance. That’s why he told her off.”

Shermaine got annoyed by the distrust, and she

grumbled, “You’re in another country, and you didn’t see

it happening. What do you know?”

Nevertheless, she texted back, “Aunt Ruth, so do you.



think Master Carter doesn’t have feelings for me? If not,

then why did he defend me? Sylvia wanted him to fire me

on the spot though.”

Ruth replied almost instantly, “It’s not that. You’re

young and beautiful, and you’re his type. If he has no

feelings for you, he wouldn’t have defended you in front

of Sylvia.”

Shermaine’s cold expression turned warm after the text.

Several seconds later, she received another text from Ruth. “I just want you to be more careful. Before O
man.”
