Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife
Chapter 169

Chapter 169 In order to prevent his stepmother from finding out that his weakness was Tara, he had to maintain a good relationship with Sylvia as husband and wife. He could only hide the fact that Tara was his girlfriend, and they even had to pretend to be unfamiliar when they met.

He knew that she suffered a lot in those years.

In an instant, his expression eased up. He raised his hands to wrap around her and said, “I won't let you suffer like that again.”

Tara was secretly relieved when she saw his expression, but she continued to sob. “I know, but I'm just scared. I think that Sylvia has changed a lot. I'm really afraid that she'll steal you away:

Odell pursed his lips.

That woman had indeed gained a lot of skills, but...

a

He thought of the turtle she carved, and he thought of her figure leaving without looking back after he said that she could see the children. His eyes darkened slightly.

He said, “Don’t worry, she doesn’t have those thoughts about me anymore.”

“Really?”

m

"Yeah."

Tara immediately lowered her head again and said with a sobbing voice, “I was wrong, Odell. I won't do something this stupid again.”

Odell was silent for a moment and asked her, “Does the matter of the Rosses and the Ledgers suddenly wanting Sylvia to marry Michael have anything to do with you?”

Tara's eyes flashed, but she soon lifted her face and looked at him with eyes red from crying.” No. I just wanted to set her up with Tristan. How could I possibly want her to marry someone like Michael?”

“In that case, good.” Odell's face softened as he patted her back. “Let's eat.” Tara was instantly relieved when she saw that he was no longer suspicious and angry. At the same time, she could not help but curse at Sylvia for being ab*tch. It must have been Sylvia who asked Alister to tell Odell what she instructed her to do!

Sylvia ate her dinner and arrived at the old Carter residence before 7:30 p.m.

Odell should have instructed the guards to allow her in, but they refused to let her in no matter what she said.

However, before long, Madam Carter came out with her crutches, huffing angrily.

The two little ones seemed to hear the commotion and followed Madam Carter closely.

Through the fence, they saw Sylvia and ran to the door, grabbing the fence with their little hands. Isabel opened her mouth and shouted, “Mommy! Mommy!” Liam also stared intently at Sylvia. Madam Carter barked at the guards, “Open the gates now!"

The guard was troubled. “Madam, Master Carter ordered that Ms. Ross mustn't be allowed in until 8 p.m.” Madam Carter said angrily, “This is my house, not his. If you don’t open the gates, you don't have to come back to work tomorrow!” No one understood how worn out she had been by the little ones in the past two days.

They were either crying and screaming to see their mother, asking her to take them to their mother, or even asking her to kick Odell out of the house. Furthermore, she only learned today from her old friend that Sylvia was Sunflower. She absolutely loved Sunflowers works. If Odell continued to stop Sylvia from meeting the children, Madam Carter would really kick him out of the house

The two bodyguards were in a difficult position. They could not offend Madam Carter, but they did not dare to offend Master Carter either.

The two children were right in front of her eyes. Sylvia was so anxious that she said, “Odell will probably be back late. Just let me in now. As long as you don't say anything, he won't know either.” Madam Carter knocked the cane in her hand and shouted at them again. “Open the gates!”

The two guards sighed and quickly opened the gates. In an instant, Isabel and Liam scurried to her like little rabbits that had broken from their cage.
