Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife
Chapter 1853

Chapter 1853

While setting down the bowl of soup, she stared at the plate of grilled prawns on the opposite end of the table.

Five lucent pieces of grilled prawn, their charred skin appearing immeasurably crisp. She longed to bite into them.

She stared drunkenly at Liam.

When she turned to the table again, the plate of grilled prawns moved from its original spot and was now placed at her end of the table.

She looked surprised. “Liam, why are you giving them to me?”

Liam remarked, “I don't like oily food.”

She refuted, “But they're not oily.”

“Just throw them away if you're not eating them,” he said disinterestedly.

Caprice hurriedly snatched the plate while smiling greedily. “I'll eat them, I'll eat them.”

Liam took one look at her, then he continued eating.

Caprice gobbled up all five pieces of grilled prawn in no time. Then, she moved on to finishing the remaining vegetable and soup, feeling completely bloated by the end. She set aside the utensils. It was only then that she noticed Liam had finished eating long ago and was seated upright, staring at her.

She volunteered, “Liam, why don't you get some rest? I'll clean

up.”

“No, someone else will clean this up,” he said as he rose from his seat. “Come with me.”

Caprice got up and obediently followed him into the living room.

They crossed an opening in between the glass panel adjacent to the living room and entered a hallway. Soon, they stepped into a large bedroom.

There was a dedicated dressing room and bathroom connected to the bedroom.

A large bed dominated the center of the bedroom, the minimalistic gray-colored bedding complimenting the ambiance of the room.

Was this Liam's bedroom?

Caprice’s eyes gleamed when the thought came to her.

“You will sleep here tonight,” Liam announced.

"How about you?” she asked hastily.

“I'm sleeping in the next room.”

"Oh, okay.”

He cast a fleeting glance at her.

Caprice quickly brushed away the look of disappointment in her eyes and asked gingerly, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“There are clean pajamas in the closet and a fresh set of toiletries in the bathroom.” He was a very attentive host.

She nodded. “Okay.”

"Don't stay up. Goodnight.”

“Goodnight.”

With that, he left and shut the door with a gentle thud.

She stretched lazily.

After that, she went into the bathroom.

There was only a single set of toiletries. It seemed like Heather had never lived here.

Still, it did not change the fact that she was Liam's girlfriend.

She let out an exhausted sigh before turning on the shower head and jumping into the shower. After the shower, she went to the dresser and found the fresh set of pajamas Liam mentioned.

The pajama pants were too large for her. They would slide down her waist the moment she put them on

“Oh, well," she figured. She was only going to sleep here for a night, so she could do without the pants. With that in mind, she crawled into bed wearing the top and her underwear.

There was a faint scent on the quilt that reminded her of Liam. She sniffed at it, then shut her eyes, feeling at ease.

Ding!

Suddenly, her phone rang.

She quickly sat up.

It was Freya calling. She hurriedly answered the call.

Freya's anxious voice immediately blared through the speakers, “Caprice, where have you been? Why aren't you home yet?”

Caprice apologized frantically, “I'm sorry, Frey, I forgot to text you. Something happened, so I won't be coming home tonight.”

“What happened? Are you okay?"

Since they were close friends, Caprice saw no need to keep secrets from her. She relayed the events of the night to her, starting from her arrival at Elysian House with Jonathan, then to the harassment by President Michael. Then, she spoke about how they chased her down before Liam showed up and saved her.
