Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife Chapter 268

Chapter 268

Sylvia was speechless for a while.

Annoyed, she argued, “You are also still awake.”

“I just finished my work.”

Sylvia pursed her lips as she did not want to know what he did. “Say something.” “Mm-hmm…”

“Go to sleep.” Just when Sylvia wanted to put her phone away, another text came in. “Reply.”

Sylvia gasped frustratedly and simply typed the same reply as before. The chat finally went quiet.

With the phone away, Sylvia rolled around her bed out of frustration but still could not doze

off. She rolled around for an hour or so until she finally fell asleep. When she opened her eyes again,
her room was already basking in the sunlight. Isabel and Liam were tiny balls of cotton jackets as they
sat on both sides of the bed, staring at her sleepy face.

Isabel threw herself into Sylvia’s arms. “Mommy, you’re awake!”

Her adorable voice was the best wake-up call. It even eased the lingering frustration she had from last
night. She sat herself up and hugged Liam in her arms.

“When did you guys come over?”

Isabel blurted, “Brother and I came over early in the morning.”

Sylvia had a glance at the watch. It was already 10 in the morning. She patted their heads and said
with a small voice, “Sorry, I overslept.”



“It’s okay. But you must sleep earlier next time and not stay up so late,” Isabel chided.

“Isabel is right,” Liam said. Looking at their puffy cheeks, Sylvia unconsciously wore a sweet smile. The
last bit of annoyance that suffocated her chest since last night faded instantly.

“Okay,” she said with a smile.

The two little rascals stayed at her house for the entire day, and she only sent them back to the Carters’
when it was almost dark.

She did not go in with them though. She simply watched the kids go in at the gate and left. She wished
she could stay a little longer with them, but she was afraid to run into Odell after what happened last
night.

To her surprise, before she even stepped out of the pathway, Odell’s sports car drove in.

Sylvia saw him through the windshield of the car and quickly averted her gaze. She feigned ignorance
and strode even faster.

Odell’s sports car screeched to a spot beside her. The window was wound down as he shot his sharp
gaze at her. “Sylvia.”

Sylvia ran. She dashed as if a wolf was chasing her. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared beyond the
entrance.

Odell frowned and his look turned frosty. He just wanted to talk, not eat her alive.

He pulled out his phone and called her. Sylvia was already at the entrance of her house when her
phone rang. She hesitated for a while before she reluctantly answered it.

The man’s deep and cold voice sounded. “Why did you run?” “What?”



“I said why did you run?” Sylvia feigned ignorance and said, “How did you know I ran? Did you see
me? I didn’t see you anywhere.” Odell was silenced. Sylvia seized the moment of silence and added, “If
there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now. I still have things to do.” “What? Are you going out again?” His
deep voice was screaming threats.
