Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife Chapter 838

Chapter 838

Something dark surfaced in his eyes. He darted a glance at Sylvia who was still sound asleep and then
he went outside.

Lily smiled politely when he stepped outside and greeted him courteously,“I heard that Miss Sylvia just
gave birth and I figured I’d come to take a look. How is she doing?”

“She’s doing fine,” Odell spoke with a shade of hostility.

Lily was very sharp and immediately sensed his vexation. She considered for a moment and asked, “I
think she’s only pregnant for half a year. How’s the baby doing?”

“The baby is doing

fine.”

“That’s good as she delivered only after half a year of pregnancy. I was wondering if some sort of
accident happened that led to such an early delivery.”

“Something along those lines did happen, but this isn’t considered an early delivery. She’s only half a
month away from the original expected date.”

Lily seemed rather shocked by this, evident by the look on her face. “I thought the last time we met her
she mentioned that she had not been pregnant for more than half a year?”

Odell completely ignored this statement and returned with a question of his own. “Were you the one
who hung up on her when she called yesterday afternoon?”

The look in his eyes was piercing.

Lily suddenly turned horridly pale. “…. I figured you were in a bad mood at the time and since you were
resting, I didn’t want you

to be disturbed, so I hung up for

you.”

“Then why did you delete the phone

record?”

Lily lowered her head and said apologetically,”I’m sorry, that was out of line.”

Odell looked at her sternly. “Miss Lily, it seems that I’ve been too cordial with you.”

Lily frowned and expressed unhappily,”What do you mean by this? Apart from this one minor incident,
I’ve done nothing else.”

“On the surface.” After a pause, he turned around and looked through the window on the door to see
Sylvia who was still sleeping on the bed. He made up his mind. “On the subject of our engagement, I
can help you talk to Master Springsteen if you don’t want to to clarify things with him. As for Madam
Springsteen, I think it’s better if you speak to her and ask her to stop troubling Sylvia in the future.”

The look in Lily’s eyes wavered. She began to grow anxious and asked, “Odell, are you going to forfeit
our marriage?”



“There’s never been a marriage to begin

with.”

“We got engaged in front of all our relatives and friends!”

Odell looked back at her with an ominous look in his eyes.

Lily was startled by this look and shrank into herself.

“Quiet, don’t you wake her up. If you do, I’ll make sure Master

Springsteen finds out about you coming to me to propose an engagement,” he spoke with zero
affection in his voice.

Lily became flustered and

upset.

She was panicking because of the way Odell looked at her with such hostility. She was upset because
from the beginning to the end, it was clear that he was on Sylvia’s side!

She was an unbecoming woman who came from a wholly insignificant background like she was
unworthy!



At least Sylvia was the renowned Mrs. Sunflower in the past but now, she was nothing but a worthless
castaway, kicked out of the Art Association and mocked by the masses!

Lily suppressed her boiling rage and asked with a smile,“What’s your plan now? Are you going to
remarry her because she claims that she needs you? Are you going to help your brother take care of
his child?”

Odell’s eyes gleamed icily. “The boy is mine. If you ever dare to say that in front of me again, I’ll make
sure that the Springsteen family will never see the light of day so long as I breathe!”

Lily drew a large step

back.

Her eyes were wide open with horror , and her face pale like a sheet of paper.

She observed his vicious expression that seemed like he

would not hesitate to destroy her right then and there and exclaimed,“ Master Carter, that’s absurd.
How could you say something like that?”

She covered her face in her hands and ran down the stairs.

Odell barely even spared a look at her. He pushed the door open and went back into the ward.



The ward was warm and tranquil as

always.

Sylvia was still sleeping soundly, but Odell observed that it did not seem like she was facing this side of
the bed when he went outside just now.

He suspected something and slowly drew closer to the bed and stared intently at her face.

Sylvia lay

motionless.

She must have not felt his presence in the room

because after a while, her eyes seemed to move underneath her eyelids and she gently, ever so slowly
pried her eyes open.

Only to immediately meet a pair of smiling eyes, devious and deeply amused.

Odell was staring right at

her.

She was caught red-handed and figured there was no need to pretend she was sleeping anymore.
