Chapter 99
“I’m here to see Odell Carter,” Sylvia announced
The receptionist was caught off guard when Sylvia mentioned Odell’s full name. He asked, “Do you have an appointment?”
“I’m his ex-wife Call him and tell liim I want to see him. If he doesn’t want to see me, l’ın not leaving”
The receptionist was surprised once again He quickly went behind the reception desk and made the necessary calls
Sylvia waited on the spot She had to get an answer today
11 Odell really called security on her, she would definitely fight them oft she was his ex-wife anyway, and she did not work in the same building If things went out of hand, it would only embarrass him, not her Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Two minutes later, the receptionist approached her with a smile “Miss, Assistant Bogard is coming down He will bring you up to Mr Carter” The cold look on Sylvia’s face softened a bit “Thank you.”
Soon, Cliff came out from the elevator “Mrs. Ms Ross This way please,” he said with a smile
Sylvia followed hiin into the elevator which took her straight to the top floor Cliff said, “Ms. Ross, Master Carter is in his office. You may just go in” “Thank you”
Sylvia walked out of the elevator and arrived at the spacious CEO’s office. She pushed the door open The bright lights from behind the door blinded her for a moment. The spacious office was well-lit. It was glamorous and organized. The boss was sitting in front of the windows, allowing the glorious sunshine to shed its brilliance on his elegant and straight physique Dressed in a black suit, he leaned in his chair with his legs crossed When Sylvia laid eyes on him, his deep gaze stared back She instinctively averted his
gaze, and some of her anger fizzled out, but for the sake of the kids, she strode up to him. “Odell, why are you keeping the kids from me?” Odell responded with a stern look. “You know what you’ve done.” “What I’ve done? What did I do? I didn’t step on your tail as far as I can remember, so why are you keeping the lods from rue?!” “Don’t pretend in front of me. The dirty things you do behind my back. I know everything.”
he said with distinct disgusi on his face. “I’ve been busy working and making meals for the lods. What kind of dirty things are you referring to?” she bellowed “Don’t you use that face with nje You ate for free for the past couple of days at my place, and I didn’t even give you use cold shoulder” Eat for free? Odell frowned irritatedly “I was there to pick up the kids.” Sylvia scoffed “Hmph. You enjoyed the food more than the lads did.” The look on his face turned surly, and it frightened Sylvia a little, causing her to faller A cold grunt later, he pulled oui his phone and tapped on a picture He turned his phone around and showed her the screen Sylvia saw the picture of Tristan carrying her at the studio She furrowed her brows and said, ” Who took this?”
Odell scoffed, “You’re hugging each other. Whal else can you say about this?” “It was Tristan who picked me up all of a sudden I couldn’t even-” “You couldn’t even react? Is that what you want to say?” Odell cut her off, wearing a scomful expression
Sylvia was forced to swallow the explanation She somehow forgot that he did not and would never believe her
He took her silence as acknowledgment He glared at her coldly and said, “Back then, you did a lot of things to gain the title of Mrs. Carter, including crawling into my bed. Now, you are doing the same ber ause you want to become Mrs. Ledger You even instigated Tristan to go on a hunger strike to resist his parents, forcing them to agree to you and him being together. I have to give it to you for your ruthless methods”
