Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife

Chapter 14

Chapter 14

At the Carters’, a black vehicle stopped outside the gate. Before the driver could step out of the car and open the door for the passengers, Liam pushed the door open and hopped out by himself.

He trotted inside with an icy look on his face. He was not going to wait for Odell. The look in Odell’s eyes darkened at the sight of this. Tara stepped out of the car with him and held his arm affectionately, “Odell, Liam is still a child and doesn’t understand that you’re doing this for him. He will understand when he grows up.”

Odell’s expression eased slightly as he turned to her. “I’m staying here tonight to be with the kid. Get the driver to send you home.”

There was a brief moment when Tara let her sadness show. “Alright, I guess it’s inconvenient for me to go in. Say hi to Grandma for me.”

She said this with a gentle, understanding smile.

Odell took her into his arms and gently kissed her forehead. He promised her, “Tara, Grandma will approve of our marriage one day. I know it.”

Tara rested her heavy head in his arms and answered softly, “I trust you, Odell.”

Odell held her for a while longer before letting her go. After she got into the car, he strode into the Carters’ residence.

As Tara sat in the car and looked out of the window at the Carters’, a venomous look surfaced in her eyes.

‘Damned old woman, hurry up and die already!’

After the old relic died, she would marry into the family and become the true matriarch of the Carters!

When Odell entered the yard, he saw two chefs working attentively at a barbecue grill. There was already a variety of cooked meat on the rack.

There were many other servants nearby as well, but there was no sign of Liam.

Liam had mentioned that he was going to go to Isabel’s for a barbecue tonight, so Odell had made similar arrangements at home.
