Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife

Chapter 290 Even after waiting a while, Cliff did not receive any reply, so he consciously turned to leave. “Hold on.” 

Cliff froze. He turned around and asked, “Yes, sir? Is there anything else?” 

Odell turned his chair around to Cliff and asked, “I have a friend who is divorced. His ex–wife used to love him a lot. So much so, that she even went to the extent of using dirty means to make the marriage between them happen. Now, this friend of mine wants to marry his ex wife again, but the ex–wife has said that she no longer loves him. Do you think what she said is true?” 

Feeling awkward, Cliff pursed his lips and thought, ‘You‘re referring to yourself, right?‘ 

However, he dared not expose his boss. After considering his thoughts carefully, he said, ” Maybe it‘s because the ex–wife was deeply hurt during the divorce that she has no more feelings for him.” 

The office plunged into silence after he voiced his opinion. Cliff noticed the grim look on his boss‘ face. He anxiously explained, “Sir, I‘m just making a speculation. I’m not saying that you... your friend hurt his ex–wife.” 

Odell narrowed his eyes and said emphatically, “She used to be a vile woman. Her ex–husband never hurt her without a reason. As for the divorce, it was only because she asked for it herself.” 

Hurt her? If she had not pushed Tara down the stairs, causing Tara to miscarry and be unable to bear a child anymore for the rest of her life, he would not have been angry enough to divorce her. 

She had even been slapped sixty tịmes because she had been vicious enough to slap Tara first.
