Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife

Chapter 1609

It was only after she had wolfed down whatever leftover there was that one of the bodyguards approached her. “Stop eating, please go back inside.”

Sherry grabbed several more crumbs of rice before reluctantly shuffling back into the house.

She licked every single crumb of rice off of her finger, making sure not even a single one of them went to waste. She chewed them thoroughly and savored their taste.

At least she finally had something to fill her stomach with.

She drank two more cups of hot, boiling water before she slumped on the couch again, this time with a book to read.

She found the book in the study upstairs, this was her only way to pass time.

Now that she had taken care of her hunger, there was still the wound on her arm to worry about. It was itching badly and distracting her, she eventually threw the book aside, feeling greatly irritated.

She rolled around the couch, unable to find anything to alleviate her condition.

Her physical discomfort was the least of her concern as she could not stop thinking about Caprice. Furthermore, her mind replayed montages of her pulling Madam Stockton out of the burning car as well as when John had tried to strangle her that night.

She continued letting these thoughts hound her until at one point, she fell asleep. Around this point, one of the bodyguard’s phones rang.

It was John calling.

The bodyguard promptly answered the call and greeted John cordially, “Yes, Master Stockton.”
