Master Odell’s Secret Ex-Wife

Chapter 2044

Isabel certainly took her time.

It was not so much that she wanted to keep Martha waiting, but there were countless marks on her neck left behind from the activity last night. She scrambled for a way to cover them, but all the clothes she had were no good for the task, so she ended up wrapping a scarf around her neck.

Upon seeing Isabel come out of the room at last, Martha quickly brought her a bowl of soup as well as a healthy portion of food.

She motioned with a smile. "Isabel, you must be starving. Have a seat and dig in.”

Isabel smiled awkwardly. "Aunt Martha, where's Roland?"

"Roland went to work." Martha glanced at the silk scarf tied around her neck and remarked, "He didn't mean to leave you behind. He's been waiting for you to wake up since this morning. Then, he received several phone calls from work and had no choice but to leave to attend to something important."

Isabel wanted to find a hole in the ground to bury herself in. She was not blaming Roland for leaving her; she was only curious about where he went to.

That aside, what was more important was that Martha seemed to know what the two of them had got up to last night.

She had slept with him at his place. How embarrassing!
