Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1298

Chapter 1298 A soft sigh later, he got up, tidied his collar, and walked out.

When he came out of the room, he saw Shermaine . She was waiting outside with the stack of documents, and when she saw him, she smiled. “Sir, here are the documents you requested. The dinner we’ve pre-ordered is ready downstairs. Are you having it here, or on the way back?”

Her smile rivaled that of a sunflower and even resembled Sylvia’s.

Sylvia sighed. “I’ll just go have a peek at him. I won’t disturb him.”
