Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1516

Chapter 1516

Sherry scrambled for a response. When she turned around, John was staring at her intently with a gentle glow in his eyes.

She felt a well of uncertain emotions and ended up telling him, “I know, I won’t just let myself get pushed around.”

She did not need him to look out for her.

John suddenly grew morose and said, “Alright, good to know. Take Caprice back to your room. We’ll see if something good happens tomorrow.”

Something good tomorrow?

“What do you mean by that?” Sherry’s curiosity was piqued.

John made a strange look.

As if to say: Wouldn’t you like to know?

Sherry made a look, then she swung around and went back to her room with Caprice.

John chuckled to himself and went to his room as well.

The first thing Sherry did was to help Caprice settle in for the night. With Aunt Wanda’s help, they helped Caprice wash up and changed her into a set of clean pajamas.

Then, she took Caprice to bed.

Caprice fell asleep again the moment her head landed against the pillow. Meanwhile, Sherry went to the shower, it was her turn to clean herself up.

After she came out of the shower, she changed into a set of pajamas and dried her hair before she returned to the bedroom.

She stepped out of the shower to meet John lying lazily on her bed in a set of pajamas. He lay next to Caprice and held a book in hand.

He looked very cozy lying on the bed and acted as if it was his bed.

Sherry frowned disapprovingly and asked, “Who said you could come in here? Get out of bed and go back to your room. I want to sleep.”

John merely peered at her. “Sherry, this is my house. I can sleep wherever I want. If you’re not happy with me being here, the door is right there.”

Sherry nearly went blank with rage. She could not parry with a counter–argument although this room was rightfully hers.

“Either I sleep with you and Caprice here, or else I’ll take Caprice back to my room while you stay here.” John smiled coyly. “The choice is yours.”

Sherry took a deep breath and walked to the other edge of the bed. She climbed in without a word and gently lay down next to Caprice.

The room was engulfed in silence.

John set the book aside and gestured for her to approach. “First, you need to come over here.”

He had already tricked her once back in the car, so it was not going to happen again! She was not to be taken advantage of!

John smiled, took off his glasses, and set them on the nightstand. Then, he flicked a switch to turn off the lights in the room.

The room immediately descended into a thick sheet of darkness.

Sherry could hear the soft ruffle of the bedsheets when John lay against the bed and after that, remote

silence.

Surely he would not try anything weird, right?

If he was going to do something, he would have done it sometime during the last two nights when she was asleep.

She told herself to stop worrying. Before long, she had drifted off to sleep.

Unbeknownst to her, the man laying on the other side of the bed was staring at the ceiling, his eyes wide open without the slightest hint of sleep within them. He seemed slightly flustered as if there was something deeply bothering him.

At one point, Sherry woke up naturally, it was already daytime.

She realized that she was the only one left in the room.
