Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1644

The sudden hug surprised Sylvia and left her frozen.

The man’s warm breath caressed the back of her neck and his deep and rich voice entered her ears. “What were you doing outside just now?”

Sylvia’s eyes flickered nervously. She said, “N-nothing. I can’t sleep, so I went out to get some air.”

“Can’t sleep?”

“Mm-hmm…” Sylvia confidently hummed a reply.

At the next moment, she was pulled into the man’s arms. His staggering huge figure got on top of her and he lifted her chin softly. He pressed his lips against hers.

Sylvia was silenced. She tried to push him away, but he deftly pulled her hands to the side and pinned her down.

He kissed her for a while before he released her lips, but his body remained on top of her. His deep eyes were like a wolf searching for its prey in the dark. He grinned and said in his deep voice, “I can’t sleep either. Why don’t we do a little exercise?”

Sylvia’s face blushed. She knew exactly what ‘exercise’ meant.

She sighed exasperatedly and said, “I couldn’t sleep just now, but I’m starting to feel sleepy… Mmmhh!”

He silenced her with a kiss before she could finish.

Back at Coastrock City’s seaside hospital, Sherry sat by the window with her phone, scrolling through social media with a blank state of mind. She had been sleeping since the day, so even though it was already late at night, she was still wide awake.

Ding!

Suddenly, she received a text on her phone.

It was from Sylvia.

She tapped on it and saw an entire paragraph typed out by her friend, and when she went through it, her expression changed multiple times.

Sherry took a deep breath, but she was still trying to wrap her head around the situation. The revelation of the truth was too sudden, so sudden that it felt surreal.

She pinched her waist and it felt painful. She was not dreaming.

She continued reading and saw another text from Sylvia.

A while later, she smiled and scoffed.

It was great that Madam Stockton had recovered, but it was impossible for her to go back to John now.

Even if it was all Julie’s plan, it did not deny John’s distrust in her, and she could not forget the year-long imprisonment.

If Carl did not save her in time, she might already be dead because of Julie’s plan and John’s distrust.

The things that he did to her nine years ago continued to traumatize her, and it had become an obstacle that she could not overcome.
