Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1975

Chapter 1975

Liam coughed dryly. "Nothing.

He approached the bed and gently ruffled her hair. "Sleep.”

Upon realizing that he was about to leave, Caprice grabbed his wrist. She looked at him and pleaded softly, 'Liam, I want to sleep with you tonight."

Liam stuttered for a moment as he looked into her eyes.

It was a sincere request. All Caprice wanted to do was to spend the night in his arms.

"No,” he refused firmly.

Caprice wrinkled her nose, feeling wounded.

Liam took a breath and spoke in a soft, patient voice, "Caprice, we cant sleep together just yet.’

"Then, when can we sleep together?" Caprice asked in a confused voice.

They were already dating, so what was wrong with that?

Liam pursed his lips. "Just wait until we get engaged."

Since Caprice's father had not agreed to their getting engaged, that meant he had not approved of their relationship yet. With that knowledge, he could not allow himself to lay a finger on Caprice.

"Okay," Caprice muttered weakly without concealing the disappointment in her voice, then she let go of his wrist.

’Go to bed. I'll see you tomorrow." He ruffled her hair again.

Caprice looked at him sadly. "Goodnight, Liam."

He responded with a soft smile before heading out, carefully closing the door behind him as he left.

Caprice sighed softly.

Wait till they get engaged.

After Liam came out of Caprice's bedroom, he walked toward the end of the corridor until he reached Isabel's room.

He knocked on the door twice. There was no response.

He knocked again.

Soon, he heard Isabel cry out in an annoyed voice, "Who is it?"

"Do you remember what they looked like?"

’I don't remember clearly, but I think you can get the surveillance footage from Mrs. Duwait." After Isabel brought this up, she asked in a puzzled voice, "Why are you asking me all this?"

"Don't worry about it. Go to bed." Liam turned and left without providing an apt explanation.

Isabel could sense that he was up to something. She told Liam, "Hey, Dad and Uncle John are going to make sure the Mansons get what they deserve anyway, so you don't have to worry about it. Just make sure Caprice is okay. Don’t worry about the rest."

Liam ignored her and continued marching toward his bedroom.

After closing the door, he reached for his phone and called his assistant, Mitch.

The call was connected promptly, and he ordered without bothering to greet Mitch, "Contact Mr. and Mrs. Duwait. Tell them we need the surveillance footage from tonight's dinner party."

Mitch answered dutifully, "Yes, sir. I will contact them right away."

Liam hung up without another word.

The lights in his bedroom were not turned on yet. The darkness in the room paled in comparison to the sullen darkness on his face. He was beyond furious. He wanted to see what exactly happened tonight and what these people had done to Caprice!

He swore to himself that he was not going to let any one of them get away with what they had done!
