Chapter 314 The air turned quiet.
Tara had dragged down her shirtâs collar to expose her bare shoulders. Her tearful face looked pitiful and inviting. A normal man would find it hard to resist this kind of seduction, but Odellâs face darkened immediately. Not only did Odell feel no desire or lust, but he also furrowed his brows in disgust. Then, he peeled her off his body and threw her on the couch. Tara rolled over in humiliation. She could not believe that the man did not take her bait. Most of the men would accept her invitation!
Rare devastation surged up her head, and Tara cried at him, âodell, you said youâd take care of me forever! You said youâd marry me!â
Odellâs brows frowned tightly. âI went back on my word. Iâll compensate you and take care of you as a family forever. Youâll never have to worry about money.â
After pausing for a second, he said harshly, âThis is the first and last time Iâll allow you to go overboard like this. If you do it again, I will not see you anymore.â Tara stiffened, and she pouted and looked at him obediently. Her tears flowed in silence.
Seeing her like this, Odell suddenly remembered their time together as teenagers. Guilt rose in his heart.
He said, âRest well. Look for my men if you need anything, and call me if you encounter any difficulties.â
Tara choked. âOkayâ¦â Odell did not stay any longer. Sylviaâs face when she left the City Hall was still printed in his mind. It was cold and pale, and she smiled without care. He needed to look for her quickly.
Right after he walked out the door, Tara got down from the couch and smashed everything she could in the living room.
Her eyes were red and sinister as she screamed, âSylvia, you b*tch! Youâre a b*tch! B*tch!â She had planned everything, but Odell still chose Sylvia in the end! She refused to give in! She was unwilling!
The black sports car sped through the road.
Suddenly, his phone rang, and Odell put the call on speaker.
Cliffâs voice sounded on the phone. âMaster Carter, Iâve gotten news from the men you sent to watch Edmund. Edmund went to the Old District this evening and passed by Ms. Rossâ place. He brought her to a seafood barbeque restaurantânearby Lush Heaven.â
Odellâs gaze turned chilly. âAre they still at the restaurant?â Cliff said softly, âYes.â
âSend me the address.â
âOkay.â
Nearby Lush Heaven, in a private room in the seafood barbeque restaurant, the dishes were being served one after another.
After Harry and Lloyd stuffed their stomachs full, they said to Edmund, âMr. Price, weâre done. We want to go to Lush Heaven for a few drinks.â Edmund threw them a credit card. âGo.â âAlright, thanks, Mr.
Price!â Harry took the card and went out with Lloyd while smiling.
