Chapter 226
Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 226 In the early morning, sunlight was cast through the gap between the curtains. Sylvia
opened her eyes. Immediately, a headache rushed up to her head, and her mouth felt dry too. She sat
up and looked around in confusion.
âIsnât this my bedroom? How did I get here? I remember drinking too much last night and falling asleep
on the table. Did Sherry bring me back?â Just then, her phone rang. It was Sherry. Sylvia answered the
phone. Sherryâs anxious voice sounded. âSyl, where are you? Are you okay?â âIâm at home.â Sylvia
frowned and asked, âWasnât it you who sent me back last night?â âSomething happened to me last night.
I canât explain now, but anyway, I wasnât the one who sent you back. I heard one of my waiters say that
he answered your phone when your friend called, and it was your friend who came and took you away.
However, something happened along the way. It seems you were brought to Mr. Priceâs room. I heard
that it was your friend who went in and took you away. Someone saw that you were all tied up then.â
Sherry breathed a sigh of relief after she spoke. âI thought that friend of yours might have taken
advantage of you, but it seems they really sent you back.â Sylvia was stunned. âWhoâs Mr. Price?â She
did not remember anything.
â
âHis name is Edmund Price. Heâs a famous gangster in Westchester City. No one in the city dares to
mess with him,â Sherry said guiltily, âIâm sorry, Syl. I almost let something happen to you. I wonât let
something like this happen again.â âItâs okay. Iâm fine, so donât worry.â After chatting a little more, she
hung up the phone. Then, she immediately opened her call log. There was a call at 1 a.m. It was from
Odell, and the call had lasted a little over a minute.
She was already lying on the table at midnight, so she could not have answered the phone at 1 a.m.
.
âSo, the person who went to Lush Heaven and brought me back was Odell?â
She soon saw the unread messages on her social media platform.
There were many New Year greetings from the Art Association and other people she knew. However, the
most eyeâcatching one was the one from Odell. âWhat are you doing?â
It was sent ten minutes before he called her.
âHe probably called me because I didnât reply. But shouldnât he have been with Tara at that
time? Why did he send me a message?â
Sylvia looked at herself. She was still wearing yesterdayâs clothes, but there was a manâs tie tied around
her ankle. There was even a shoe on the bed.
Odell had clearly simply dumped her on the bed and left.
âNo matter what, he was the one who sent me back last night. If he hadnât appeared in time. I mightâve
been bullied by that man named Edmund.â
She sent him a message. âThank you for sending me back last night.â After sending it, she got up and
went to the bathroom. Her body still reeked of alcohol, and she needed a good wash.
After the shower, she came out and heard her phone ring.
It was Odell. She answered the call and asked curiously, âWhy are you calling me?â
âWhat are you doing?â His voice was cold and tinged with annoyance. Sylvia said, âI just finished
showering.â
