Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 505
Other than Edmundâs lackey, Tara was seeing three other men? Which made it four men at the same
time?
Odell asked, âWhen is this?â
Edmund pondered for a minute and said, âAround five years ago.â
Five years ago? Odellâs expression fell. Edmund narrowed his eyes and continued, âI canât just sit back
and watch my lackey being cheated on by some woman, so I told him, but he didnât believe me. I
convinced him to catch her in the act and I guess he got so angry when he caught Tara sleeping with
another man, so he beat the man to death.
âHeâs still behind bars now and Tara left with all his money. Not even a penny was left for him, or his
mother at home. My other lackeys and I wanted to teach her a lesson but she got lucky and found you,
so the entire thing was forced to a halt.â
The night breeze blew and whirred.
The man in the car showed the grimmest expression to veil his true emotions. Edmund saw the look on
his face. âMaster Carter, this might be a long time ago but if you want to, you should be able to dig
something out. My lackeyâs name is Joshua Hamba and heâs locked up in Westchester Prison. You can
ask your men to have a check.â
Edmund then left.
The black sports car remained parked on the spot for quite some time.
Sometime later, the manâs phone buzzed.
Odell put the phone next to his ears and asked, âDid you get it?â
Cliff reported what he found out.
âYes, sir. Thereâs a prisoner named Joshua Hamba in Westchester Prison and he was arrested five years
ago for accidental manslaughter. It was reported that his girlfriend cheated on him and he caught her in
the act. He got so angry that he beat the man to death on the spot.â
âWhoâs his girlfriend?â
Cliff inhaled deeply and said, âIâve sent one of our men to Joshuaâs mother to ask for the name and the
lady said the girlfriendâs name was Avery. Tara Avery.â
Odell pursed his lips tightly and coldly.
Cliff continued in a small voice, âSir, Joshuaâs mother kept his phone at home and our men checked it
and found the picture of him and his girlfriend. I saw it myself and itâs really Ms. Avery. Do you need toâ¦
see it for yourself?â
âItâs fine.â
Odell then hung up the phone and tossed it aside.
He leaned on the seat and shut his eyes with the grimmest look on his face.
Five years ago, he just regained control over his company and Sylvia got pregnant. He was happy.
Although he still thought of Tara back then and hated the things Sylvia did to marry him, he did not want
his feet on two boats. He thought that once the company had settled down, he would make up to Tara.
However, a few nights after he made up his mind, he slept with Tara. On the second day, Tara cried and
complained to him it was her first time. She even said he did not need to bear the responsibility and as
long as she could be with him, she would do anything.
He had nothing but guilt and it got more difficult to push her away. Sometime after that night, Tara got
pregnant.
He gave her the house at Lake Victoria and told her to rest there.
A few days later, Sylvia pushed her down the stairs. She had a miscarriage and could never be pregnant
again.
Sylvia never admitted that she pushed Tara down the stairs and even claimed that Tara fell down on her
own just to frame her. Not only did Tara accept the cruel fate, but she also defended Sylvia and pitied her
as a fellow pregnant mother. She said Sylvia was his legitimate wife, so she had to endure it no matter
what.
