Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 75
As far as she could remember, she had not done anything to make him mad recently.
âWhat is this about, Odell?â
He stared at her and said, âI heard from Isabel and Liam that you are moving?â
Sylvia was surprised. âHow did they find out?â
She was only going to tell them after she moved.
Odell scoffed. âYou were the one who tell them, didnât you?â
Sylvia was confused. âWhy would I tell them that Iâm moving?â
They were kids, and moving was supposed to be an adult problem, so why would she tell them?
Odell squinted. âYou really didnât tell them?â Sylvia stared right back into his eyes and confidently said,
âOf course not.â He tightened his lips and the expression on his face turned cold. Even the air around
him fell colder than usual.
Sylvia had goosebumps from his stare. She then asked, âOdell, can you not look at me like that? What is
it that you want to talk about?â
Odell finally moved his thin lips. âAfter they knew you were moving, they threw a tantrum at me because
they want you to move in with them.â
He continued to stare at her.
Sylvia was first surprised before she frowned. She did not expect the two of them to want her to move in
with them.
Maybe Jacob, who helped her tidy up yesterday, told them that she was moving, and the two little rascals
did not want her to move far away, hence suggesting she move in with them.
Whatâs your opinion on this?â Odell asked her.
What opinion could she possibly have? She said, âItâs inappropriate. Weâve already got a divorce a long
time ago. No way weâll live under the same roof again. Iâll talk to them when I see them
She was calm throughout her explanation. She had no thoughts of moving in with the kids, let alone
living with him under the same roof.
Odell wore an even sourer look. âWhat if they insist? What are you going to do?â
âTâll talk to the
sides, Iâve already moved into a new house, so they will listen to me.â
The look on his face changed again
Sylvia was surprised by how last be changed his expressions. She then asked, âDid you get into an
argument with Tara?â
The only possible explanation for his odd behavior was that he tried to vent his grievance on her.
Otherwise, why would he look angrier than before?
Indeed, she had moved, but it had nothing to do with him.
Odell did not answer. Instead, lie asked, âWhereâs your new place?â
âItâs the newly developed mansion behind the Cartersâ mansion.â
âYou rented a mansion?â His faze remained keen.
Sylvia noclded.
âThe rent isnât cheap.â
âIt isnât.â
âWhere did you get the money for it?â âMy earnings.â
Earnings? Her monthly salary was too little to rent a mansion that expensive. A quick thought later, Odell
asked, âDid you use the money Isabel made from her endorsement and advertisement?â
Sylvia was irritated but remained calm. âNo, I earned the money myself.â
The money that Isabel earned was safely kept in the bank account. She did not even use a single
penny.
Odell scossed. âThen, the money must be from âTristan.â
Sylvia was speechless. She had said twice that she used her own money, but he chose to ignore every
single word. She inhaled deeply and then said, âOdell, Iâm using my own money.â
Odell did not care as he did not believe what she said.
Sylvia had repeated it three times now, and yet he still refused to believe her.
âIs there anything else? If not, Iâm leaving.â She still had to help Aunt Tonya clean up the place.
Odell picked up his cup of coffee for a sip.
Sylvia thought that was it, so she wanted to get up. âThereâs one more thing,â he said.
