Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

Chapter 719

Odell’s expression softened, but his voice remained cold.“ It’s okay. You didn’t do it intentionally, Ms. Springsteen. However, I’m not a good match for you. If Madam Springsteen asks about us again, you can just tell her that I’m not interested in women at the moment.”

For a few moments, Lily was at a loss for words but then she recovered and said, “Okay, I understand. I’m truly sorry about this incident.”

Odell did not say anything else and hung up the phone. He glanced at Isabel, who was still sleeping soundly, and the cold expression on his face eased.

Madam Springsteen had been sitting by Lily’s side throughout the call. Seeing that Lily had put away her phone, she asked, “Lily, how was it? What did Young Master Carter say? Did he believe you?”

“He most probably did, but the tone of his voice was not very nice so he must’ve been quite angry.”

“It’s okay. He’s angry at Ramona for going to his home and making that rude little girl cry, not you.”

She had a point there. Lily had already given an explanation and pushed the responsibility off herself. Odell would surely not be mad at her.

Besides, his two kids already knew that he and his ex wife had gotten a divorce. Her goal had been achieved.

Lily’s expression changed, but a smirk soon appeared on her face again.

Having received Odell’s warning , Ramona did not come back to look for the children for some time afterward.
