Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

Chapter 1178 After the housemaid left the room, Shannon turned to John, “I’m feeling much better now. Thank you fortaking the time to stay with me.

Why don't you get ready to settle in for the night? You have to work tomorrow, so we should get some early rest.” She uttered the word'we' with a hint of shyness.

John smiled tenderly, treating her gently as always.

He spoke softly, “You can go to sleep first.

I need to go to the office later to deal with some urgent matters that just came up.” 1 Shannon’s face changed.

However, before she could get a word out, John insisted," I’ll leave after you sleep.” He put a hand out and gently touched her forehead.

Shannon pursed his lips and nodded obediently , albeit with a touch of reluctance.

She took his hand into hers and closed her eyes.

John gazed at her silently, his eyes were two pools of still water without the slightest bit of ripple within them.

1 After some time had passed, Shannon's breathing took on a slow and steady rhythm.

Only then did he carefully withdraw his hand and rose from the bed.

Shortly after that, his dark and tall figure strode out of the room.

Shannon immediately opened her eyes after he left.

She quickly got out of bed and approached the window.
