Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

Chapter 1422

Sherry felt a lump growing in her throat.

She was in no mood to get into a screaming match with John. Still, she voiced her frustration with him. “John, just say whatever is on your mind and stop being so weird about it.”

John smiled coyly. “I did go back there to find you, but that’s mostly because you’re the mother of my daughter. You can humiliate yourself all you want but it’s when it starts affecting my daughter’s reputation when it concerns me.”

Sherry felt something tightening in her chest, suffocating her.

Upon noticing her reaction, the smile John wore grew wider. “You asked me why I was asking about the nature of your relationship with those two men you speak of. Well, I was just wondering what the current state of your private life is like. If you’ve done something inappropriate with them, I believe you’d not be fit to become a mother and I’ll immediately have you kicked out of this city.”

He made a point of emphasizing the sentence ‘kicked out of this city’.

His tone was unfalteringly threatening.

Sherry felt like John had plunged a dagger into her heart as he said this. She gestured helplessly with her arms and said, “You don’t have to worry about that, I’m doing well enough on my own. Those two are the only good Samaritans who took the time to take me to the hospital. They left immediately after that.”

“Good.” John set the cup down and rose.

He was a head taller than her so the moment he rose to his feet, Sherry felt meek in his presence.

She quickly drew to the side, away from him.
