Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

A stiff silence hung over them.

Then, Isabel poked Odell's arm. "Dad, don't be angry."

Odell made a face and ignored her.

Isabel poked at Sylvia this time.

While Sylvia took a deep breath, she could relate to how Odell was feeling. Even now, she was rather upset about the things she read online, and what people were saying about her dear daughter.

"Isabel, your father and I have talked about this and decided that we are fine with you continuing your career as an actress, but only on the condition that you cannot keep hiding the fact that you are our daughter. If you are not okay with that, you’ll have to come home and take over the family businesses instead.” Sylvia’s tone was stout.

Isabel was slightly troubled to hear this.

Still, she understood that they were deeply bothered by what people were saying online about her.

After a while, she answered, “Alright, I understand.”

They sat in silence together for a while again until Liam, who was in the middle row, turned around and informed them, "Mom, Dad, I just got a text from the lawyer. He says that he just put up the official letter online.”
