Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

"How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked.

Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him.

"Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?”

What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation?

She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.”

Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?"

I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.”

"Then how did you get together? Was he the one pursuing a relationship with you or was it the other way around?”

Isabel chuckled. “I’ll have to thank you for that."
