Chapter 1379


    Odell curled his lips. ‘I was wrong for raising my voice at you, but | didn''t do it for her. | never meant to defend her. At that time, she was no different in my eyes f


    rom the other employees who work hard.”


    “Hmph. When she framed Charles, you stood by her persistently andpletely ignored my exnation. I''m your wife,


    but you didn''t stand by me at all in front of so many people!”


    Sylvia got angry at the thought of that scene. She crossed her arms across her chest and looked at him huffily. Her appearance was quite cute


    Odell looked at her and exined slowly, “First of all, Shermaine and Charles are not rted. | couldn''t find any reason for


    Shermaine to frame Charles at that time. Besides, she was my secretary. Between Charles and her, of course, I''d favor her.


    “Moreover, before the incident between Shermaine and


    Charles happened , | was waiting for you to reply to my message, but you never did. You also unconditionally helped the colleague who was interested in you


    I was also very angry at that time.”


    There were times when his anger got the better of him and he lost his rationality.


    Sylvia asked, “You said Charles is interested in me? What nonsense are you talking about?”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    Odell raised his chin slightly. His tone was immediately more self-confident than before. “He said it


    himself. He only went to talk to Shermaine because he saw that she looked like you.”


    Sylvia frowned. “He did it because he saw that Shermaine looked pretty.”


    “There were many beautiful women present. Why did he talk to Shermaine, the person who looked like you, instead of anyone el


    se?”


    Sylvia was a little annoyed. “Stop speaking nonsense. We''re just normal colleagues.”


    Odell‘s expression did not change. “He''s interested in you.”


    Sylvia held back her anger. “Stop being unreasonable .”


    He raised his brows. “Say that again.”


    “Stop being unreasonable !” She red at him and said angrily, “I can say it a hundred more times. What are you going to


    do about it?”


    “| can''t do anything about it.” He smiled seemingly helplessly. “It''s because you''re my wife.”


    Sylvia choked up, and she could not help but look at him. “Even if you have a point, the fact is that Shermaine


    framed Charles. | also saw her bump into you. She must have done it


    on purpose.” Odell pursed his lips. Looking back at it now, Charles had most likely been framed by Shermaine. That night


    when she bumped into him was not an ident either.


    “Yeah.” His dark eyes looked at her. “I was wrong.”


    Sylvia‘s gaze flickered, and the depression piled up in her chest


    instantly disappeared. Her nose stung, and she said in a hoarse voice, “It''s good that you know.”


    Then, she picked up her fork, intending to eat some more.


    However, her hand was clutched by hisrge one. He looked at her and said softly, “The food is cold. | just ordered takeout. Eat it when it arrives soon.”


    “Okay.” Sylvia obediently put down the fork.


    Odell smiled. Looking at her like this, he soon could not help but take her into his arms. He made her sit on hisp and wrapped his arms around her.


    They had not met for a long time. Even though Sylvia was angry at him, she still missed him. She half-


    heartedly punched him a few times and then leaned into his arms, feeling thefortable body heat from his body. Just like


    that, she seemed to feel slightly better. Then, the hotel staff brought up the takeout that Odell ordered


    Odell ced her on the bed, got up, and went to the door to bring it in


    The packaging of the meal was very delicate , and Sylvia immediately saw the hotel logo on the bag. This restaurant was not listed on


    the takeout menu. He must have contacted the restaurant directly to order the food.


    After opening the container , the aroma wafted into the surroundings. It was fragrant and nutritious.
