Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

Chapter 1967

Her husband was trying to get her out of the sticky situation and also give a satisfying explanation to John and Sherry, so that the two of them would forgive them.

Sophia bent over and knelt before John and Sherry. She cried and said, "Mr. and Mrs. Stockton, it’s my fault. | shouldn't have bribed her, | shouldn't have hurt your daughter. | was wrong."

John continued to pat Caprice's head without saying a word.

Sherry scoffed.

She knew the Masons were putting up a show to ask for forgiveness. She asked, "Why did you bribe Beverly to hurt Caprice?"

Sophie's eyes flickered nervously. "I-l saw Ms. Stockton and Ms. Ross hit Heather, so | was thinking of taking revenge. That's why | bribed Beverly."

"I'm the one who hit Heather, Caprice didn't even touch her," Isabel bellowed, "Mrs. Mason, if you want to take revenge, you should've gone after me but you went after Caprice instead. Why?"

‘Yeah! Why did she go after Ms. Stockton?" someone in the crowd asked. Sophia was silenced by the words stuck in her throat.

Heather realized the situation was going out of control, so she immediately said, "You hit me because of Caprice, that's why my mom went after her."

Isabel scoffed and said, "Heather, you remind me. You tried to hurt Caprice back at Carter Tech District. You trapped her at the entrance and let her be insulted. She almost got trampled. | still haven't slapped you forthat."

Heather's face turned pale.

Sherry bolted up and asked, "What did you say? She hurt Caprice at Carter Tech District as well?"

Isabel said, 'Yeah, Aunt Sherry. Liam and | were just in time or else she'd be hurt. Liam found out the truth and fired Heather." "Oh my goodness! Heather was fired? She claimed she resigned from Carter Tech District," someone else in the crowd said. Heather's expression turned pale. "No! No! | didn't get fired! | resigned voluntarily!"

Slap!

As soon as her voice subsided, Roman slapped her in the face.

The slap was so strong that it sent her to the ground.

Her cheek was instantly swollen.

Roman was infuriated. He pointed at his daughter and shouted, "How dare you lie to me? | used to be so proud of you but you turn out to be a vicious girl! | must teach you a lesson today!"

He lifted his foot for a kick.

Heather broke down in tears.

Sophia could not bear seeing her daughter get beaten by her own father, so she intervened to protect her. Roman's kick landed on Sophia instead.

The crowd was silenced by the instant violence.

Caprice might not like Heather, but she could not stand to see the father hit the daughter. She turned and buried her face in Sherry's shoulder.

Sherry then said, "Enough."

Mrs. Duwait signaled her workers to stop Roman.

The two workers went up to Roman and held him back.

Sophia took several painful hits and collapsed on the ground.

Heather continued to sob in silence.

The crowd just looked on.

Awhile later, John said, "Mrs. Duwait, losing a diamond isn't a prank. | believe you should call the police.” His tone sounded flat and he looked extra calm.

He had no intentions of letting this go or settling it privately.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Even after Heather and Sophia were beaten and scolded by Roman, John was not pleased.
