Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

Chapter 1975

Chapter 1975 Liam coughed dryly. "Nothing. He approached the bed and gently ruffled her hair. "Sleep.”

Upon realizing that he was about to leave, Caprice grabbed his wrist. She looked at him and pleaded softly, ‘Liam, | want to sleep with you tonight."

Liam stuttered for a moment as he looked into her eyes.

It was a sincere request. All Caprice wanted to do was to spend the night in his arms.

“No,” he refused firmly.

Caprice wrinkled her nose, feeling wounded.

Liam took a breath and spoke in a soft, patient voice, "Caprice, we cant sleep together just yet.’ "Then, when can we sleep together?" Caprice asked in a confused voice.

They were already dating, so what was wrong with that?

Liam pursed his lips. "Just wait until we get engaged.”

Since Caprice's father had not agreed to their getting engaged, that meant he had not approved of their relationship yet. With that knowledge, he could not allow himself to lay a finger on Caprice.

"Okay," Caprice muttered weakly without concealing the disappointment in her voice, then she let go of his wrist. ’Go to bed. I'll see you tomorrow." He ruffled her hair again.

Caprice looked at him sadly. "Goodnight, Liam."

He responded with a soft smile before heading out, carefully closing the door behind him as he left.

Caprice sighed softly.

Wait till they get engaged.

After Liam came out of Caprice's bedroom, he walked toward the end of the corridor until he reached Isabel's room. He knocked on the door twice. There was no response.

He knocked again.

Soon, he heard Isabel cry out in an annoyed voice, "Who is it?"

He said solemnly, "It’s me."

After a while, Isabel opened the door, wrapped in a coat.

She was very cross since she had just managed to fall asleep. "I just fell asleep! What do you need from me? Aren't you supposed to be with Caprice right now anyway?"

"What happened to you and Caprice at the dinner party tonight?’ Liam asked without skipping a beat. Isabel seemed surprised. "Hasn't Caprice told you?" "She didn't want to talk about it, so | didn’t press her."

“Hm. | think the entire thing traumatized her a little," she reflected with a sigh. After that, she relayed the events of the night to Liam. She talked

about how Heather and her mother plotted against Caprice and framed her for stealing Mrs. Duwait’s pink diamonds.

Liam's expression darkened immediately upon hearing the full story. His murderous scowl scared even Isabel. She recoiled away from him when she sensed his dark aura.

Liam remain silent for a few seconds, then he asked suddenly, "Who stepped on her back?" Isabel answered truthfully, ‘Weather has been provoking us all night. At one point, | couldn’t stand her arrogance anymore and

wanted to beat her up myself, but her friends backed her up and shoved me to the floor. After that, Caprice threw herself over me to protect me, and that’s when Heather and her friends began stepping on her with the tips of their high heels."

“Who are these friends of hers? Do you know them?” "No, | don't." "Do you remember what they looked like?"

’| don't remember clearly, but | think you can get the surveillance footage from Mrs. Duwait." After Isabel brought this up, she asked in a puzzled voice, "Why are you asking me all this?”

"Don't worry about it. Go to bed." Liam turned and left without providing an apt explanation.

Isabel could sense that he was up to something. She told Liam, "Hey, Dad and Uncle John are going to make sure the Mansons get what they deserve anyway, so you don't have to worry about it. Just make sure Caprice is okay. Don’t worry about the rest.”

Liam ignored her and continued marching toward his bedroom. After closing the door, he reached for his phone and called his assistant, Mitch.

The call was connected promptly, and he ordered without bothering to greet Mitch, "Contact Mr. and Mrs. Duwait. Tell them we need the surveillance footage from tonight's dinner party.”

Mitch answered dutifully, "Yes, sir. | will contact them right away.” Liam hung up without another word.

The lights in his bedroom were not turned on yet. The darkness in the room paled in comparison to the sullen darkness on his face. He was beyond furious. He wanted to see what exactly happened tonight and what these people had done to Caprice!

He swore to himself that he was not going to let any one of them get away with what they had done! Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
