Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

What was worse was that she had the guts to flirt with Tristan! How very vile! Sonia could not swallow her anger and tried to deliver another blow to Sylvia’s face. This time, Sylvia ducked to the side, so Sonia’s hand smashed against the hard surface of a wooden pillar.

She immediately cried out in pain, “You! I’m going to slap the crap out of you no matter what!”

Blinded with rage, she threw herself at Sylvia.

That was when Tristan suddenly charged in from outside. He quickly stepped in between the two of them and helped fend off Sonia.

Sonia was startled by this display. She immediately cried for justice, “Tristan, look what Sylvia just did to me!”

Tristan frowned and looked at her with a vengeful glare. “Do you think I’m blind?”

Besides, there were many witnesses in the studio. It was clear as day that it was Sonia who tried to fight Sylvia unprovoked.

Sonia’s expression shifted and she began to pout defensively. “She’s such a disgraceful woman for trying to flirt with you, so I had to come here and teach her a lesson.”

“She didn’t try to flirt with me.” Tristan announced solemnly before adding, “Also, just to clarify things, there’s nothing going on between me and you either.”

The marriage was just something that their parents had brought up in passing. There was no mention of any engagement, and the two of them had never even gone out on a date.

Therefore, it was a stretch to say they were in a relationship.

As soon as he said that, Sonia broke out in tears.

She grabbed Tristan by his sleeve and whimpered meekly, “Tristan, did you get yourself seduced by her? She’s the spoiled woman that even Odell didn’t want, and she even has children! My father banished her from my family. You deserve someone better than a dirty woman like her!”

Tristan’s expression became menacing and cold upon hearing this. “Sonia, she’s your sister no matter how you want to put it. Do you think it’s right for you to humiliate her like this?” He stood like a knight defending Sylvia’s honor and rebuked her, “Go home. We don’t welcome you here.”

Sonia cried weakly and glared at Sylvia with a hateful look before she fled the scene with her hand over her mouth.

A wave of silence swept over the studio. Tristan swiped a glance across the studio. “Get back to work.” Everyone returned to their workstations.

Tristan then turned to look at Sylvia who was standing erect, but she had a shellshocked look. It was as if she had been plunged into another world of ice. Every pore on her body was stung by a harsh coldness.

Tristan called out to her, “Sylvia?” The look in her eyes shifted. She turned to him with a dazed look and muttered, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. I’m sure you have more important things to attend to.” Tristan frowned. “Sorry, I shouldn’t have let her in. Don’t be sad, alright? I’ll take care of things.”

Sylvia muttered a weak “okay” before returning to her chair. She was not in the mood to talk to him.

Sensing this, Tristan proceeded to leave. Shortly after he left, Betty and several other members of the studio who were close with Sylvia came to her.

“Sylvia, are you all right?”

Sylvia curled her lips with a strained smile. “I’m fine.”

Betty asked with a tint of anger, “Was that woman just now your sister? How could she say such things about you?”

The corners of Sylvia’s lips twitched when she heard this. This was certainly not the first time she heard such wicked insults from Sonia. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Sylvia could trace back her earliest memory and name every instance when Sonia had taken advantage of the doting affection of their parents reserved for her to bully Sylvia.

Fortunately, Sylvia spent many years with her grandparents where she was sheltered from these injustices. It was after her grandparents passed away that she had to return home and was subjected to the endless torment of Sonia and her stepmother for several years again.

At the time, she still had a shred of affection for their father and her family, which was the ultimate reason she let them have their way with her.

She no longer felt that way now.

Three years ago, when Odell kicked her out of the Carters’ household, she had to return to her family again.

She was welcomed by the collective ridicule of her stepmother and her equally hostile stepsister, along with a harsh rebuke from her father who had told her, “You have disgraced our family name and soured the relationship between our family and the Carters. You’re the reason that our company finances are plummeting. From this day on, you are disowned from our family. Get out of my face.”
