Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife
Chapter 84

Chapter 84

After Tristan left, a middle-aged woman in a glamorous dress came in.

There was a reception at the entrance and she was actually ushered in by the receptionist.

Then, the receptionist said to Sylvia, “Sylvi, someone is here for you.”

Sylvia turned around. When she saw the woman looking for her, she was stunned. She had seen thewoman before. It was Tristan’s mother, Catherine.

Out of respect, Sylvia put her work down and smiled at the woman. “Mrs. Ross, hi.” Catherine smiled inresponse, but there was a hint of contempt. She sized Sylvia up from top to bottom and said, “I havesomething to talk to you about. Can you take some time off in the afternoon for me?”

“Yes, of course.”

**Then, i’ll wait for you at Elysian House.”

“Okay.”

Catherine did not linger and left after delivering her message.

Sylvia also went back to work

At lunch, Sylvia arrived at Elysian House punctually. Catherine had booked the balcony seat on thesecond floor.

There was only one balcony seat in Elysian House. There was a VIP room on the left, and the spaciousbalcony equipped with a grandiose view of the city was to its right.

When Sylvia arrived, she saw Catherine sitting gracefully on the balcony.

Sylvia smiled politely.

Catherine returned the same but with less enthusiasm. She said in a condescending tone, ” Come Sit.”

Sylvia frowned but did as she was told and sat opposite her.

Catherine was in no rush jump to the topic. She had a glance at the spacious panorama and then asked,“This is quite near to your studio, right? Do you come here often for lunch?

Sylvia had been here before but with Odell and Tara,

“This is my first,” she said.

Surprised, Catherine asked, “Really? Tristan has never brought you here before?” Sylvia barely reacted.“Tristan and I are strictly employer and employee. I usually have lunch with my colleagues.”

Catherine frowned. Sylvia was obviously hinting that there was nothing between her and

Tristan. However, if there really was nothing, why would Tristan want to call off the engagement withSonia?

Catherine believed that Sylvia must be acting. She regained her graceful demeanor and asked,” Then,what do you think of this place?” “This is great.”

“It is. This is the place where people like you can barely come even if you saved up your entire life.”

Sylvia puckered her lips. “Mrs. Ross, you can just be straightforward with me. You don’t need to hint atsomething just to insult me.”

Her candor froze the look on Catherine’s face.

Catherine radiated iciness as she said, “I want you to leave my son as far as possible.”

“I’ve said it. Tristan and I are just employer and employee, nothing else.” “You don’t need to lie. I knowwhat girls like you are thinking.” Catherine scoffed. She then took a piece of cheque from her bag andpushed it across to Sylvia. Sylvia had a glance. It was a six-million-dollar cheque. That was quite a hugeamount to her.

Catherine looked at her with contempt. “Take the money and leave Westchester.”

However, Sylvia softly bit her lip. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Ross, I cannot leave Westchester.” Catherine reactedcoldly, “Are you still trying to cling to Tristan?”
