Chapter 1347
Fortunately, Odell did not hear their conversation. At that moment, his mind was completely sober without a trace
of intoxication.
He got back in the car and drove.
When the black sports car disappeared from the road, Shermaine, who had been hiding in the shadows for a long
time, came out. Looking at the direction in which his car left, she curled her mouth in a smile, her expression happy
and smug.
‘His stupid wife left home for so many days, but not only did he not compromise, he still believed in me
unwaveringly. How would he be so adamant in defending me if he wasn’t interested in me?‘
…
The weekend passed in the blink of an eye.
It was a new week.
In the early morning, Odell opened his eyes and looked at the quietness of the room. His eyes were cold and lonely.
He got up and washed up.
After eating breakfast with Madam Carter and the children, he watched Isabel and Liam get in the car to go to

to the office.
The company was still running in the same orderly manner as before. He went straight to the office, sat down at his
desk, turned on the computer, and started working.
Shermaine came in at some point and brought him the documents he needed to read that day as well as a cup of
tea to soothe his fatigue. He only pulled himself out of his work and looked at her after she called him several
times.
She smiled and said to him, “Master Carter, all the documents you want are here. You should also drink the tea
while it’s hot.”
Her eyes, hairstyle, and the way she dressed somewhat resemble Sylvia’s.
At first glance, he seemed to see Sylvia instead. He could not help but glance at her a few more times.
Then, he responded, “Got it.”
He flipped open the document and read it.
Shermaine sensibly walked out.
A few more days of such calm and peaceful times passed.
However, not only did Odell’s mood not become calm, he became more irritable instead.
That afternoon, a project went wrong because of the negligence of two senior executives, and the anger in his
body instantly exploded.
He called them directly to his office. He never liked to reprimand people loudly, so he simply made them stand next
to him. Then, he sat on a chair with his hands crossed and stared at them.
He stared for an hour.
The clothes of one of the senior executives were drenched
in sweat.
The other one shivered and could not help but say, “We know we were wrong, Master Carter. We won’t dare to be
negligent next time. Please punish or scold us if you want to, but can you not stare at us like that?” His voice
sounded like it was begging.
Odell narrowed his eyes.
Knock, knock!
A knock on the door suddenly sounded.

“Come in,” he said.
Shermaine pushed open the door and walked in, holding a cup of freshly brewed rose tea. She placed the tea on his
table and said to him with a bright smile, “Master Carter, have some tea to calm down.”
Odell picked up the teacup and took a sip, then glanced at the two executives. “Get out.”
The two quickly walked out and cast grateful looks at

Shermaine when they passed by her.
The efficacy of the rose tea was quite good, and his anger abated somewhat after taking a few sips. He glanced at
Shermaine again. “You get out too.”
Shermaine smiled and answered, “Yes, sir.”
Then, she went out.
Odell opened the file in front of him and read it. Just as he was about to focus on his work, another knock sounded
at the door.
He frowned.
Shermaine opened the door and said to him, “Master Carter, Master Stockton is here.”
