Chapter 700
Meanwhile at Carter Tower, in the top floor office, the man had just gone through a pile of documents
and wanted to rest his eyes for a bit.
It was then his phone rang. It was from Jacob.
He put the phone near his ears and heard Jacob’s anxious voice.
“Sir, Ms. Avery is looking for you.” There was an obvious disgust in his expression when he heard the
name. “I’m not seeing her.”
“Ms. Avery said she wanted to talk to you about Second Master Carter. She said he was the one who
planned for Spencer Weiss to kidnap her and madam. She also said that Second Master Carter did
more than that. He has been pulling the strings from the dark since Melanie arrived in Westchester City
and before she pushed Madam Carter down the hill. He has been plotting from the dark.”
Odell’s expression turned cold. “What has he been planning?”
“She refused to say. She’d only say when she sees you.”
“Keep an eye out for her. I’m coming right over.”
He bolted up and strode out of the office.
Twenty minutes later, his car stopped in front of Lake Victoria Villa.
Odell got out and strode into the house.
There were several bodyguards in the yard, who he assigned for her since he found out Tara
impersonated Sylvia using the sapphire ring. However, since he was still dealing with the “Carter
Crisis”, he did not have any spare time or energy to deal with her, so he ordered his men to watch her
first.
Two days ago, when Tara learned that he overcame the crisis, she threw a tantrum asking for a
meeting with him but he told his men to send her home.
Her presence disgusted him. He was afraid that he would lose control and end her life upon meeting.
He also told Cliff to inform her that he knew she impersonated Sylvia and told her to be ready to pay
the price for fooling him for so long.
She must be scared, hence her decision to tell on Thomas.
Soon, his towering figure entered the gate. He did not go inside the house though. He sat down on the
chair by the tea table in the yard.
A while later, two bodyguards escorted Tara out of the
house.
She wore a white dress and had heavy makeup on.
Probably because she had been living in fear for many days now, her skin looked rather dark and was
slimmer than before. Even the tight dress looked loose on her.
Her eyes were glued to the elegant and handsome man at the tea table as she paced weakly toward
him. It took her longer than usual to reach his front.
Odell frowned. His disgust for her was showing through his furrowed brows.
The expression scared Tara. It turned her legs weak and she fell to her knees in front of him.
“Odell, I was wrong, I…”
Odell shot a stern glare at her.
The glare silenced her for a moment. She then meekly said, “0 ”
Odell’s expression turned frosty. There was an obvious hint of killing intent in his presence. Tara knew
the disgust he had for her.
He barely looked at her even before he found out about the sapphire ring, and now that he learned the
truth, he probably wanted to tear her apart with his bare hands.
