Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife -
Chapter 149
Chapter 149
Meanwhile, backstage at the awards ceremony, a wall isolated the hustle and bustle outside.
Sylvia was brought to her waiting room by Simon. Not long after, several people rushed to knock on the door. Simon opened the door for them. One of them rushed to Simon and asked, “Mr. Aquila, Master Carter and Tara Avery are here. Shall we go say hello to them?” Simon was puzzled and asked, “Tara Avery? The one who won the bronze medal this year?”
"Yes. She's Master Carter's girlfriend. She's been very famous in Westchester City these years. Master Carter invested a lot in the art industry in Westchester City because of her.”
Another person joked, “Master Carter must have invested a lot to get her the bronze prize too. Someone immediately slapped his shoulder. “Come on, don't say that. What if Tara hears you?
The people laughed and shut up. Simon frowned. He had seen the work that won the bronze award this year. It looked fancy but was not that aesthetically pleasing. The level of her brushstrokes was also not up to standard. He already felt something off about it. Now, it seemed like it was because of this famous Master Carter that Tara won this award.
Simon disdained this kind of thing the most. He said bluntly, “I'm not going. You guys can go instead.”
"Okay," the people responded and were just about to leave. However, one of them suddenly thought of something and turned back to Simon. “By the way, Mr. Aquila, I heard that Sunflower will be coming too. The awards ceremony is starting soon. Is he here yet?”
Simon glanced at the room behind him and replied with a smile. “Yes. You'll see them when the awards are presented later.”
“Really? That's great!” The group left happily. Simon closed the door again and looked at Sylvia's pale face. He hurriedly asked, “Sylvia, you don't look too good. Are you sick?” Sylvia immediately put away the cold light in her eyes, and her pale face regained some of its complexion. She smiled at him and said, “I'm fine.” Simon was still uneasy. “Tell me if you feel unwell.” “Okay, don't worry.”
She just had a physical reaction when she heard Tara's name. However, if Tara saw her later on, her reaction would probably be even greater.
Sylvia looked forward to it.
In the front, in the middle of the first row below the podium, a group of people was gathered for a long time before dispersing back to their respective seats. Odell sat in his chair elegantly. Tara sat beside him with her chin raised and a happy smile on her face. She liked being surrounded by people like this. She especially liked seeing the eyes of those who were jealous that she could sit next to Odell. She could see that the other people who won awards were not satisfied with her, but with Odell around, they had to accept it even if they were unwilling!
After the crowd dispersed, the person in charge of the awards ceremony went to the podium and spoke into the microphone to start the ceremony. “Thank you all very much for coming. First of all, I would like to introduce the program of this awards ceremony today..."
