Odette was ready to risk it all to ensure Enoch would finally back off!
Pretending to be pregnant? Yeah, she totally made that up!
Oberon, standing off to the side, could hardly believe his ears.
What was this woman thinking?
Spilling these beans in front of Mr. Taylor?
Did she honestly think Mr. Taylor's beef with the Lawson family was all about her?
...
“Are you done?” Enoch asked, eyeing Odette.
“I've said my piece,” Odette replied firmly.
“Then you can leave,” Enoch gestured towards the door with a dismissive wave.
Odette looked at him, “And what about the Lawson family?”
“Get out,” Enoch snapped.
Standing up, Odette faced him, “Fine, I'm leaving!”
She felt she had made herself crystal clear. No matter how much Enoch tried to mess with the Lawson family, she was not going to marry him!
...
Drusilla arrived just as Odette was leaving.
“You here to see Enoch?” Odette asked, stopping in her tracks.
“That’s none of your business,” Drusilla retorted.
“I’m stressed, but what can I do? I’m not about to gamble away my happiness for life.” Odette selfishly finished, then looked at Drusilla, “Anyway, you figure out the family stuff. I know my sister can handle it, right?”
“Odette, after all this time with Enoch, you feel nothing for him?” Drusilla was genuinely curious.
Odette seemed so indifferent, as if afraid of any connection to Enoch.
“What’s feeling got to do with it? Get real. He’s paralyzed, stuck in a wheelchair. I’d have to care for him forever, be his lifelong nursemaid. Doesn’t that just make you sick? I’m not as noble as you.”
“One day, you’ll regret this,” Drusilla said, knowing something Odette didn’t – Enoch could recover. She was curious to see how Odette would react when Enoch would stand on his own two feet.
Odette, hearing Drusilla’s prediction of regret, smirked, “I never regret my decisions, don’t worry!”
With that, she turned and left.
Drusilla, hearing Odette’s parting words, shook her head and went in to see Enoch.
