Chapter 1055 Soon, everyone lost interest in Sherry when they noticed how she was not up to anything and was
only here for the food and wine. They all went back to their previous conversations as they waited for the true star
of the evening to show up.
It was around the point that Sherry was almost finished with her food when there was a clamor amongst the
crowd.
“Look, it‘s Master Stockton!”
“Master Stockton is here!”
Sherry looked at where the center of the commotion was and quickly noticed a tall figure striding over. His long and
slender legs glided gracefully underneath him. He wore a faint, charming smile that seemed to dazzle even
underneath the radiant sun. If anybody could be compared to a prince coming out of a fairytale, it was this man. A
group of beautiful young women flocked after him wherever he went.
This man was none other than John Stockton.
Sherry scoffed at the sight of him.
A wolf was what he was.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe turned away and directed her focus back to her food. However, despite her best attempts to stay out of
trouble, trouble ended up finding her instead.
Before long, she found herself at the center of the commotion. She looked up and saw John quickly advancing
toward her with a group of ladies trailing after him.
She frowned.
What was this bastard up to this time?
Before she could figure it out though, John had brought the entire group to her side.
He turned around and leaned against a pillar, then he casually snatched up a glass of wine on a tray next to Sherry.
He turned to his group of followers and announced with a gentle smile, “Thank you for coming, ladies. Let me give
all of you a toast.”
How could they resist the warm and gentle glow of his eyes? They all packed toward the tray next to Sherry to get
some wine to toast John.
Sherry barely had time to rise and give her seat to them before they forcefully pushed her out of the way. In the
mix of confusion and chaos, she stumbled, fell, and even rolled on the ground like a fool.
When she pushed herself up, she met Queenie‘s eyes that were full of mockery.
Everyone‘s attention was solely focused on the star of the night, John. It was only Queenie who was looking at her.
She had a deep suspicion that it was Queenie who had kicked her from behind and made her fall.
What had she done to offend the Stocktons‘ spoiled daughter?
She glowered at Queenie who grimaced and stuck out her tongue at Sherry in response.
Sherry was rendered speechless by this and simply rolled her eyes. It was an insult to her intellect to even give this
woman the time of her day. There was no point in fussing
about with this Stockton imbecile.
At this juncture, she rose and walked to the other side of the venue.
To her surprise, Queenie rose and followed after her. She kept a safe distance behind Sherry, as if afraid of being
struck. Then, she began to provoke her, “Sherry, I thought my brother invited you here. Why is he ignoring you
now? Why did you get kicked out?”
“Queenie , do you have an itch that needs scratching ?” Sherry glared at her and gestured with her hands. “Want
me to scratch it for you?”
Queenie immediately lunged backward and shot a look at
her. “Don‘t you dare even try!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSherry laughed at this response. “Well, don‘t be shy. Come forward and you‘ll know if I dare to try to or not.”
“Heh, enjoy this while it lasts because once my brother finds a suitable partner, the first thing he will do is kick you
out of the house! Don‘t you ever think about showing up in our presence ever again!” With that, Queenie turned
and trotted away.
Sherry scoffed at this threat, “I can‘t wait.”
She found another quiet corner and sat down.
Alas, before she could even make herself comfortable in her new seat, there was yet another commotion.
The group of ladies that crowded around John suddenly returned to the center of the venue and seemed to be
fussing about something. They were frantically brushing their hair, attending to the creases in their dress, and fixing
their makeup in anticipation of something important.
That was when Queenie suddenly approached Sherry again and taunted her, “My brother is going to pick his first
dance partner for the night. My mother said that the first person he dances with tonight will be his future wife. Who
do you think he will choose?” Sherry merely ignored her.
