Chapter 1110
Janine’s expression froze.
Even Jake, who spoke to Sherry first, was stunned. He asked, “Sherry, are you unhappy with me or something?”
Sherry smiled. “I didn’t even know you before this, so why should I be unhappy with you?”
Jake was left speechless.
Janine was trying her best to suppress her anger.
The atmosphere became awkward for a while until Matthew intervened. “It’s enough. The girl came back when she
was already a teen. She was spoilt in the countryside. Just ignore her and enjoy the banquet.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJanine rested her anger and said, “Yeah, just ignore her. Let’s eat.”
She turned to Jake to say, “Jake, don’t mind her. Just enjoy the banquet.” The awkwardness faded as the others
agreed with the suggestion. Jake grumbled, “You guys shouldn’t have brought her back. Now that Shannon is Mrs.
Stockton, if others know that the little savage here is her sister, it will only embarrass the family more.”
“Yeah, Jake’s right.”
Sherry clutched her cutlery tightly.
Janine said, “I know, I know. Father wants her back; and you know how his tempers are. We can’t possibly argue
with him.”
Sherry looked at her and saw the brightest smile on her face. She had no idea that her own mother would be this
gleeful to discredit her. She slightly raised her knife, but before she could pitch it out, Matthew intervened.
“Enough. No matter how rude she is, Sherry is our daughter. We’ll try our best to teach her the right way. Let’s just
leave her for now and enjoy the banquet.”
As Sherry’s bitter expression changed, she subtly lowered her hand holding the knife.
Meanwhile , Janine sulked in silence. The others zipped their mouths since the man of the family had spoken. They
continued to enjoy the banquet and simply ignored Sherry’s existence.
Just when Sherry thought she could make it through the banquet without any more hindrance, The bride and groom
came by.
John and Shannon had changed into simpler attire to walk around more comfortably.
John had changed into a black suit with a red bowtie
sitting snugly at his collar while Shannon had changed into a red dress.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were a few waiters behind them holding trays of champagne.
Everyone at the table stood up, except Sherry. This time around, everyone placed their attention on the bride and
groom instead of the black sheep at the table.
John and Shannon went over to Matthew and Janine who wore the brightest smiles on their faces.
John grabbed a glass of champagne and said, “Matthew, Janine, thank you for letting me have Shannon’s hand in
marriage. A toast.”
Shannon raised her glass together with her parents. Their glasses clinked before they took a sip.
“John, I’ll leave Shannon in your care. Please take good care of her.”
“I’ll take care of her with everything I’ve got. Don’t worry,” John said.
Janine said to Shannon, “Shannon, you have to be a good wife to John and share the burden, do you understand?”
