Chapter 1196
Shannon went after her, stopped her, and nervously asked, “Where did John bring you? What did you two do
outside?”
Sherry pouted. “Shannon, why do you think I have to go out with him?”
Shannon’s gaze shifted. She widened her eyes and continued questioning, “Where did you two go?”
Sherry just wanted to sleep, so she simply said, “We attended a meeting at a restaurant.”
Shannon‘s gaze turned cold. “He brought you to a meeting?”
Sherry failed to understand why she was so mad. “Yeah. I was there just to hold his briefcase. What‘s wrong with
that?”
Shannon continued to glare at her. “How did he introduce you to the others?”
Sherry finally knew what Shannon was trying to do. Shannon must be afraid that she wrongfully flaunted the title of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMrs. Stockton.
Sherry honestly said, “He said that I was the maid.”
Shannon‘s frosty expression eased up a little, but her
eyes remained widened. “Sherry, you‘d better not step out of line. Know your place. If you dare to even think of
John, Dad and Mom won‘t forgive you.”
“Hmph. Shannon, Shannon, do you really think I‘m afraid of them?” Sherry scoffed.
Shannon‘s expression changed as she was rendered speechless.
Sherry approached her and said, “Shannon, I think you should keep an eye on your Johnny John instead of worrying
about me getting close to him.”
A sudden thought rushed into Sherry‘s mind. She continued, “Did you tell your Daddy and Mommy about the eight
hundred million?”.
Shannon‘s eyes flickered. “That‘s your debt to John. They can’t do anything about it.”
“They can‘t do anything about it? Or do they not want to? Don‘t they know I can leave John if they give him eight
hundred million?” Sherry clicked her tongue. “Shannon, my dear, it seems like you are not as important to them as
you think.”
“At least, I‘m more important than you to them!” Shannon bawled. “Sherry, you are just a bitch from some village.
Don‘t try to provoke me with your tricks. I want you away from John, or you will regret it!”
A bitch from some village?
There was nothing wrong with coming from a rural background, and she had no right to call her a bitch.
As Sherry glared at her coldly, Shannon walked past her, seemingly going back to her place.
Sherry curled her lips into a grin. “Shannon , shouldn‘t you thank the bitch from some rural village? If that woman
hadn‘t swapped me for you when we were born, you wouldn‘t be scolding me today.”
Shannon froze. She turned around and saw Sherry grinning at her. Fortunately, she was able to recover her
composure and curled her lips into a smile. “That woman that you are referring to is your mother. I have only one
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmother, and that‘s Janine Williams. She told me many times that she only has one daughter–and that‘s me!” Sherry
pursed her lips in annoyance. Shannon cackled with laughter upon seeing Sherry‘s silence before she turned and
left.

The night was chilly with the breeze whipping her hair around. Sherry‘s hands and legs somehow felt cold. She
watched Shannon walk away from her sight with a self mocking grin. She could never beat Shannon when it came
to their parents. If she could choose, she would rather be born in a village as a normal person and have parents
that loved her like
their own, just like the girls that she used to play with back when she was young.
She would not have to be tortured by her uncle when she cried for her parents, and she would not have to be
jealous when that fake mother of hers loved others more than herself.
Maybe she had done something wrong in her past life, so she was punished without parents in the present.
She sighed and sniffed as she walked towards the staff quarters.
After she left, a maid in uniform came out of the dark.
The maid headed to Julie‘s place after both Shannon and Sherry returned to their respective places.
Sherry took her time to return to the quarters.
