Chapter 1229 The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she got.
Sherry bolted up and opened the window.
As soon as the window opened, two bodyguards looked up at her. Her room was on the second floor and it was just
a few meters off the ground, so they looked at her cautiously.
Sherry glared at the two of them for a while before returning inside.
The breeze came through the opened window, caressing her face and calming the frustration in her head. She
suddenly thought of Sylvia telling her about Odell having his men undercover in the Stocktons‘ residence.
If she could just locate the men, would she be able to ask them to contact Sylvia and Odell to come to rescue her?
The problem would be how to locate them.
Sherry pondered for a while and suddenly thought of an idea. She walked to the closet by the door and picked up

After meddling around for half an hour, she carried the white sheets to the window and hung them over the rail.
One end of the sheets was bound to the rail while the other end fluttered in the wind.
The two bodyguards below the window were rendered speechless by the sudden occurrence. Soon enough, some
other passersby saw the fluttering sheets by the window, and Emerence was notified. She stood under the window
and shouted , “Sherry, pull the sheets back inside!” Sherry sat by the window like a rock and ignored the lady.
“Sherry, I‘m warning you. You will only make Master John mad if you keep this up!”
Sherry continued to ignore her. She did not care if that bastard was happy or not. In fact, she would be pleased if
that bastard was mad at her.
Emerence left in annoyance.
More and more maids on duty gathered under the window.
Sherry even spotted Celine among the maids and saw Queenie and Hailey passing by. The two of them looked at
her with a complicated gaze.
Sherry glanced at the two of them before she continued scanning the others. She wondered if Odell‘s men were
among the gathered crowd.
Meanwhile , at Stockton Tower, John had just finished a meeting with a partner. They shook hands before John saw
him out.
John then picked up his phone and saw the message from Marlow.
“Sir, something has happened with Ms. Fowler.”
A picture was attached to the message.

Or...”
As he narrowed his eyes, a random thought rushed into his mind. He quickly left the meeting room with his phone.
It was windy.
Sherry had been sitting by the window for an hour now, and her little scene had garnered quite the attention, but
there was still no sighting of Odell‘s men among the gathered crowd. She covered herself in the sheets and
continued waiting.
Suddenly, the discussion among the crowd went silent as if the world had died.
Sherry popped her head over the window and saw the crowd opening up a path for a man coming in from the gate;
it was John.
Immediately, her gaze turned cold.
John walked closer to the window and looked up. He glanced at the sheets with the giant ‘help‘ written on them and
then stared at Sherry.
