Chapter 1437
Sherry crossed her arms. “The richest man in
Glanchester, the master of the Stockton family. Go ahead,
then.”
Carl pursed his lips and laughed dryly. “Heh… I’m not
afraid of him, but we’re in Glanchester now. This is his territory, after all. Give me some time. I have to make a
long–term plan.”
Sherry ignored him. She knew Carl too well. Although he was like a dandy, he was not a fool. If it was someone he
could bully, he would be sure to beat them to death, but
when it came to John, he was just playing lip service. It was impossible to offend John easily.
The elevator soon stopped at her floor.
She took a step and limped out.
Carl followed her all the way to her room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSherry turned back to him. “Master Sager, do you need something else?”
Carl leaned his back on the wall by her door and said with a smile, “No, I just thought that the weather here is too
cold and wanted to ask if you need someone to warm your bed at night.”
Sherry said, “No.”
“Oh, okay,” Carl turned around and went out.
Sherry immediately locked the door behind her and lay
down on the bed.
The room was quiet, and she was obviously very tired, but she could not sleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, the
scenes of her being carried out by the security guards flooded her mind uncontrollably.
The cold words of Jake and Janine, Madam Stockton and the others‘ cold and contemptuous eyes, and that man’s
hatred for her…
The tip of her nose felt sour, and she pressed a pillow to
her face in annoyance.
Outside the door, in the corridor, Carl stood by the door
after coming out.
When he did not hear any sound after a while, he finally moved toward the elevator. At the same time, he took out
his phone and sent a voice message. “Send me Sherry Fowler’s whereabouts these past few days, and check her
relationship with John Stockton, the master of the
Stockton family.”
Meanwhile, two streets away was the hotel where Sherry had been staying before.
The lobby on the first floor was brightly lit. Not far from the entrance, a large and small figure was sitting on the
sofa.
The hotel manager personally came over with tea and snacks. “Master Stockton, the weather is cold. Have some
tea and something to eat.”
John pursed his lips. “Thanks.”
“You’re welcome.” The hotel manager put down the tea and food, then retreated to the side.
John looked at Caprice. “Are you tired, Caprice?”
Caprice shook her head. Her large eyes looked toward the entrance of the hotel, and her small mouth could not

John’s eyes darkened for a moment. It had been almost three hours since she ran away from Glanchester Hotel. It
was almost midnight, so she should be back by now.

Did she not dare to come back because she guessed that he brought people here to stop her?
He took out a box of children’s snacks and handed it to
Caprice. “Just wait. She might have been delayed by something.”
“Okay.” Caprice took the snack and nibbled on it.
John looked toward Peter and a few bodyguards standing not far away. “You guys disperse first. Come out when
she comes back.”
Peter understood what he meant and walked away somewhere else with the bodyguards.
The surroundings were quiet. At this time, almost no one came in and out of the hotel anymore.
John closed his eyes somewhat wearily.
However, as soon as he closed his eyes, the image of her being held down wretchedly by two security guards and
being scorned mercilessly by her parents came to his mind.
