Chapter 1486
John swiped a look at her. “What, are you going to keep
staying here forever?”
Sherry was bewildered.
What was the meaning of this?
Was he suggesting that she pack up and move to his place?
However… Their marriage was only a formality done for Caprice’s sake. Was there ever a need for them to live
together?
(C
John noted her reluctance and stated dispassionately, Sherry, if you want to see Caprice every day from here on,
‘you better pack up and come down here in ten minutes.”
Sherry was still reeling back from the shock.
Upon noticing how she was frozen stiff, Caprice, who was in the arms of John, suddenly urged her on, “Mommy, go
and pack up. We’ll wait for you here, then we can go home together.”
Her cheeks were radiantly red, an expectant and excited look loomed in her eyes.

After reaching her room in the hotel, she proceeded to stuff all her belongings into suitcases.
It did not take long for her to finish packing up.
She lugged the suitcase behind her and left the hotel.
There was another car behind the silver car they arrived at the hotel in. A crew of bodyguards stepped out of the
car and helped her with her suitcases.
Sherry returned to the silver car.
Caprice crawled out of John’s arms and threw herself into Sherry’s.
Sherry wrapped her arms tightly around Caprice and cast a shifting glance at the man next to her.
He was laid back against the seat and stared forward as if “his attention was fixed on something in front. He wore
an indifferent look. He would hardly bother to spare a glance in Sherry’s direction if not for Caprice.
Sherry asked, “Where are we going next?”
“Home.”
“And which home is that supposed to be?”
John ignored her as these questions were annoying him.
Sherry shot a look at him, then turned to Caprice.
The girl was yawning, she was probably getting sleepy.
Even when she was sleepy, she still looked adorable as
ever.
Sherry gently brushed the top of her head and said softly, “Caprice, go to sleep if you’re sleepy.”
“Okay.” Caprice closed her eyes and fell asleep in no time.
It was very quiet in the car.
Sherry glanced out the car window.
She noticed that they were getting closer to the Stockton Villa. An uncomfortable look began to surface in her
eyes,, and her brows tightened.
This was the place she wanted nothing more than to escape from three years back. Why was she back here?
She felt a looming sense of doom.
The only thing that calmed her was the sight of Caprice sleeping soundly in her arms, her rhythmic breathing
against her chest as she slept.
There was nothing to worry about, she told herself. They only got married for Caprice. Circumstances were
different now and John no longer had any feelings for her. The past was the past and he would no longer hold it
against her so he would not make her suffer again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAll she needed to do now was to strengthen her bond with Caprice, then she could take Caprice away when the
time was ripe.
She was not going to be stuck here for the rest of her life.
Once the car made a turn and entered the property, she could feel John’s eyes beating on her.
John observed the subtle change in Sherry’s expression.
There was first a sour look as if she would rebel against her fate, but what followed after was perfect compliance. It
surprised him how quickly she gave in.
He was expecting her to cuss up a storm.
There were many separate houses on the property and he, owned plenty of property throughout the city as well. If
Sherry did not want to live with him, he could consider her letting her stay somewhere else with Caprice.
The car drove down the familiar main road and passed through the main gate.
John withdrew his gaze from Sherry and looked forward.
Sherry observed the driveway.
The courtyard and garden looked just the same as they did two years ago, hardly anything changed at all.
She took a deep breath and hugged Caprice tighter, her eyes fixed in front of her.
Several minutes later, the car stopped by the entrance to a courtyard.
