Chapter 1514
Sherry was taken aback by this request.
She walked up to Cart and clapped her hands against his, producing a clear smack, then she said
sincerely. “Send me a message when you get home. I have other errands to get to, I won’t be sending you
off
With that, she walked past him.
Carl grimaced and sighed. “What a heartless woman.”
Sherry ignored him and continued pressing forward. She had only taken several steps when she noticed two figures
approaching her.
One was a tall man in a white shirt.
In his arm was Caprice. She was scanning her surroundings with childlike curiosity and the moment she noticed
Sherry approaching, she cried out at the top of her voice, “Mommy!”
Sherry lit up the moment she saw Caprice. She hurriedly walked up to them and promptly took Caprice from John’s
arm while asking, “What brought you two here?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJohn smiled and mentioned, “Caprice said she missed you, so I figured I’d bring her over to see you.”
Midway through his sentence, he darted a glance behind Sherry.
Carl was approaching them with a smug smile on his face. “If it isn’t Master Stockton! Good evening.”
John greeted him with a courteous smile, “Master Carl, are you leaving already?”
“Yeah,” Carl said as he threw a glance at Sherry, “I have a flight to catch. I’ll be seeing you two.”
John stepped to the side to make way for Carl.
Carl threw his backpack over his shoulder and strode outside.
Sherry glanced at Carl hastily exiting the scene like a criminal. She waited until he was out of earshot before turning
back to John. “When did you two get here?”
John informed, “A short while ago, we were just a little later than Carl.”
Could this mean that he overheard her conversation with Carl back there?
Oh well, Sherry could not care less as she knew what things were like between Carl and herself.
With that, she gestured. “I finished up here as well, let’s go.”
John made a look and said, “Okay.”
It was still rather early, and Caprice did not want to head home just yet.
Sherry offered to take her to the playground to spend the evening.
Before John could offer any opinion, the little girl cried out gleefully, “Okay!”
So, the two of thern took Caprice to a private playground and spent the evening there.
It was already dark by the time they left the playground.
Sherry carried Caprice in her arms and followed John to a private restaurant they frequented from time to
time.
Since John was a regular, the owner recognized him at first glance.
As soon as Sherry entered with John, the owner greeted them warmly, “Young Master Stockton, Madam Stockton!
Please, come inside.”
Madam Stockton?
Sherry frowned and tried to correct him, but not before she suddenly remembered that they were indeed husband
and wife and decided against doing so.
Caprice was not a picky eater and ate whatever was put on her plate.
They finished their meal shortly after.
Caprice immediately began to feel sleepy after eating as her exhaustion from playing had finally caught up to her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt did not take long before she fell asleep in Sherry’s arms.
Sherry was again enchanted by Caprice’s adorable and peaceful look when she was sleeping and planted several
kisses on her cheeks.
She turned up and immediately met a sinister gaze boring down on her.
John was staring at her intently.
She asked grumpily, “What?”
He responded with a similar harshness, “Did you even wipe your mouth after eating?”
Was he upset because he thought she kissed Caprice with her lips still grimy from the food they ate?
She answered crossly, “I did, do I look like a child to you?”
“Then why are your lips still greasy?” He frowned and seemed repulsed.
Sherry was taken aback by this. “What? How come I can’t feel any greasiness?”
“There’s something stuck to the corner of your lips.” John pointed out.
Sherry wanted to get a mirror from her bag to take a better look, but her bag was next to John. It was hard for her
to reach for the bag with Caprice in her arms.
