The man on the other end of the call slightly furrowed his brows.
Why did she stutter?
Was she feeling sour because of what he had done to her last night?
His expression changed as he softened his tone. “I was impulsive last night. As long as you stay by my side, and
stop seeing Mason, I promise I won’t do that to you again anymore.”
Sherry’s brows and chest tightened. She had taken Caprice away, yet the man was trying to apologize to her.
“Sherry, why aren’t you saying anything?” he asked.
Sherry frowned. She said, “I don’t know how to answer you.”
The man went silent for a few seconds before he said in delight, “This place is famous for its wine. I’ve bought you
several bottles, and I think they will arrive at your doorstep by tonight.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSherry was silenced but the man’s sudden change of attitude and topic. Should he not be mad that she refused to
talk to him? Why did the man apologize to her on the phone and even bought bottles of wine for her?
“Sherry?” the man called her once more.
“Yeah, I’m here. I know,” she said as she pursed her lips.
“Mm-hmm. I’m reaching soon. I have to go. Talk to you later.”
“Okay.”
Sherry hung up the phone and then saw Caprice looking at her with an innocent gaze.
The girl asked, “Mommy, why did you lie to Daddy?” She understood the brief conversation between Sherry and
John.
Sherry furrowed her brows for a while before she said, “Caprice, Mommy is actually bringing you to the city where I
used to live. Do you want to come with me?”
Caprice’s eyes gleamed. A thought rushed into her mind and she asked, “Is Mommy bringing Daddy too?”
Sherry said, “Mommy only wants to bring you, not Daddy,”
The girl’s eyes showed brazen disappointment. “If Daddy is not going, Caprice is not going.”
Sherry’s chest tightened once more and it started to suffocate her. She sighed after a huge struggle with her
thoughts. “Fine…”
She turned to Brandon. “Brandon, can we turn back?”
Brandon was confused. “Sherry, aren’t you going back to Coastrock?”
“Not now.”
Her new plan would be to discuss her return to Coastrock with John when he came back tomorrow. She also
planned to ask the man if she could bring Caprice there for a few days. Since she had not completed the tasks
Madam Sagers had assigned her, she had to go back eventually.
She also planned to tell John the truth about why she cheated on him with Mason nine years ago.
From another perspective, if John cheated on her with some other women and still kept in contact with the mistress,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmeven she would feel betrayed.
He did not trust her because he saw her cheating on him with Mason with his own eyes. It was an obstacle in his
heart that he could not get over. If she told him the truth and cleared the obstacle for him, he might be able to trust
her in the future.
Back at Stockton Residence, Julie had been calling John since Madam Stockton left.
However, maybe because John was busy, Julie was unable to get to him until now.
The call finally got through swiftly and the man’s rich voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “Julie? What’s
the matter?”
Julie feigned a nervous look and tone and said, “John, Sherry is taking Caprice away. Mother has gone after them. I
think you need to send your men after them.”
The man’s expression turned grave. “Isn’t she playing with Caprice at home?”
“No. Mia saw her sending Aunt Wanda and Jason away in the morning and then she brought Caprice into the car
with her own driver. She even had two backpacks with her.”
The man’s handsome face was shrouded with a layer of grim.
No wonder Sherry stuttered in the call earlier. She was running away with Caprice!
