Chapter 1593
The paramedics swiftly admitted Madam Stockton and the driver to the Emergency Department.
Sherry was held off at the entrance. She stood by the wall and called John.
For some reason, she could not reach him and it showed that he had turned off his phone. She tried calling him a
few times but still could not reach him, so she decided to call Queenie instead.
The call got through in a second. Queenie’s clear voice sounded on the other end of the call, “Sherry, why are you
calling me this early? Are you going out again?”
Sherry took a deep breath and said, “Queenie, listen to me carefully. Your mother got into a car crash.”
“WHAT?!” Queenie screamed.
“I saw a burning car by the roadside, and it was your mother’s car.”
“Where is she now?” Queenie asked in a trembling voice.

“I’m on my way!”
The call ended.

Sherry tried calling John again but still could not get through.
‘He might be busy working,‘ she thought.
Sherry put the phone away and leaned back against the wall. She planned to call him again after a while.
Back at Stockton Residence, Queenie ran to the gate after receiving the call from Sherry. Her car was parked in the
garage.
Before she could get into the car, however, Julie came in and stopped her.
“Queenie, what’s the hurry?” she asked out of curiosity.
Queenie’s eyes got teary and she said, “Julie, Mom’s been in a car crash!”
Julie’s eyes flickered. She then showed a horrified look and said, “Mother went after Sherry earlier. How did she get
into a car crash!?”
Confused, Queenie asked, “Why was she going after Sherry? It was Sherry who informed me that she got into a
crash!”
Julie’s expression shifted once more. “Sherry told you? How did she know Mother was in a car crash?”
Queenie cried, “She said she saw Mom’s car burning by the roadside.”
Julie’s brows furrowed.
Sherry should have been running away with Caprice. How did she spot Madam Stockton’s burning car by the
roadside?
“Julie, let’s go to the hospital right now! She’s at Glenmarie!” Queenie dragged Julie into the car right away.
Julie nodded and followed to find out what happened.
Their house was quite far away from Glenmarie Hospital. Along the way, Julie tried consoling Queenie by saying,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Queenie, don’t worry. Mother will be safe.”
Queenie snorted. She did not want to think about the worst. Then, she thought of Julie’s words from earlier. “Julie,
you said Mom was chasing after Sherry. What did you mean by that?”
Julie sighed. “Actually, Mia passed by your brother’s place this morning and saw Sherry sending Aunt Wanda and
Jason away. Then, she got into the car with Caprice and two backpacks. I found it strange, so I told Mother about it.
Mother believed Sherry was kidnapping Caprice to Coastrock, so she went after her.”
Queenie frowned. “So, you’re saying Mom got into a car crash because she was chasing Sherry?”
Julie said in a small voice, “I don’t know, but she went after Ms. Fowler. Maybe she got nervous and urged the driver
to drive faster.”
Queenie’s brows remained furrowed. “But if Sherry was taking Caprice away, how did she know Mom got into a car
crash?”
Julie said, “I don’t know either. We’ll know when we see her in the hospital.”
She might not know how Sherry found out that Madam Stockton got stuck in the burning car, but she was certain
that Sherry was taking Caprice away to Coastrock, or else she did not need to distract and send Aunt Wanda and
Jason away.
