Chapter 1059 “Don‘t be like that, Queenie. John already chose her, so
“Hmph! I‘m going to find Mom!”
Without waiting for Julie to finish, Queenie stormed off angrily to find Madam Stockton.
As Julie sighed helplessly and walked over toward the crowd, Sherry narrowed her eyes.
‘This woman is really good at instigating. ‘If she hadn‘t mentioned going to see Shannon, Queenie wouldn‘t have thought of going to find Madam Stockton either. But what does John choosing a wife have anything to do with her?
‘Does she hate Shannon? Or is she afraid that once Shannon marries John, she‘ll steal her position as the lady of the house? Either way, it has nothing to do with me.’
Sherry downed another glass of wine and turned around. She wanted to see if John had left. If he was gone, there was no need for her to stay either.
Soon, she saw him on a sofa about five or six meters directly in front of her. He sat together with Shannon, drinking and chatting while twirling a glass of wine. He
wore a smile on his lips, and a gentle expression graced his face.
Sherry did not know what they were talking about, but Shannon had her head half–lowered, and her expression seemed to be one of shyness as she blushed.
Sherry turned around again and continued to drink while facing the view outside the garden.
The event continued . Although the other young women did not gain John‘s favor, they took advantage of the event to strengthen their relationship with the Stockton family.
The ladies were in groups, either looking for Julie to chat with or greeting John with glasses of wine.
Then, Madam Stockton appeared.
In an instant, all of them immediately went up to greet her. Madam Stockton smiled and welcomed them one by one, and soon came to John and Shannon.
Shannon quickly stood up and said respectfully, “Hello, Madam Stockton. I‘m Shannon Fowler. Just call me Shannon.”
The smile on Madam Stockton‘s face got colder. “You‘re the adopted daughter of the Fowlers, aren‘t you?” The moment those words fell, the surrounding group of people‘s expressions when they looked at Shannon suddenly changed.
Adopted daughter? So, she was not the real daughter of the Fowlers?
Shannon‘s face turned pallid.
Janine , who was at the side , immediately went over and said with a smile, “Madam Stockton, although Shannon isn‘t my birth daughter, she‘s far better than my biological one. My husband and I have always treated Shannon preciously.”
Shannon was better than her biological daughter?
