Chapter 1200 The maids stood in a single line with Emerence talking sternly in the front
It seemed serious, so Sherry stayed outside and listened.
Basically, the meeting was about the event that would be held the next day in the Stocktons‘ banquet hall.
Madam Stockton was starting a charity organization, and many guests were invited to discuss their agenda. It was
considered a social event for their guests to mingle.
The maids in line were the ones responsible for working at the event tomorrow.
Emerence went through the details with them again and again, emphasizing many things on the agenda, and even requested them to memorize all the guests‘ names. All the names she read out were strangers to Sherry except for one: Mason Brown.
The meeting lasted for half an hour.
Before dispersing the maids, Emerence gave one last piece of reminder, “Be prepared. Madam Stockton regards the event highly. No one is allowed to make any
mistakes.”
“We understand, Aunt Emerence,” the maid answered en masse before they scattered to their quarters.
Emerence turned around and saw Sherry by the door. Her already stern look got even colder. “Sherry, why are you back at this hour?”
“John is not coming back, so I figured I‘d return.”
Annoyed, Emerence snapped, “How would you know Master John is not coming back? Who told you that?”
Sherry said, “Queenie called John, and he said he‘s not coming back tonight.”
Silenced by Sherry‘s explanation , Emerence glared at her and walked away.
“Oh. I got it.”
Shannon continued eating her breakfast and Sherry left.
Shortly after that, Shannon slammed the plates and cutleries on the floor.
Startled, Celine immediately asked, “Madam, what‘s wrong?”
Shannon clenched her fists tightly in silence.
Celine nervously said, “Madam, I believe Master John is too busy with his work. I heard he was barely around the house even before the wedding. I‘m sure he‘s not staying outside on purpose.”
Shannon‘s expression remained frosty.
It had almost been two months since the wedding. The first month he had gone out for a business trip, and the following month, he did not even spend a single night at home.
