Chapter 1468
Outside, it was dark and cold.
Sherry really missed Caprice. She did not leave. Instead, she crouched in the dark, wrapped in a thick down jacket, hoping to see Caprice when she came out with John.
However, even after a few hours and there were no people left on the road, she did not see John bring Caprice out.
There were several times when she had spent the night at Sager Corporation when something urgent cropped up. Something mostly likely really did happen to that man, so he might not leave the office tonight.
Sherry stopped squatting there. She touched her empty stomach and called a taxi back to the hotel.
Two days later, at around 4 p.m., she heard from him again.
He said that he had read her revised letter of intent for partnership and wanted to go through the details.
Sherry rushed to Stockton Tower but was escorted to the conference room again. It took another half an hour for John to come. Then, he wasted her time until the evening and did not allow her to go upstairs with him afterward.
Sherry missed Caprice, but she endured it.
Then, another day passed.
She had just gotten back from a bistro when she received a message from him, saying that he wanted to talk to her further about collaborating.
Sherry did not even eat lunch and rushed straight over.
However, she was taken to the conference room again, and it took another half an hour before John walked in with elegant steps.
Sherry forced herself to curl her lips at him. Her smile was cold and fake, and slightly twisted.
John was stunned but smiled at her, saying, “Sorry for …the wait, Ms. Fowler.”
Sherry sneered in her heart. “It’s fine.” Her smile was still very stiff and fake.
John paused. “You don’t have to smile if you don’t want to.”
Sherry immediately put away her smile and looked at him coldly.
He gave a low chuckle and sat down opposite her. Like the previous two times, he first drank two sips of tea, then unhurriedly flipped through the printed documents.
Sherry sat without moving.
Time slowly ticked by.
