Chapter 1543
Sherry had a lot of work to get to today so there was no chance that she would be taking Caprice with her. John could do whatever he liked, take Caprice with him or leave her at home, it did not matter to her which option he chose.
Madam Stockton noticed how she kept her distance from the discussion and quickly averted her gaze back to John.
John cast Sherry a sideways look, then he turned to Caprice instead. “Caprice, do you want to stay home with Grandma?”
Caprice muttered softly, “I want to be with Daddy.”
Madam Stockton was immensely disappointed by this, but it was not surprising
since Caprice had always preferred to be with her father.
She took a breath and tried to make the best out of the situation. “In that case, could you bring Caprice back earlier today?”
John answered, “I’ll try my best.”
Then he added, “It’s cold out here, you should head inside quickly.”
Madam Stockton took the hint. “Alright, I’ll head back right away.”
At least John was showing some hint of concern for her well–being.
She counted this as a win.
“Bye–bye, Grandma,” Caprice suddenly cried out.
Madam Stockton waved goodbye to her dear granddaughter. “Okay, goodbye!”
John took Caprice into the car.
Sherry burrowed into the car as well.
The driver revved the engine, and the car drove out of the house.
Madam Stockton walked back to her room after seeing them off.
While on the way back, she bumped into Julie.
Julie wore a very concerned look and asked, “Mom, did John and Sherry take Caprice with them again?”
Madam Stockton was slightly on guard when she heard this question, her jubilant mood quickly died away as she answered crossly, “Yeah.”
Something shifted in Julie’s eyes. She followed Madam Stockton, the two walked side by side. “They’re not going to leave Caprice behind?”
“No.”
“Geez, John sure is something. You haven’t been with Caprice for several days.
