Chapter 1546
The image of John fresh out of the shower surfaced in Sherry’s mind again against her will. She felt her cheeks glowing hot and tried to turn away from John so he would not notice. She asked him a question to distract him, “Do you have anything lined up later?”
John answered, “There’s a meeting later. I also need to join this event that’s taking place later this evening.”
Sherry was thrilled to hear this and quickly seized the chance. “Then can I take Caprice home with me first?”
John gave her a sideways look. “We’ll wait until Caprice wakes up.”
“Fair enough,” Sherry said.
John walked out.
Caprice happened to wake up just as soon as he left.
She snapped her eyes open and cried out the moment she recognized who was next to her, “Mommy!”
Sherry took Caprice into his arms and repeatedly planted kisses on her chubby cheeks. She threw on a coat for Caprice and took her out of the room.
John was sitting at his desk going through stacks of documents.
When he heard them approaching, he darted his eyes for a quick look.
Caprice was still slightly drowsy since she had just woken up and was slouched over Sherry’s shoulder.
Sherry smiled warmly at him. “Take your time, I’ll take Caprice home first.”
John let them go and merely mumbled, “Okay.”
Sherry hurriedly shuffled out.
As soon as she stepped out of the elevator with Caprice in her arms, all of the employees in the building fixed a surprised look in her direction.
Sherry caught on to what was happening.
She was so focused on trying to get Caprice out of there as soon as possible that she forgot the fact that everyone in the building recognized Caprice.
Sure enough, all of the employees dropped their tasks and stared at her with equal shock and suspicion.
They were curious how a mere visitor who came to see their president was allowed to simply waltz off with the president’s dear daughter.
