Chapter 1758
“You have really heavy bags under your eyes. Did you not sleep well last night?” John repeated the question.
Caprice grew wide-eyed and stared at her mother upon hearing the question.
Sherry avoided John’s gaze and answered curtly, “I had some urgent work to deal with last night so I ended up sleeping late.”
“What kind of urgent work?” he asked.
This got him a sharp look from Sherry. “Why are you so talkative today?”
John pursed his lips and changed the topic. “What do you want for breakfast?”
Sherry pretended she did not hear him and ignored him.
Caprice answered for her, “I want pancakes!”
John looked at Sherry to see if she had other opinions. She did not provide any feedback at all.
The next few days were relatively uneventful.
One afternoon, Sherry finally saw Carl. This was her first time meeting him since their last encounter at Ron’s.
He was wearing a black suit and his hair was neatly combed.
Although he still had a little air of playfulness about him, his entire demeanor was far more serious compared to the way he was in the past.
Sherry met him during a last-minute meeting arranged by Lisa.
Lisa was seated at the head of the table, with Sherry and Carl on both sides.
The ones seated in Sherry’s row were the department leaders in Sager Corporation.
On the other edge of the table was Carl and a row of major shareholders of the corporation.
Neither Ron, Aiden, nor Caden was anywhere to be seen.
Chances were they were not ever coming to sit at this table ever again.
