Chapter 1790
“Please, I’m the reason things turned out this way.” Carl took a breath before adding, “Besides, I’m not doing this for you.”
Something stirred in John’s eyes. “Then I shall thank you in place of Sherry.”
Carl bit down on his lip.
After a somber silence, he looked at John again. The previous nonchalant look in his eyes had grown standoffish and guarded.
He declared without warning, “Master Stockton, even though Sherry chose to be with you, I still consider her as close as family. You’d better not mistreat her in the future or else I won’t go easy on you. Mark my words!”
John zipped his lips into a thin smile and assured him. “That won’t happen.”
“I sure hope it won’t.” Carl straightened himself. “Also, thanks for the tipoff about Ron.”
With that, he stepped out of the apartment, shutting the door behind him.
John smiled and took a sip of his tea.
Meanwhile, Jason had safely transported Sherry, Madam Stockton, and Queenie to the airport.
Madam Stockton was very reluctant to part with Caprice. She held tightly onto Caprice’s hand for a long time and refused to let go.
Sherry and Queenie chatted for a while.
They waited until the last minute before boarding to step through the gate.
Sherry went home with Caprice.
Jason was driving while Sherry sat in the back with Caprice in her arms.
She had rolled the windows down so she could feel the gentle breeze coming from the direction of the sea.
Caprice lay comfortably against her chest. She suddenly told Sherry, “Mommy, I’m a little sad.”
Sherry was startled.
Caprice looked perfectly happy when they were with Madam Stockton and Queenie back at the airport. She snuggled to both Madam Stockton and Queenie the entire time and had playful exchanges with them.
