Все главы Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife: Глава 1711 - Глава 1720

Caprice lifted her plump face and hummed a reply. Maybe because the girl was hungry, she did not even need Sherry to carry her to the table. She crawled out of the couch, waddled her way to John, and reached out to him with her arms open, asking him to carry her up. John carried her up and placed her on the baby chair. Sherry sat down at the table. Similar to Caprice, she picked up the cutlery and started eating. After a silent meal, Caprice continued watching cartoons before she yawned. Sherry carried the girl into the room. “Caprice, take a nap if you are sleepy.” Caprice refused to let go of her mother despite the fact that she could barely keep her eyes open. She grumbled, “Caprice wants to sleep with Mommy.” Sherry smiled. “Okay.” She got onto the bed with the girl and hummed her a lullaby. A while later, Caprice fell asleep soundly. Sherry laid down for a little longer before she tucked the girl in and got off the bed. She changed out of her dress from the e

Things went silent for a moment. John looked at her with teary eyes. He forced his lips to curl and then asked, “What about Caprice? Are you going to abandon her?” Sherry’s eyes teared up. She averted his questioning gaze immediately and inhaled deeply to regulate her emotions. “I’ll just pretend I never gave birth to her.” With her capabilities, she could never get Caprice’s custody from John. Besides, Caprice had been living with John since her birth, and she relied on him a lot more. Sherry had to cut ties with her previous marriage once and for all because it was her only option. “Hmph…” John scoffed helplessly as he choked on his emotions. He never thought she would reject him so resolutely. He was at a loss for words. Sherry frowned heavily. She endured the stinging pain in her chest and said, “Move.” “Fine…” John finally moved from the door. Right when she was about to turn the handle, she heard whimpers from behind her. Sherry’s heart clenched as she turned

Sherry glared at John. If her eyes could fire lasers, John would have been punctured with numerous holes by now. She swallowed the rage in her breath and went back to coaxing Caprice, “No, that’s not what this is, Mommy only wants to go to them to talk about something.” "What do you guys want to talk about?" John asked sharply. Caprice was still sobbing. Sherry was running out of options. She took a deep breath and confessed, "I was never with Carl. Our engagement was a ruse this entire time.” John seemed intrigued by this. Caprice suddenly stopped sobbing. She caught her breath and asked in a tone of complete naivety, “What’s a ruse?” Sherry heaved a sigh of relief and answered, “It means that you’re putting on an act for others. We want people to think that I’m with Uncle Carl when in reality, nothing is happening between us at all.” Caprice only heard the part where they were not together and immediately lit up. “Why are you two acting?” Sherry answered

Lisa glanced at Carl who had been staring at Sherry silently the entire time. After a momentary silence, she asked Sherry, “What’s the situation between you and Master Stockton right now? Since you’re divorced, why did he come all the way here to Coastrock to meet you?” Sherry turned to Caprice. The child was getting sleepy by now and was beginning to doze off in Lisa’s arms. She would be drifting off to sleep soon. Sherry whispered, "I haven't divorced him yet." Lisa was shocked by this. Carl was just as taken aback, and he was visibly disturbed by this. A stagnant silence fell upon them, until Lisa expressed somberly, “So, that’s why…” That explained John’s antics during the engagement ceremony and why he had taken advantage of Aiden to further his agenda. The two were not divorced yet. Lisa recalled the pictures of Sherry and John that Aiden had cast on the screen during the engagement ceremony and asked suspiciously, “If you two are not divorced, why does

Although it may seem like the shareholders were concerned about her, it was clear as day that they were probing for information about John. Ron was the most suspicious of them all, evident by his message that read, “President Sherry, Aiden and Caden have done something terrible today. If they had come to me and told me about their plan, I would have shut it down immediately. I would like to apologize for what happened. "Also, forgive my mom for being so stubborn in her traditional ideals. She’s our elder after all. What’s wrong with being married before? As long as you have something to offer to the table, I won’t mind you wedding into the family even if you have been divorced thrice in the past. "It’s truly a shame that things were ruined by Aiden and Cade. I have already lectured them just now. When you come in to work on Monday, I will have them apologize to you. "By the way, say hello to Master Stockton for me, if you would.” Sherry chuckled. The final sentence was
