Chapter 1059

Author: Eggsoup
"Don't be like that, Queenie. John already chose her, so—"

"Hmph! I'm going to find Mom!"

Without waiting for Julie to finish, Queenie stormed off angrily to find Madam Stockton.

As Julie sighed helplessly and walked over toward the crowd, Sherry narrowed her eyes.

'This woman is really good at instigating. 'If she hadn't mentioned going to see Shannon, Queenie wouldn't have thought of going to find Madam Stockton either. But what does John choosing a wife have anything to do with her?

'Does she hate Shannon? Or is she afraid that once Shannon marries John, she'll steal her position as the lady of the house? Either way, it has nothing to do with me.'

Sherry downed another glass of wine and turned around. She wanted to see if John had left. If he was gone, there was no need for her to stay either.

Soon, she saw him on a sofa about five or six meters directly in front of her. He sat together with Shannon, drinking and chatting while twirling a glass of wine. He wore a smile on his

    Janine quickly regained her composure and smiled. "My biological daughter has always been disobedient since she was a child. Did she do something to upset you again?"Madam Stockton snorted. "That biological daughter of yours is very powerful—""Mom." John stood up. His face, which had still been smiling a second ago, was now sullen and cold.Madam Stockton's gaze flickered as she pursed her lips.John showed a smile again as he looked at the group of people in front of him, and said, "Today's event will end here. Everyone, please leave first. Let's do this again another time."The group of people looked at each other before responding."Alright, Master Stockton. We look forward to seeing you again."Some people also bade farewell to Madam Stockton. "Madam Stockton, we're going now. We'll come back to visit you some other time."After exchanging a few polite words, they all left. The large garden soon became empty and quiet.John smiled and looked at Janine and Shannon. "Mrs.

    John quickly stood up. His gaze slanted toward the direction Sherry was standing. "Don't just stand there. Come here."It was like he was calling a dog.Madam Stockton, Queenie, and Julie also immediately looked over.Sherry's lips twitched downward as she walked toward him. She stopped a meter in front of him before asking with a smile, "Master Stockton, the event is over. May I go back now?"John also smiled. "Of course."Sherry turned and left."Stop," he suddenly called out to her.She turned around, restraining the urge to punch him in the face, and asked, "Do you need anything else, Master Stockton?"John stepped in front of her, raised his hand, and touched her head. "What's the rush? Walk with me."Then, he took hold of her hand.Sherry subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, but even using all her strength, she was unable to break free. Thus, she could only follow him out.In the garden, only Madam Stockton, Queenie, and Julie were left.Madam Stockton turned

    Sherry clenched her fists.The place in the garden where he had chosen Shannon to dance with in public was right in front of his eyes, but now he wanted to do that kind of thing with her again!An unprecedented feeling of disgust filled her chest. She could not help but open her mouth and say coldly, "John Stockton, you really are the most disgusting person I have ever met in my life. No one comes close to you."He knew fully well that she was not treated well by her biological parents and that they favored Shannon. He also knew full well that Shannon and she had a poor relationship despite being sisters.However, not only did he deliberately invite Janine and Shannon over to make a joke out of her, but he even chose Shannon as his wife! It was clear he wanted to sicken her to death!Maybe because Sherry was too angry, she could not control her emotions at all, and her eyes turned red after she finished her words. Bitter tears rolled out of her eyes.John frowned, but it was only

    Sylvia replied, "He's very good to me."Sherry smiled.'Yeah, if Odell treated her badly, she would have come to Glanchester to find me again.'...In the old Carters' residence in Westchester City, Sylvia held her phone, looking at the message she just sent to Sherry.'I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but I feel like Sherry is hiding something from me.'After thinking about it, she sent another message. "Sherry, if you encounter any difficulties or need anything, you have to tell me."'Although she's far away in Glanchester, I have Odell with me. I'll definitely be able to help her.'Sherry quickly replied, "I know. Don't worry, I'll definitely tell you if something happens. Talk to you later. I have to get back to my embroidery now. I still have to finish five pieces for that sh*tty guy this week."Sylvia laughed. "Okay."Then, she put down her phone.At that moment, she suddenly saw a figure from the corner of her eye, so she hurriedly turned around.Odell's tall fig

    The corners of Sylvia's mouth twitched.'That's true. When it comes to food, as long as it's simple and delicious, he isn't a fussy eater.'Sylvia ordered a few more dishes to make sure it was enough for two people, then handed the menu to the owner.Before long, the ingredients were served on the table. She was just about to pick up the tongs when a slender hand quickly took them away.It was the man sitting opposite her.With a calm expression, he held the plate with one hand and picked up the ingredients with the other. His action was methodical and skillful, just like a professional.Sylvia could not help but freeze.A short while later, Odell looked at her. "Stop spacing out. The food is ready."She snapped back to her senses and went, "Oh." Then, she picked up the food.After dipping it into the sauce, she placed it into her mouth. The spicy flavor exploded in her mouth. She immediately picked up two more pieces."The beef is ready too," he said to her again not long af

    Her voice was aloof and arrogant. It should be Lily, the woman she met at the street exhibition last time.The man replied, "I still prefer this place. You guys can go elsewhere instead. I'll eat here by myself."That voice belonged to... Simon?Sylvia's eyes lit up, and she immediately said to the man in front of her, "Odell, I think I hear Simon's voice."Odell looked at her. "Mm-hmm.""I'll go out and have a look." Since they met, she could not pretend not to know him. She got up and went out.Outside the corridor, the owner was bowing and apologizing to Lily and the young man beside her.Meanwhile, Simon stood to the side with a somewhat cold expression. It seemed he was annoyed.Sylvia saw him as soon as she stepped out. "Simon."Simon was shocked and smiled. "Sylvia? What are you doing here?""Odell and I are here for dinner," she replied.Lily and the young man beside her also looked over. Their expressions changed, and the young man suddenly asked, "Ms. Sunflower, ar

    Lily was speechless.Her exquisitely made up face instantly became stiff and even a little unpleasant.Even after several seconds had passed, she was still unable to recover her usual elegant demeanor.The young man beside her was also shocked, but he did not dare to say anything in front of Odell.Sylvia was momentarily stunned before she was able to return to her senses.She had already known that Odell would definitely stand on her side, but she had not expected him to speak so bluntly to Lily.Looking at the expression on Lily's face now, Sylvia could not help but smile.Lily's face turned ashen in an instant.Looking at Sylvia coldly, she said, "Ms. Ross, your mental state now seems to be better than previously. I believe that means that you should be able to paint now, right?"Sylvia thought of the paintings at home that she was not very satisfied with, and said nothing.Noticing her silence and her unwillingness to continue this topic, Lily guessed that Sylvia was defi

    Sylvia had only walked a few steps when she heard the man's low, magnetic voice ring out. "Do you want to go home?"She looked up and encountered his dark eyes, which reflected the lights of the night, making them look very seductive.She pursed her lips. "Let's walk out here for a while longer."Odell also smiled. "Sure."He took her hand and walked toward the crowd....In the old Carter residence.Isabel, who had promised that she would take her younger brother to bed early, was now holding a gamepad and killing the people inside the game."Hmph, you little piece of trash. How dare you sneak up on me? Die!"Yay! I won again!"After another round of the game, Isabel tossed the gamepad away and asked Flint, who was sitting beside her, "Little Flint, aren't I amazing?"It was not clear if Flint actually understood or not, but he babbled, "Yah!""Just watch. I'll show you something even more amazing!"Then, she picked up the gamepad again, went back to the game menu, and st

    She was her usual self in every aspect. She put her heart into her job and never started trouble so long as nobody tried to start trouble with her. The crew cycled through their locations during their shoot. The constant travel made her skin break out slightly, but there were no other concerns otherwise. The shoot progressed very smoothly and within three months, they managed to wrap up everything at the mountainous region previously mentioned. It was nearly evening when they wrapped up the shoot. Holding a bouquet in hand, she took a group picture with the crew and celebrated with everyone. After that, she planned to hitch a ride with another crew member and leave for home. To their demise, some men in uniform who claimed to be the road maintenance technicians showed up to break the bad news to them. They mentioned that they had to repair some of the roads urgently and so the way home was temporarily obstructed. The director took his phone and called the city hotline fo

    He remembered his first meeting with Isabel. She was sitting all by herself on the floor, in the middle of nowhere. Her vulnerable expression only made her more endearing. So, he managed to get her to go to his place and installed her in his home. He fell for her and paid careful attention to all her needs. It did not take long before Isabel caught feelings for him as well. The two of them got together in no time. Their days were plain and ordinary, but also very fulfilling, that was until he met Clarice. With the help of his father, his power struggle with Roland had reached a tipping point. It was at that opportune moment when Clarice’s father saw something in Roland and planned to wed his daughter Clarice to him to join up their families, which was a cause for alarm for Decker. He stressed over it for an entire night before approaching Clarice himself the very next day. Clarice quickly caught feelings for him as well. Furthermore, Roland had been foolish enough to reject

    Decker was smiling quite earnestly at Isabel. Isabel threw a deeply suspicious look at him, then she glanced at the stack of documents laid out on top of the table in front of her. “Transferal of Shares.” She was dumbfounded. "I've gone through the contract, it’s safe to sign so go ahead.” Roland picked up a pen and handed it to her. "Roland, I..." "Sign it first, I’ll explain when we get home.” Isabel frowned and tried to protest. "I—" "Don't make me have to beg." Isabel did not know how to respond. Fine. She briefly scanned through the contract. The contract stated Decker’s agreement to transfer the remaining forty percent of his shares in Rockwell Corporation to her. Roland must have talked to the shareholders of Rockwell Corporation about this as well. They all regarded Isabel with polite smiles. Isabel had flipped through the final page of the document. She signed her name on one of the marked-out sections. She proceeded to sign all thr

    They ended the call shortly after that. Isabel glanced at Martha and was hesitating if she should break the news right away. Martha seemed to have sensed her staring and suddenly turned to her with a flash of concern. "Isabel, what's wrong?" Isabel took a deep breath and broke the news. "Auntie, Master Rockwell just passed away." Martha's eyes widened. After a lengthy silence that lasted more than ten seconds, she started to break out in tears. She covered her face with her hands and expressed amid bouts of tears mixed with laughter, “Wonderful! About time! I hope he enjoys life in the underworld. God knows that someone like him will never deserve a spot in heaven!” Isabel did not know whether she should celebrate with Martha or console her. Soon, Martha began to collect herself. She briefly wiped away her tears and joyfully took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let’s go shopping! I’m in such a good mood today, I’m going to go on a shopping spree!” "Okay. But Roland w

    Isabel held onto Roland's hand firmly during the entire drive home after leaving the hospital. It was because Roland’s hands were cold and rigid. Isabel sat with him and tirelessly rubbed his hand to keep them warm. After one hand was warm, she would shift her attention to the other. By the time she managed to warm the other hand, the original hand would turn cold again. She decided it was easier to take both of his hands and caress them with the warmth of her palms. Roland looked at her with a gentle glow deep within his eyes. “Thank you, Isabel,” he said softly. Thank you for loving him, and for sticking by his side all this time despite circumstances. Isabel smiled. “I’m just warming your hands, it's no big deal. Still, you’re welcome." Roland smiled faintly and left it at that. Soon, his hands began to warm up off of the heat of Isabel’s palms. When Isabel felt that his hands were no longer freezing, she prepared to pull her hand away. That was when

    Decker looked nothing like his usual self. The pompous, arrogant man who held himself far above others and who expected everyone around him to kiss up to him because he was superior to them all. It was as if he had been plunged not only to Earth but a pile of swamp. He had completely lost his usual grace. Isabel said crossly, "Decker, have you gone mental? Is everything going on too much for you?” “Yeah, could you help me?” he said with a coy smile, “Just one hug should be enough to take care of it all.” Isabel rolled her eyes. Without warning, he suddenly braced himself and lunged right at Isabel, stepping past Brandon who was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Isabel barely had time to react. Just when it seemed like his hand was about to graze Isabel, a long pair of arms seized Isabel from behind and jerked her backward. It was swiftly followed by a long, muscular leg shooting outward right next to Isabel. Thump! Decker was kicked to the ground.

    "How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him. "Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?” What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation? She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.” Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?" “He proved his worth.” Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, “He passed the interviews himself. I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.” "

    "I never meant to kill him! Roland, you have to believe me. Why would I still try to deceive you when I’m in this state?” “In that case, you can go ahead and explain things to him in the afterlife.” Master Rockwell was taken aback by this, his demeanor tightened. "You...you..." Roland looked at him calmly. "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. It was Grandma and my parents who raised me. They instilled morals and virtue into me and made sure I’d grow into a decent man.” Master Rockwell was briefly relieved to hear this, but before he could rid himself of his trepidation, Roland continued in a dark voice, "But I won’t forget about you and Decker bribing all those media outlets to defame Isabel. I know you manipulated the stock prices to try to kick me out of the corporation. I’ll make sure to settle our score through the legal system.” If convicted guilty, they would have to rot in prison. “Roland… listen to me, Roland. Decker is your uncle. If you want revenge, you can come

    Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes. When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed. After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave. Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel. “Roland, Isabel, please have a seat.” Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say." Isabel stayed silent. A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I’m a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!” Isabel frowned. She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state t
