Sherry frowned instinctively.

This was the same courtyard complex where she had to spend a year as a prisoner and hostage.

Why were they stopping here?

The bodyguard stepped out of the car and opened the door on John’s side.

John peered at Sherry before getting out of the car.

Sherry was just about to get out of the car with Caprice still sleeping soundly in her arms when she heard approaching footsteps.

From inside the car, she quickly identified Madam Stockton and Julie.

Madam Stockton was wearing a cashmere shawl, dressed as extravagant as ever.

Julie had changed a little from how Sherry remembered her. She wore a light pink long coat and rested her hair over her shoulders. On the whole, she seemed more fashionable and younger compared to her previous style.

Madam Stockton walked up to John and asked, "John, where's Caprice?”

John answered with a frown.

Madam Stockton did not wait for an answer and leaned inside the car to find Caprice.

    By ex-wife, was he referring to Shannon? Sherry frowned. Jason continued, "Madam, it all happened shortly after you escaped three years ago. Right after the previous wife was also taken away by the police, Master Stockton ordered to have the entire courtyard razed to the ground.” Sherry seemed intrigued by this. Shannon’s vile actions must have left a deep impression on John. It made sense that he would want the place torn down to purge the place of its bad memories. Certainly, it had nothing to do with Sherry. She had nothing further to add and proceeded to bring Caprice into the house. … Meanwhile, outside the courtyard was an agitated Madam Stockton who was nearly hyperventilating. She was trying to steady her breathing with a palm against her chest while Julie tried to calm her down as well. The two of them were staring red-faced at John, waiting for an explanation. "You… why did you get engaged with her without telling us? Don’t you think these are thing

    "No, I can't let this woman ruin his reputation. I have to figure something out,” Madam Stockton said defiantly and marched back to her room. Julie was left all by herself, cold and harsh wind beat against her. She clenched her teeth and looked venomously in the direction of the courtyard before walking away. … Meanwhile, Sherry had just walked into the house and met Aunt Wanda. "Miss Sherry?” Aunt Wanda exclaimed and did not hide her surprise at seeing her. Sherry was just as excited to see her, she smiled radiantly and greeted her. Sylvia informed her that John employed Aunt Wanda and brought her to Glanchester with him after he took Caprice. She must have contributed greatly to Caprice’s current healthy state. Sherry greeted her kindly and followed her into Caprice's room. The child’s room was painted bright pink, it looked like something out of a fairy tale. It was decorated with all varieties of adorable plush toys of all kinds of sizes. Her bed

    Sherry's eyes flickered and she said with determination, "I came back for Caprice so I’ll go wherever she goes.” Aunt Wanda admired her love for her daughter, then she asked, “You and Master Stockton…” “We got engaged, we just got the marriage certificate today.” Aunt Wanda seemed thrilled by this. Sherry quickly added, “We only got engaged for Caprice’s sake. The marriage is nothing more than a formality and it would have never happened if not for Caprice. Please don’t think that anything is going on between us.” Aunt Wanda seemed confused by this queer arrangement. Standing stealthily by the doorway, the man's expression darkened, and a crook smile formed on his lips. A formality? Nothing going on between the two of them? What nonsense! … Sherry chatted with Aunt Wanda for quite a while. At one point, Caprice woke up. She slowly pried her sleepy eyes open and muttered sleepily, “I want to poop.” "Okay, let me take you to the toilet alright?” Aunt W

    Queenie immediately glared at Sherry. However, she did not scold Sherry and rushed over to hug her instead.Fortunately, there was a wall behind Sherry. Otherwise, she would have been tackled to the ground.After hugging Sherry for a while, Queenie released her and looked at her, saying, "Sherry Fowler, you're the president of Sager Corporation. Why do you still run your mouth so annoyingly?"Sherry grinned at her. "You're already three years older. Why do you still dress so childishly?"Her curly blonde hair and her puffy skirt were quite beautiful, but it was a style that only younger girls would pull off.Queenie's expression shifted. She planted her hands on her hips in anger. "Will it kill you to stop snubbing me for one second?""Hehe..." Suddenly, a peal of childish laughter sounded.Sherry quickly turned around.The man, who had been sitting inside, had arrived at some point. His slender figure stood by the door frame as he looked at them with a smile in his eyes.Mean

    Queenie said there were other fun things to do at her place.The little girl was also tired of playing with the excavator, so Sherry carried her and followed Queenie to her courtyard.There were indeed many 'fun' things here. There were all kinds of limited edition plush toys, dolls, beautiful action figures, and so on.Sherry just placed Caprice down, and the girl beelined toward the pile of toys. She lifted the hem of her shirt and reached out to the group of dolls. When she saw something she liked, she simply took it without saying a word and placed it on her shirt.Sherry was stunned.It was clear that Caprice's actions were well practiced.She looked at Queenie who had her arms crossed. Her expression was like a rich person declaring, "Take whatever you want."After a while, Caprice only stopped moving when she could not fit any more toys on her shirt. She walked back to Sherry and looked at her with wide eyes.Sherry asked, "Do you want Mommy to help you carry these back?

    Queenie's gaze lit up, and she said, "I don't have anything to do at the moment. Since you want me to go so much, I'll go with you guys."...It was very cold outside.Sherry hugged Caprice tightly after they walked out of Queenie's place.Queenie followed them.When they reached a corner, they met Julie head-on.Julie smiled at Sherry, but the smile that hung on Sherry's lips instantly disappeared. She glanced coldly at Julie then simply walked past her with Caprice in her arms, not paying attention to Julie.The smile on Julie's face stiffened.Queenie sensed something was off and said with a smile, "Julie, I'm going to John's place tonight, so I won't be having dinner with you and Mom."Julie smiled and said, "Okay."However, after Queenie and Sherry went far away, her face instantly turned cold again.'Sherry Fowler, what is it about you that makes John care so much about you? You're from such a poor background. How dare someone like you dare to ignore me?!'...Meanwh

    The little girl was just so cute!Sherry could not resist her and kissed her face twice again.Standing not far away, Queenie was dumbfounded. After all, Caprice did not like to be too close to people and rarely let people hold her, let alone kiss her.'The girl will definitely be unhappy with how frantically Sherry is kissing her.'However, just as she had that thought, Caprice pouted her lips and softly pressed a kiss to Sherry's cheek as well.Queenie was speechless."Mommy, I'm hungry," Caprice said to Sherry.Sherry immediately picked her up. "Mommy will get you something delicious to eat."She walked over after saying that. When she passed Queenie and saw the latter's shocked expression, she could not help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"Caprice's large eyes also looked at her curiously.Queenie snapped back to her senses. "N-nothing."Sherry carried Caprice out.The snacks were all freshly made on the day itself. There were a few plates of delicious morsels on the

Unexpectedly, she saw him right as she turned around.He came out of the study at some point and had been eavesdropping for an unknown amount of time. His posture was lazy as he smiled languidly.Sherry's brows wrinkled.What was that look supposed to mean?Queenie also saw him and asked with a smile, "Are you done with work?""Yeah." John pursed his lips and said to her, "Stay for dinner later."Queenie's eyes lit up. "Okay!"Although she did not intend to go back for dinner, it was different when her brother personally asked her to stay. After all, he had not spoken t

    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
