Chapter 1231 She lay still and allowed the breeze to wrap her with chilliness. Her tears uncontrollably trickled down
the edge of her eyes.
The man obviously used her as a tool to vent his sexual desires.
At Carter Residence, Westchester City, Odell grabbed his phone and went to the balcony after his wife practically
shoved him out of bed.
Sylvia followed him to the balcony with a worried heart.
After the call, she asked, “How‘s Sherry?”
Odell furrowed his brows. “My men were arranged to work in other places. They are not in the Stocktons‘
residence, so they have no updates on her.” Sylvia‘s eyes shrunk in shock. She asked, “They were all transferred
somewhere else?”
“Mm–hmm. John might have found out that they are my men.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe depressing news fueled Sylvia‘s anxiety. “He‘s as cunning as a fox!”
Odell walked to her and hugged her into his arms. He
whispered, “He used a few years to become the richest man in Glenchester, so he must have his ways. Don‘t worry.
I‘ve already arranged for more men to infiltrate the place. We‘ll get an update soon.” Sylvia simply hummed a reply
since there was nothing else she could do at the moment.
Sherry returned to her passive days of eating and sleeping. Queenie and Hailey visited her two days later, probably
worried that she might be bored. They appeared outside the window and called out to her, “Sherry, we brought you
some books. Maybe they can help you kill some time.”
The books were placed in a box and tied to a rope.
Hailey held the box while Queenie swung the other end of the rope and tossed it up to the window.
Sherry swiftly caught the rope and started to pull the box up. Inside the box was a about some school
romance, and a few other smaller boxes of pastries.
As her eyes gleamed gratefully, she said, “Thanks.” Queenie grumbled, “Hmph. It‘s nothing. I just don‘t want you to
die of boredom.”
Sherry curled her lips at her and started munching on the pastries.
Eventually, Queenie‘s sulk faded when she saw Sherry munching on the pastries she brought. She then subtly
nudged Hailey, giving her the signal to speak.
Hailey immediately said, “Sherry, try to stay out of trouble and stop making Master John mad.”
Sherry‘s gaze went cold. She did not respond to Hailey‘s suggestion. In response , Hailey sighed. “Read a book.
We‘re leaving now. We‘ll come to visit tomorrow.”
The two of them had one last glance at her before leaving the premises.
As soon as they walked out of the employees‘ quarters, Shannon came out from behind the tree outside the gate.
She looked toward Sherry‘s window.
Sherry looked miserable in her wretched state. Her hair was messy, her shirt was not properly worn, and she

Her wretched state did not enlighten Shannon at all, Quite the opposite, Shannon‘s gaze turned cold as she
clenched her fists tightly. It had been half a month since John came back to her. Ever since John caught Sherry
meeting Mason, he left that afternoon and never came back.
There were a few times when she caught John‘s presence
at the employees ‘ quarters . All she could do was watch from afar, and she could not even bring herself to speak
to him. The man would go to the employees‘ quarters every day, yet he refused to go back to his legitimate wife.
The first thing he did every time he came here was go to Sherry‘s room. He would leave after that, and he would
not even visit Madam Stockton.
On top of all that, the most important thing would be the possibility of Sherry getting pregnant after sleeping with
John multiple times.
“Shannon? What are you doing here?”
Suddenly, Julie‘s voice came from the back. Shannon recovered her composure and turned around with a smile. “I
haven‘t seen Sherry for a while, so I thought I‘d visit.” Julie smiled. “I have something to discuss with Aunt
Emerence. Why don‘t we go in together?”
