Chapter 1431
Sherry’s hands hung by her side, unmoving. She kept silent while pursing her lips.
Not long after, Julie smiled and said, “What’s wrong? Is it inconvenient to call your friend?”
The crowd suddenly burst into ridicule. “Heh… She must be full of nonsense. She doesn’t even know any friends of
Young Master Sager’s.”
“Yes, there’s no need to ask. She must have stolen the invitation.”
“She even dared to steal the invitation that Madam Stockton gave to Young Master Sager. She has a lot of guts.”
Sherry clenched her fists and looked toward John.
They were almost two meters apart. John’s posture was lazy as he stood there, looking at her. The emotions in his
eyes were deep. She could not understand them.
Sherry pursed her lips and said to him seriously, “I really borrowed this invitation. I didn’t steal it.”
John curled his lips, but his smile did not reach his eyes. Then, do as Julie said and prove that you borrowed the
invitation.”

John’s eyes darkened as he repeated, “Then, do as Julie said.”
Sherry’s chest felt suffocated. It was enough that Madam Stockton and Julie pretended not to know her, but he had
clearly seen her earlier! He had even let her go.
Why was he making things hard for her now? Did he really want to send her to the police station?
“You damned man!” She could not stand it anymore and shouted, “Believe it or not, I borrowed this invitation !”
John smiled and pursed his lips.
The large banquet hall was silent in an instant.
Julie and Madam Stockton were stunned.
The surrounding people’s eyes widened. Not only did she shout at him, but she also called him a damned man. She
actually dared to scold him!
The crowd looked cautiously at John again.
He looked as elegant as usual with a faint smile at the corner of his lips. There was no hint of anger.
Could it be that… they knew each other?
Just as they began to ponder the relationship between John and Sherry, John opened his mouth. “There’s no need
to call the police.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
Julie and Madam Stockton frowned.
Sherry looked at him happily.
John glanced at her and smiled. “Tie her up and send her straight to the police station. Tell them that she not only
stole the invitation but also insulted and slandered me.”
The moment those words were spoken, Sherry’s hands were pinned down by two security guards. She struggled
with all her might but could not break free. She could only glare at him coldly. “You damned bastard! I really didn’t
steal the invitation. Tell them to let me go!”
John smiled wickedly at her. “I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it.”
Sherry was speechless and furious. “What do you mean I didn’t cherish it? I told you that I borrowed the invitation. I
didn’t steal it! Why won’t you believe me?!”
John took a step closer to her and pushed the frame of his glasses up with one hand. His gaze turned colder. “I also
want to believe you, but not a word of truth comes out of your mouth.”
Sherry gnashed her teeth with anger. “You should just say it straight if you’re angry at me and want to give me a

John simply smiled.
Besides Madam Stockton and Julie, everyone else was
confused.
Why did their conversation sound like they knew each other?
However, the man’s cold voice interrupted their thoughts. He looked at Sherry and instructed the guards, “Take her
to the police station.”
“Yes, Master Stockton.”
The two guards dragged Sherry out.
Sherry was no match for them as they lifted up her entire body. She could only glare at John with eyes red with
resentment.
His slender figure elegantly stood in place. His lenses covered the dark look in his eyes, but Sherry saw him curl the
corners of his lips. His expression seemed quite pleasant.
As she was being carried out, she heard a relative of the Stockton family ask him, “Do you know her, John?” He
looked her straight in the eye and said, “No, I don’t.”
