Chapter 956
When did she squirm? She just leaned on him.
Sylvia did not notice that something was off with him and merely hummed. Then, she asked, “How did you get John
to bring Sherry out?”
Although she only saw John for a moment in the afternoon, from Sherry‘s reaction, it was not difficult to see that he
had tortured her. John was probably a gentleman on the surface but was, in actuality, very perverted on the inside.
He had already imprisoned Sherry. How could he easily agree to take Sherry out to have dinner with them?
They walked into the elevator and went down.
Odell put his arm around her and said, “I said that Sherry and you were good friends, and you two haven‘t seen
each other for a long time, so I asked if he could bring her out to have dinner with us.”
“He agreed to that?”
“Yeah.” Seeing her face of disbelief, he curled his lips. “I haven‘t finalized the cooperation with him yet. He‘s a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsmart businessman, so he won‘t say no.”
Sylvia‘s eyes lit up. She almost forgot that this man was the head of Westchester City‘s Carter Corporation. His
ability was certainly no worse than John‘s.
She asked again, “Did you arrange all that when you were on the
phone with him in the study this afternoon?”
“Yeah.”
Sylvia pouted. “If I had known earlier, I wouldn‘t have asked Zach for help. I would‘ve told you directly.”
The matter could have been solved with just a phone call, but she actually went to such great lengths to climb over
the wall at John‘s house. Other than failing to rescue Sherry, she even made Odell angry. It was really not worth it.
As she spoke, she pressed herself in his arms subconsciously, wrapping one hand around his waist.
Odell‘s eyes flickered as his thin lips curled up.
At that moment, the elevator stopped on the first floor.
As he put his arm around her and walked out, he said, “The reason why he agreed to bring Sherry out so easily is
also thanks to you breaking in and seeing her today.”
Sylvia looked at him in confusion. “What do you mean?”
“If you hadn‘t gone in, I wouldn‘t have been sure that he had Sherry under house arrest. However, since you and I
both saw Sherry in front of him, he couldn‘t refuse to bring her out even if he didn‘t want to.”
“Oh.” Sylvia understood.
Ten minutes later, Sylvia rode with him to an authentic local restaurant in Glanchester.
The restaurant seemed to be booked out. When Sylvia and Odell went in, they only saw the waiter who was smiling
at them. John and Sherry had already arrived and were sitting in an elegant
room.
John wore a clean white shirt and slim–fitting pants. Sherry also looked a lot neater than she had in the afternoon.
Her hair was draped over her shoulders, and she wore a white dress. However, her face looked a little pale.
When Sylvia and Odell came in, John showed a smile and stood up while holding Sherry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSherry also lit up the moment she saw Sylvia.
“Syl!”
“Sherry!”
Sylvia immediately ran toward Sherry and hugged her.
John had no choice but to let go of Sherry‘s hand and walk toward Odell. He extended a hand toward him with a
smile.” Good evening, Master Carter.”
Odell and he exchanged a handshake. “Sorry for the wait.”
“We just arrived as well.”
After the greetings, the two of them looked over toward Sylvia and Sherry.
They had finished hugging and were sitting together on the other side of the table, hand-in–hand. Seeing Odell and
John look over, they both looked at the men with wary eyes.
