Chapter 1316

hapter 1316 Shermaine looked at his still—cold fa6ce and quickly smiled. “That's great. I’m relieved,” she smiled brightly andspoke in a gentle tone.

She looked remarkably similar to Sylvia.

Odell‘s gaze was stunned for a moment, then he said, “Go out and do your own thing. Don't bother about anything else.”The words that sounded comforting made Shermaine’s heart rejoice, but she simply said, “Yes, sir.”

Then, she walked out.

Odell immediately closed his eyes to rest.

Shermaine had saved Madam Carter before and did not seem to have any other thoughts about him. Sylvia must beoverthinking. He had always been strict with his subordinates , but he would not treat his staff who were serious about their workharshly.

When Secretary Ackerman returned, he would ask the HR department to arrange a more suitable position for Shermaine.Two more busy days passed.

That afternoon, at about two o'clock, a luxury MPV from Glanchester stopped outside the building entrance.

Ayoung man disembarked from the car.

The man wore a dark gray suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. His figure was straight and slender while his skin glowedunder the sunlight. His features were handsome, and he exuded a noble yet modest aura around him.

After getting out of the car, he did not rush in but instead reached out toward the rear seat.Then, he carried out a chubby two-year-old girl who was sleepingHe moved gently, fearing that any sudden movement would wake her up.

Then, he stepped into the building. When the woman working at the reception desk saw him, she immediately blushed ininfatuation, but she maintained her politeness and asked, “May | ask who you are looking for, sir?”

John smiled and said, “I'm looking for Master Carter.”(UL

“Do you have an appointment?” “I'm John Stockton from Glanchester. You can ask his secretary to pass on the message to

him.”John Stockton? The staff was confused for a moment12

before coming back to her senses, and she immediately called the president's secretary's desk.

Not long after that, she smiled and said to John, “Master Stockton, Master Carter would like you to wait for a moment. Hissecretary will come down to pick you up immediately.”

John smiled and nodded.

Soon, the elevator door opened, and a young woman in professional attire walked toward him with quick steps.11

John narrowed his eyes when he saw her pretty face. Shermaine quickly walked up to him and said with a smile, “This way,Master Stockton.” John glanced at her again. “Sure.” He carried Caprice toward the elevator.

Once inside , he looked at Shermaine again. His gaze was gentle and polite, but it was unspeakably sharp and oppressive. Aftera brief pause, Shermaine could not help but ask,” Master Stockton, why are you staring at me?” John glanced at her nametagand asked, “Are you and Mrs. Carter related?”

Shermaine's gaze flashed as she smiled back at him. “I've met Mrs. Carter a few times. She's an exceptional and beautifulwoman, but | have no relationship with her.”

John pursed his lips. His eyes fell on his daughter's cute little face, and he did not look at Shermaine anymore.Shermaine frowned. ‘Why is the richest man in Glanchester asking me this? Is it because Sylvia and | resemble each other?

Soon, the elevator reached the top floor. John walked out with Caprice in his arms and went straight to Odell's office door,pushing it open. Shermaine stood outside the door and did not follow him.

Odell was handling business in the office. When he heard the sudden movement of the door, he knitted his brows and lookedover with some displeasure. Upon seeing John, he asked, “Why didn’t you knock?"
