Chapter 1423

An ungrateful and despicable woman like her deserved to be told off right in her face.Sherry sunk into sleep and when she woke up, she felt the first wave of fever settling in.She felt like she was burning all over.

She had to go to the hospital again.

After she was prescribed medicine, she returned to the hotel.

After three days of intensive rest, the fever finally subsided.

She was feeling better physically and finally feeling clear- headed for once.

She took a car to the Stockton Tower in the city center.

She stayed in the area until nighttime.

Around evening, the employees slowly flocked out of the entrance of the building and headed back to theirrespective homes.

Sherry stared at the door.

After most employees had left, she finally recognized a

familiar figure.

The man was wearing a slim suit with Caprice in his arms.

as usual. He was heading toward the parking lot.

Peter and a bodyguard were following him closely.

Sherry stared at the girl in his arms.

She could not get a good look from where she was but she could vaguely make out that Caprice was sleeping. Carried in thearms of her father, she seemed very much so at

peace.The look in Sherry’s eyes softened. The built-up

frustration and exhaustion over the past few days were instantly washed away.Suddenly, the man came to a halt.

Sherry quickly ducked into a dark corner where she would

not be seen.

After a while, she slowly pried her head around the

corner. She saw that John had already gotten into the car along with Caprice and the car was slowly pulling out of the parkinglot.

She sighed and approached the side of the road. She planned to call a taxi to take her back to the hotel.

Around the same time, several middle—aged men emerged from the building as well. They were in the middle of a rather intenseconversation, it seemed like

they were high-ranking members of the organization.Sherry overheard their conversation while she was waiting for her taxi on the side of the road.“Madam Stockton is going to be hosting a party at the Glanchester Hotel tomorrow night, are you going?”

“Of course, it’s Madam Stockton we're talking about. | heard that all the friends and relatives of the Stocktons are invited as well.Since she was so kind to invite us, she must see us as part of her close circle as well. I’d drop anything to attend the party.”

“Hehe... that’s true.”

Sherry was alarmed by the conversation she had overheard.

Tomorrow was Saturday, and Madam Stockton was going to host a party at Glanchester Hotel at night? She was inviting all thefriends and relatives of the family?

John must be present as well.

Since he was going to be present, one would only assume

that Caprice would be there with him as well.

She wondered how she could sneak into the party.

Midnight.

The cold wind whistled over the city and beat against the windows panes.

Caprice was afraid of thunder, darkness, and strong winds that screeched in her ears.John got Aunt Wanda to give Caprice a bath first, he took a quick shower himself as well.

Shortly after he came out of the shower, Caprice, who was already dressed in pajamas and ready for bed, sprang toward himwhile crying out tenderly, “Daddy!”

John smiled and took her effortlessly into his arms and carried her to bed.

The girl pulled herself closer to him, smothered John with affection by burrowing her head into the crevice of his neck.John wrapped one arm around her.

He turned off the lights once he realized she had fallen asleep.

He had trouble falling asleep himself.

Why was that woman not making any moves? Why was she not trying to replace Caprice?
