Julie greeted him warmly, “Welcome home, John.”

John flashed a quick smile at her, then he walked past her and marched straight for Caprice.“Daddy...” Caprice chirped and put her arms out toward him.

John obliged and took her into his arms. He looked around and asked, “Where’s your Mommy?”Julie informed, “Sherry said she has work to do.”

Madam Stockton glanced at her.

Queenie spoke up, “Brother, we just got back from a shopping trip with Caprice. Sherry wanted to let Caprice spend more timewith Mother, so she entrusted Caprice to us.”

John turned to Madam Stockton.

Madam Stockton did not know what to say. She was reluctant to show any form of goodwill toward Sherry, but she was.not goingto refute what Queenie had said since it was the truth.

John smiled and let it be, “Caprice misses me, so I'll be taking her for now.”With that, he walked away.Queenie followed him into the house.

Madam Stockton remained planted in the same spot. She wore a lingering look in her eyes as she watched Caprice beingcarried off.

Julie went up to her, sighed, and mumbled what sounded like a complaint, “It’s still early. Why can’t he let Caprice stay with youfor a while longer?”

Madam Stockton felt the same way, but she was not going to hold it against her son and said, “He hasn’t seen Caprice for theentire day, it’s only natural that he would miss Caprice.”

Julie smiled, and casually pointed out with a laugh, trying to play it off as a joke, “He barely has time to talk to his mother! He justtakes Caprice and goes. He must be going to see Sherry.”

Madam Stockton’s expression suddenly became grave when she heard this.

Julie caught the look in her eyes and asked, “Is there something wrong? Was it something | said?”Madam Stockton hesitated, then brushed it off. “No, nothing.” With that, she walked

back to her room.

Julie followed her.

Madam Stockton turned around briskly and waved her off. “Stop following me. do your own thing.” Her voice was harsh.

1. e. justJulie frowned and answered politely, “Alright, let me know if you need anything at all.”

She then stopped following the woman. She watched Madam Stockton retreating to her room. After she was out of sight, heranxiety began to rise.

Her previous remark should have incited Madam Stockton to complain about how unfair Sherry was being, but it did not work.Also, what was with that glare?

What had gone wrong?It seemed like ever since Caprice visited Madam Stockton and had dinner with her last night, something changed.

After Madam Stockton returned to her room, she called the old maid to her side. She told the maid about what Julie said back inthe garden.

After she finished relaying her tale, she asked, “Do you think she said all those things intentionally?”

The maid considered it fora moment and shared her thoughts, “Ma’am, Ms. Weiss is a very smart person. She isn’t one to justblurt things out without giving them proper consideration.”

“Then, why is she saying all these things? Is she intentionally trying to rile me up?” If not for Sherry wisely deciding to let Capricespend more time with her over the past two days, Julie’s words just might have had an effect on her. She might have beenirritated enough to begin hatching ideas of booting Sherry out of the house.
