Queenie got up and left the room.
Julie then said to Emerence, “Aunt Emerence, | can take it from here. You should go get some rest too.”Emerence’s eyes flickered. She said, “Okay. I'll take a nap outside. Call me if there’s anything.”“Okay.”
Emerence finally went out.
The room returned to peace and quiet, but Julie’s expression turned cold and grim.
She walked closer to Madam Stockton.
Madam Stockton looked more or less the same as earlier, which was slightly
healthier than before.
Julie’s eyes flickered nervously. She said, “Mother?”
The only reply she got was silence. Madam Stockton did not react to her call.
Julie lowered herself and moved closer to Madam Stockton. Madam Stockton
looked a lot better now. It was as though she was sleeping instead of being in a vegetative state.Julie frowned and stared at her coldly. “Mother, are you really waking up?”
Her hands lifted uncontrollably and slowly moved towards Madam Stockton’s face. A hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes andshe tried to cover the lady’s nose and mouth.
Then, the noise of the door opening was heard.Startled, Julie immediately retracted her hands. She turned around and sawEmerence coming back in.
Emerence brought in a tray of tea and biscuits but was not looking at Julie. She asked with a smile, “Ms. Julie, | brought yousome tea and biscuits.” She looked and sounded natural. It was as though she had not seen what Julie was trying to do toMadam Stockton.
Julie secretly sighed a breath of relief and smiled at her. “Thank you, Aunt Emerence. Just put it there. You really should getsome rest.”
Emerence put the tray of tea and biscuits on the tea table by the bed and said, “I’m
old, so | don’t need to sleep that much. | took a nap in the afternoon. Maybe that’s why | can’t sleep now. I'll stay here andaccompany you.”
Julie pursed her lips. “Okay.”
Emerence sat on the chair by the door.
Julie had a few more glances at her to make sure she was not acting strangely.
Awhile later, knocks came from the door. Julie turned around and saw Emerence opening the door.
Mia came in and looked at Julie. “Madam, | have something to tell you.”
Julie’s gaze shifted. She looked at Emerence with a smile and said, “Aunt Emerence, please excuse me."Emerence said, “Okay. I'll be here. Don’t worry.”Julie smiled and followed Mia outside.
As soon as the door closed and Julie left, Emerence’s expression turned cold and grim. She got up immediately to check onMadam Stockton. Fortunately, nothing had happened to Madam Stockton.
She sighed a breath of relief, but the complicated expression lingered on her face.
After coming out from Madam Stockton’s room, Mia whispered into Julie's ears,” Madam, | followed Master Stockton around andfinally located Sherry.”
Julie asked, “Where is she being kept?”
“In a forest in the suburbs. It’s a twenty—minute drive from here. | hate a glance at the house, and it’s covered in moss. | think it’sbeen unoccupied for a long time,” Mia added.
“How’s Sherry doing?”
“There are three bodyguards watching her, so | couldn’t get in. | didn’t see her, but Master Stockton went in for ten minutes.When he came out, he looked grumpy and angry. Sherry must have pissed him off.”
Julie curled her lips.
