Chapter 1527 Julie was beside her when the call ended. She asked, âMother, what's wrong? What did Queenie say? Are they staying outside?â
âYeah. They are already resting.â
Julie carefully sized up Madam Stocktonâs expression. She furrowed her brows and said, âWhy didnât John say anything about it?â
âHmph! John is bedazzled by that woman again. Of course, sheâs badmouthing me in front of my son!â
âI'm sure she won't, Mother. Even if Sherry did say something, John is still your son, your own blood. He wonât abandon you.â
âHe won't abandon me, alright, but look at how many days has it been? Ever since | brought Sherryâs parents here, | didnât even get the chance to see Caprice, let alone hold her!â
The more Madam Stockton thought about it, the angrier she was. âItâs the weekend! They are off work, and they could've stayed home with Caprice. | thought | could spend some time with my granddaughter, but they just had to go out and spend the night outside! UGH!â Madam Stockton exhaled strongly.
Julie gently patted her back and calmed her down. âMother, please calm down. John went out because the Carters came over.â
Madam Stocktonâs furious expression eased when she heard Odellâs name. Although she disliked Sherry and Sylvia, Odell was the CEO of Carter Corporation, and John should spend more time with him for potential business opportunities.
Just when she calmed down for a bit, Julie said, âMother, you shouldn't be angry at Ms. Fowler as well. Sheâs Capriceâs biological mother. Even if she canât communicate with you well, she will take good care of Caprice.â
Madam Stocktonâs expression turned grim. âI know she'll take good care of Caprice, but sooner or later, the girl wonât even know that she has a grandmother!â
âlm sure that won't happen. Caprice only has one grandmother, and thatâs you. How could she forget about you?â
Madam Stockton retorted angrily, âEnough, stop talking about her in front of me. The more | think of that woman, the angrier |
am!â
Julie pursed her lips helplessly.
Madam Stockton waved at her and said, âItâs late. You should go rest.â
âAlright, Mother. You should rest early as well.â
âMm-hmm...â
Julie had one last worried glance at Madam Stockton before she went out.
As soon as she was out of the living room, the worried look was replaced by an evil grin. The old lady was the only person who could make Sherry leave John for good! The more the old lady resented Sherry, the faster it would happen!
The next day, when Sherry and Sylvia finally woke up, the kids in the other two rooms were already gone.
Only John and Odell were waiting for them in the living room.
Sherry asked, âDid Queenie go out with the kids?â
John looked askance at her as if she was asking the obvious.
Sherry glared back before she clung onto Sylviaâs arm and went out. The men also got up and followed their wives out.
The day flew by in a playful manner.
In the evening, the two families finally left Harmony Garden.
Both John and Odellâs cars were already waiting at the gate. The bodyguards and drivers were on standby.
Sherry hugged Sylvia tightly and said, âSyl, I'll go visit with Caprice when | have the time.â
Sylvia smiled. âAlright. I'll be waiting.â
John was beside Sherry when he spoke to Odell, âMaster Carter, itâs great having you over this time.â
Odell curved his lips. âThank you for having us.â
John answered, âItâs our pleasure to have you with us here for the weekend. Sherry and | are happy to see you and your family.
Please do visit us again in the future.â
