Chapter 1633Chapter 1633
John cast a glance at Caprice who was now sleeping soundly and stated firmly, “I’m not hungry.”
“You have to eat something even if you’re not hungry. You’re the only one Caprice has left, you can’t be
irresponsible and risk your health.”
John objected with a frown. “She still has her Mom.”
As long as Sherry’s body was not found, there was still a sliver of hope that she was still alive!
There was plenty of evidence of her having an iron will for survival. She had survived Shannon’s
attempt on her life three years ago. Who was to say that she did not manage to slip away from the
burning house. just in time?
Madam Stockton felt a sharp sting in her nose and nearly teared up. She held herself back and tried to
persuade John again. “If she’s still alive, then all the more reason for you to eat! You have to recover
your strength to continue searching for her.”
John yielded a little. “Leave it there, I’ll eat in a bit.”
He had no appetite yet.
“Alright, I understand.” Madam Stockton was glad that at least John promised to eat, so she turned to
Emerence.
Emerence proceeded to put the food on the dining table and covered it.
They sat silently in the living room.
At one point, John’s phone rang again.He quickly answered the call, “What is it? Any update?”
The head bodyguard informed, “We searched the perimeter of the house and couldn’t find any signs of
Mrs. Sherry. We’ll expand the ring and continue looking.”
John was relieved to hear this, even the tension on his brows eased a little. “Alright, continue giving me
an update every ten minutes.”
“Alright.”
With that, he put away his phone.
He rose from the couch with Caprice and went to the dining table.
He continued balancing Caprice with one arm while he picked up a spoon with his free hand and forced
himself to eat something.
Emerence stood watchfully nearby and flashed a faint, comforting smile toward Madam Stockton.
Madam Stockton had happy tears in the corner of her eye and was smiling as well.
There was a tiny chance that Sherry was alive, but they all hinged their hopes on that tiny chance.
Madam Stockton blamed herself for all of this. If she had not objected to Sherry and John being
together all those years ago, their relationship would not have been as turbulent as it turned out to be.
Perhaps things would have turned out much better.
She should not have let herself be fooled by Julie for all these years. She had never even suspected of
Julie being such a wretched and cunning person. She was completely blindsided. She should have
never slighted Sherry just because of the circumstances Sherry was born in.
Coastrock.Spring had just rolled around, and there was a comforting warmth in the air.
Coastrock was not as much of a metropolis as Glanchester, but what it lacked in modernity it more than
made up for it in the department of vast nature and greenery.
Carl and Sherry landed in Coastrock in the private jet. A doctor joined them on their flight and tended to
Sherry’s wound as best as he could. As soon as they stepped off the plane, she was rushed to the
hospital at first notice and was cared for by a crew of doctors with the best medical facilities available in
the city.
They conducted a full body check on her and were very thorough. All of her wounds were disinfected
and bandaged properly.
Due to the severity of her injuries and accumulated malnutrition, she was sent to the emergency room
for treatment. After the procedures were completed, she was sent to the best private ward available.
She was going to have to rest here for quite a while.
At the moment, she was sitting next to the window.
From the window, she had a wonderful view of the sea. The windows were open and she could feel the
chilly sea breeze.
She felt safe and comfortable.
Creak.
The door leading into the ward was gently pushed open.
Sherry turned to see who had entered.Carl walked into the room, suave as always. He was wearing a Persian blue shirt with a pair of
sunglasses propped over his head.
He met Sherry’s eyes and smiled warmly, even cocking his eyebrows playfully.
“Sherry, it’s been a while, did you miss me?” He drew closer to Sherry and revealed a box of food that
he bought for her.
novelbinSherry answered blankly, “What are you talking about? It’s only been an hour.”
Carl clicked his tongue and jested. “Oh, come on. Lighten up, will you?”
He set the box of food on a side table and gestured. “Eat while it’s hot, I had to wait in line for half an
hour to buy this for you.”
