Sherry smiled and apologized half–heartedly, “I got it, I got it.”
Queenie scoffed and turned her attention back to John on the phone. “Brother, you heard that as well. She doesn‘t even dare to oppose me these days.”
Sherry was speechless, but she resisted the urge to roll her eyes again.
Queenie hung up shortly after that. After hanging up the phone for a while, she muttered again, ‘Strange, he never calls me, so why is he suddenly calling me
to ask how I‘ve been doing?”

To think that Sherry had gotten so close with Queenie already… 1
Shortly after that, he put down his phone, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip from it.

Peter pushed open the door and entered with two boxes full of branded gifts.
“Sir, I have bought everything you requested the newly released limited edition items from each fashion line.” Peter set everything in front of John so he could study them.
