Chapter 1267 “Sure.” Sylvia handed the baby to her with a smile, then she took Isabel with her and left.
After they left, Sherry lifted her shirt and put the baby to her body. The baby stopped crying after that. Sherry
beheld the baby‘s pink and rosy cheeks and how satisfied she looked. Instantly, she smiled tenderly at the beautiful
sight.
Sylvia and Isabel stayed there until past noon. She was going to stay here for two more days, but Sherry insisted on
her hiding again. She said that the obstetric nurses could take care of her well enough.
With that, Sylvia left with Isabel, deciding that she would come to visit Sherry again the next morning.
After half an hour‘s drive, the car swerved into a familiar district and parked in front of the house. Sylvia and Isabel
stepped out of the car and walked into the house hand in hand.
To her surprise, John was still there.
The pair of father and son, Odell and Liam, were both reading in the living room. John was sitting on the other side
of the living room with Flint in his arms, playing
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith the toddler. When Sylvia and Isabel walked in, he turned to them and greeted them with a smile. 1
Sylvia immediately fixed an upset look on her face. Isabel also scoffed at the sight of the unwelcome guest.
John smiled and asked casually, “Mrs. Carter, what kind of paint were you shopping for that it took you an entire
day to find?”
Sylvia was caught off guard..
John stole a look behind the pair and asked curiously,” Where‘s the paint? Couldn‘t you find it?” Sylvia shot him a
look. “Master Stockton, shouldn‘t you be heading back?”.
John glanced at his watch. “Well, I do suppose it is time to go back.” With that, he rose with Flint in his arms.
Flint stretched his chubby arms in the direction of his mother.
John handed Flint to her before bidding farewell to Sylvia and Odell. “Master Carter, Mrs. Carter, I apologize for
intruding for the past two days. I‘ll be heading home now.”
Sylvia ignored him. Odell turned to Sebastian to say, “Sebastian , please see Master Stockton out for us.”
With that, Sebastian nodded and walked John out.
After making sure that John had left the property, Sylvia went to Odell with Flint in her arms. “Why did he stick
around till so late today? Was he waiting for me to come back before leaving?”
“Yeah, he must have known that you went to see Sherry last night.”
“But that‘s no reason for him to wait for us to return before leaving.”
“You were in a hurry when you left last night, so he was worried that meant something had happened to Sherry.
After seeing the two of you return without any signs of nervousness or fidgeting, he figured that was a sign that
everything was fine with Sherry and finally decided that he could leave in peace.”
Sylvia seemed mildly surprised by this deduction and had nothing more to say after that.
Isabel, who was listening to their conversation, remarked with an exasperated sigh, “Adult relationships are so
complicated.” With that, she leaned against her brother‘s shoulder, took out a tablet, and continued watehing her
favorite drama.
Meanwhile, in a silver car that was speeding down the highway, John was seated by himself in the backseat. He took
his phone out and dialed a number.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe call was quickly connected, and he promptly asked without any greeting, “Is everything ready?“
It was Peter‘s voice that answered him, “Just as you have instructed, I have men posted on the junction Mrs. Carter
passed by last night. If she passes by the same section again, my men will follow her and see where she goes.”
John reflected for a moment then said, “Sherry must be somewhere in that area. Have you men scout the area, go
to the hotels and residential areas, and see if there is any sign of her.”
“Yes, sir, right away.”
John then hung up. He looked at the view outside the window, a deep and introspective look surfaced behind the
lens of his glasses. It had been almost nine months.
‘Sherry, where have you been hiding?‘
Had she never thought of him this entire time? Did she not miss him at all?
