Chapter 1272 “Thank you.” John stepped toward the elevator after briskly thanking the receptionist.
Peter and a crew of bodyguards immediately followed after him.
The elevator door opened and John went inside. It took him to the sixth floor.
Meanwhile , inside a medical ward located on the second floor of the building where Sherry was having her
postpartum checkup. The doctors had just finished up and she was preparing to leave when a young nurse ran into
the ward.
She was here to gossip. “I heard them mentioning that there was this man that looked like a supermodel who had
just come here. He had a whole group of men with him and mentioned something about coming here to pick up his
wife who had a bit of a fallout with him. He‘s super handsome and charismatic. They said that he threw a ten
million dollar check on the receptionist‘s table!
“Oh my god, you‘re kidding!”
A group of young nurses flocked together to gossip about the mysterious man.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven the medical staff and some of the other patients present in the ward joined in on the gossip.
“What does he look like? Like a celebrity on TV?”
“Yeah! Isabelle at the front desk said that she had never seen such a handsome man in her entire life. He was
wearing a white shirt and a pair of slim–fit trousers. He also had a pair of striking gold–framed glasses on. His skin is
fair like an angel‘s and his features look like something straight out of a painting. She said that he was nothing like
anything she had ever seen before.” “Wow, where is he? I want to see him!”
“I want to see him as well!”
“I think he went to the sixth floor. Let‘s go to the lobby. He should be heading back down any moment now.”
“Sure, sure.”
With that, they all rushed outside in a hurry. Sherry hid behind the door, visibly shaking and had turned pale. White
shirt, black trousers, and gold–framed glasses, and a mysterious man who had a group of followers tailing him
everywhere he went.
Who else could it be apart from John?!
Ding: The elevator stopped on the sixth floor.
The doors opened swiftly, and they were greeted by a bright corridor.
The man leading the charge straightened his collar and took a large step forward as he was smiling.
Room 606 was just down the corridor on the right side.
He arrived at the entrance in just several strides and stopped in front of the door.
Peter immediately stepped forward and knocked on the door several times.
Shortly after, they heard footsteps coming from inside.
John could feel his hands trembling with excitement. He fixed his gaze intently on the door that was slowly being
nudged open.
Creak.
The door was opened from the inside and the person that greeted them was a young man dressed casually.
John squinted.
“Master Stockton?” Ben cried out, the surprise in his voice was impossible to miss. His immediate thought

door open. Several bodyguards charged into the room and dissuaded any further resistance from Ben.
Ben turned pale and retreated a step back.
John smiled stoically and stepped into the room as if he owned the place. The room was basked in sunlight. He
swept a glance around the room and asked, “Where‘s Sherry?”
Ben stared at him warily and remained silent.
Right at that moment, the door to the bathroom opened, and out came Aunt Wanda with Caprice who had just
changed into a fresh set of diapers. “Ben, what‘s the matter? Who is it—?” She had barely finished her sentence
when she noticed the unexpected group of men flanking her on all sides. They cast a predatory look on the child in
her arms. 1 Her eyes flashed with alertness and she held onto Caprice tightly in response. John‘s eyes gleamed as
well. He could even feel his body stiffening involuntarily. He strutted toward Aunt Wanda at once.
Aunt Wanda retreated warily.
She only managed to retreat several steps backward when the bodyguards stepped forward and stopped her.
There was nowhere to run.
Aunt Wanda held the child protectively and asked sharply, “Who are you people? What do you want?”
