Chapter 1779

Queenie smiled warmly, then she turned to Sherry.

Sherry recognized Queenie at last and was astounded. “When did you get here?”

Queenie beamed with joy. “Just this morning. I came here with my mother and Peter.”

“Is Madam Stockton here too?”

“Yeah, my mom is inside.”

As soon as she said that, Madam Stockton stepped out of the room and revealed herself.

She was dressed rather plainly, her hair tied back in a common ponytail. She looked thinner and frailer than when

Sherry last saw her.

Her lips quivered. It looked like she wanted to say something to Sherry but did not know how to start or where to

start.

Sherry seemed visibly affected to see Madam Stockton here.

When John was still in the intensive care unit, Peter had trouble reaching him at all, so he ended up contacting

Jason. It was Sherry who then took the phone and told him about John taking a knife for her to protect her.

Madam Stockton must have found out about everything that happened from Peter. Sherry was worried that Madam

Stockton still harbored resentment towards her. Even if she knew that what happened in the past was all an evil

ploy of Julie’s, she already had a poor impression of Sherry due to past events.

With this in mind, Sherry put Caprice down and handed the takeout container to her before urging her to go in,

“Caprice, why don’t you go inside with Aunt Queenie and give the food to Daddy?”

Caprice nodded obediently.

Sherry darted a glance at Queenie who nodded and took the hint. She took Caprice by her hand and lead

her into the ward.

Sherry looked at Madam Stockton and gestured politely. “Madam Stockton, let’s have a chat over here.”

Madam Stockton remained silent the entire time.

AS Sherry stepped to the corner, Madam Stockton followed after her.

Sherry approached some chairs and gestured. “Please, have a seat.”

Madam Stockton tucked her lips and told her with a tint of reservation in her voice, “Alright, sit with me, please.”

With that, she sat down. She was a bundle of nerves.

Sherry was slightly startled by the quiver in her voice, but she proceeded to sit.

Madam Stockton made to speak. There was a blank look on her face, and she still had trouble forming her

thoughts.

Sherry considered for a moment and asked stiffly, “Are you feeling better?”

“Much better.” Madam Stockton smiled politely. At last, she began to speak, “It’s all thanks to you saving me from

the burning car. If not for you, I wouldn’t even be alive and talking to you this moment.”

Sherry’s eyes became filled with emotions. She said with a faint smile, “No need, anyone would have saved you.”

“There’s more to it than that. I was very nasty toward you back then and was constantly trying to tear John away

from you.” Madam Stockton expressed with a tired sigh, “But you looked past all that and chose to save me.”

Sherry smiled and spoke sincerely, “You are John’s mother. I would do everything I can to save you.”

“Thank you. I just thought… What I did in the past was wrong. If it wasn’t for me, things would have gone much

better between you and John, and all those terrible things would not have happened.” After a pause, she continued,

“It was right for John to take that knife for you, especially considering how terribly he treated you back then. You

could even say he deserved it. Julie… that wretched woman almost killed you. I’m just glad that you managed to

make up with John after everything that happened.”

She grew emotional as she spoke and quickly reached for a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

Sherry was starkly surprised. She was not expecting such a heartfelt confession.

Before the start of their conversation, she assumed that Madam Stockton would tell her off again and warn her to

keep her distance from John.

It seemed like after Julie’s true nature was exposed, Madam Stockton came to realize how unjust she had been all

these years.

Sherry pursed her lips and tried to say something, but found herself at a loss for what to say.

It was around this point when Madam Stockton suddenly took out an intricate little red box from her purse. She

opened the box.

It contained an exquisite emerald bracelet with excellent craftsmanship. It looked like it had been well preserved for

many decades.

“Sherry, I want you to take this,” she said as she handed the bracelet over.

Sherry was very appreciative but kindly refused, “Madam Stockton, I know that you mean well but I simply can’t

take it. It’s too expensive.”

Madam Stockton explained with a smile, “This is a family heirloom passed down through generations. John’s

grandmother gave it to me a long time ago, and I think it’s time for me to pass it on to you.”

It was an heirloom passed down to the daughter-in-law.

Sherry was appalled by this. Still, she stood her ground. “I think you should keep it for now.”

It was all too sudden.

Madam Stockton seemed crushed to hear this. “You… you still can’t forgive John, can you? Is it impossible for you

to make up with him?”
