Chapter 1079 Thud.
She crashed into his arms at once.
The strong smell of alcohol mixed with his breath rushed into her nostrils.
Sherry subconsciously pushed him
away. John pinned her hands behind her back, cupped her chin, and said, “I‘ll be leaving town at dawn
and will be back in about three days.”
‘He‘s leaving for three days?
‘Does that mean I won‘t have to see him for these three days?‘
Sherry was unable to control the excitement that appeared on her face.
John‘s eyes darkened.
“Are you that happy?” he asked.
She quickly restrained her joy and replied, “It‘s none of my business
whether or not you go on a business trip. What do I have to be happy about?”
“Heh, that‘s right. You‘re only my bed warmer anyway.”
“…Hah.” Sherry swallowed her anger and mimicked his
smile. “That‘s right. You‘re so bad in bed that if I wasn‘t your
bed warmer, you would‘ve been kicked out a long time ago.” Under the light, the smile lurking at the cor
ner of his mouth instantly disappeared.
However, in just two seconds, he smiled again and took off his glasses, tossing them to the side.
His pale and handsome face lowered to her eyes, and his lips pressed against hers, rubbing them toget
her as he said, “It seems I haven‘t been feeding you enough these days for you to have
that illusion.” Then, he suddenly tightened his grip.
There was a sharp pain in Sherry‘s waist, and her body was instantly pressed against his.
What followed was a wild and hellish storm.
It was not until dawn that calm returned to the room.
John got out of bed.
Sherry lay with her back to him and closed her eyes groggily.
In her blurry consciousness, she heard him say, “Be a good girl and stay home for the
next few days. I’ll check your homework when I return in three
days. If you fail to finish it, go to the garden and pull out all the weeds.
You‘ll only be able to stop after you‘re done.” Sherry thought she was dreaming and said, “F*ck you.”
John froze while in the middle of buckling his belt.
He
looked over and saw her limp appearance as if she had been hollowed out. He snorted , picked up his
coat, and walked out.
It was already afternoon when Sherry woke up.
There was a cold lunch on the table: toast and two small dishes.
She ate the food with two cups of hot water, then picked up the storage basket with the embroidery tool
s and went out to the courtyard. Sitting in the shade of a tree, she
picked up the needle and thread and began to embroider.
At the same time, an MPV stopped outside the gate of the Stockton residence.
Julie stood outside the gate. When she saw Shannon getting out of the car, she walked up and smiled.
“Ms. Shannon, unfortunately, Mom and Queenie suddenly received an invitation to visit a friend this aft
ernoon.
They already went out.”
Shannon‘s expression changed as she smiled back.” That‘s really unfortunate. Then, please
pass these gifts to
Madam Stockton for me. I had a friend abroad ship them over here. I
hope that Madam Stockton will like them.”
After saying that, she looked at the driver. The driver immediately came up with two exquisite
gift boxes.
Julie smiled and said, “I‘ll pass them to her. Thank you.”
She glanced at the butler.
The butler went up and took the two gift boxes from the driver.
Shannon then said, “Then I won‘t impose on you any longer. I‘ll come back to visit next time.”
“Wait.” Julie called out with a smile. “Although Mom isn‘t home, she instructed me to receive you before
only one to entertain you, you can come in and sit for a while.”
Shannon lit up and quickly said, “It would be my honor to be received by you. How would I dare to mind?
pleasantries and got in the shuttle car.
The car drove into the estate.
