Chapter 1283 John‘s soul seemed to have left his body. He did not react even when the little girl cried for a long
time.
Sylvia quickly walked over. “John, is Caprice hungry? Check on her.”
Only then did he gaze down at Caprice. His expression changed. In a short while , he smiled at Caprice. “Don‘t cry,
sweetheart. Daddy is here.”
Then, he took out a pacifier and a milk bottle from the bag he was carrying. The little girl stopped crying after
sucking on the pacifier and cooed as she gurgled on the milk in his arms.
Sylvia pursed her lips.
Odell dragged Flint back into his arms and silently straightened his lips into a thin line.
Meanwhile , in Coastrock City, thousands of miles from Westchester, it was raining cats and dogs.
The raindrops pelted the ground mercilessly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSherry crouched by the roadside alone, her hands covering her face as she trembled all over.
After a while, a passerby kindly patted her shoulder.”
Miss, are you okay?”
Sherry immediately sniffled and raised her face. Her red and swollen eyes looked at the passerby, and she gave
him a crooked smile that looked even worse than if she was crying. She choked while saying, “I‘m fine. T–Thank
you.”
The passerby sighed. “It‘s raining heavily. You should find shelter from the rain and go home when it subsides. Don‘t
catch a cold.”
“Y–yeah.”
The passerby did not stay and walked away with his umbrella.
Sherry could not hold on and covered her face, crying again. She told herself not to cry anymore yesterday, but she
just could not control her tears!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and the more she tried to hold back her tears. However, her
mind could not help but conjure up Caprice‘s little face.
When thunder suddenly boomed in the sky, she finally broke down and sobbed loudly.
It was only when the rain abated and her tears dried up that she stood up. Her legs had gone numb long ago, and
her body was icy cold. She swayed unsteadily as she walked forward, but the light in her eyes was more determined
than ever. She
could not go on like this. She had to live well. No, she had to become even better, and then she would go back and
take Caprice back!
In the old Carters‘ residence, after Sylvia finished the call with Sherry, John fed Caprice and then carried her
outside.
Looking at the darkening sky, Sylvia frowned and said,” Master Stockton, it‘s very late now. Why don‘t you go back
tomorrow?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJohn looked at her with a smile. “Thank you for the consideration, Mrs. Carter, but other than being afraid of
strangers, Caprice also doesn‘t like unfamiliar environments. She‘ll keep fussing if she remains here, so it‘s better if
I bring her back.”
Sylvia pursed her lips and said nothing.
Not long after that, John left in his car with Caprice.
Sylvia sighed as she looked at his departing car. “Since he cares about Sherry so much, why did he hurt her like
that?
Odell held her in his arms. “Some people only learn to cherish something after they lose it.” Sylvia could not help
but look at him and ask with a smile, “Where did you learn that from?”
Odell looked at her fair face and grinned. “I realized it
myself.” Sylvia‘s eyes flickered , and she leaned against him and pursed her lips. She hoped that Sherry could take
care of herself outside while John looked after Caprice. She also hoped that Odell and her could stay like this
forever.
