Chapter 990
Not long after Odell left, Sylvia came out of the room.
Sherry and John were in the living room.
Sherry went over to her side as soon as she came out.
John smiled. “Mrs. Carter, Master Carter has already gone home. You can stay here for a few days in peace. If
there’s anything you need, just tell Arnold, the butler.”
Sylvia was not overly fond of John either but she maintained her manners and thanked him. “I appreciate that,
Master Stockton.”
“Don’t mention it.” John got up and glanced at his watch.” Please excuse me as I have work to attend to.”
He then looked at Sherry. “Sherry, please look after Mrs. Carter.”
“I don’t need you to remind me of that,” Sherry retorted.
John’s gaze turned frosty for a second, but he maintained his smile and said to Sylvia, “Mrs. Carter.”
“Master Stockton.”

The moment his figure disappeared through the door, Shery cursed loudly, “That f*cking b*stard. Hypocrite!”
Sylvia merely watched in silence.
Chapter 990
After John left, Sylvia called Aunt Tonya and the kids.
Isabel and Liam answered the call instantly as they were worried about her.
Liam, who was not much of a talker, only asked where she was.
Isabel tried to persuade her to come back and even asked her why she had left.
Sylvia was honest with her kids this time. She told them she had only recovered the memories of the first three
years out of the nine.
Isabel knew what had happened in those three years and she had told Liam about it before, so the both of them
went quiet.
A while later, Liam said, “Mommy, I’ll take good care of Izzy and Flint, don’t worry.”
Isabel hummed in agreement.
The promise warmed Sylvia’s heart. “Izzy, Liam, you guys have to go to school, okay? I’ll be back in a few days.”
“We will,” they answered.
Sylvia then talked to Aunt Tonya and told her what happened. She did not want Aunt Tonya to worry about her.
Aunt Tonya simply told her to be careful and hung up.
Sylvia put her phone away, intending on looking for Sherry. However, she did not see her friend in the living hall.
“Sherry?”

She received no response.
Sylvia walked outside and continued calling her friend. “Sherry, where are you?”
“I’m outside!”
Sherry’s voice came from outside the yard.
Sylvia went out and saw Sherry sitting under a thick pine tree. She was holding a needle and thread as she
embroidered flowers onto a piece of cloth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSylvia’s eyes widened in shock.
Sherry waved at her. “Come over here. It’s cooler here.”
Sylvia reluctantly walked over and looked at the items in Sherry’s hands with disbelief.
Sherry quickly began to sew again as if she had to catch up on her project
Sylvia sat down beside her and watched her skillfully sew. She asked, “Since when did you pick up this hobby?”
Sherry was usually not patient enough to be good at crafts. She did not even have the patience to pick a dress
while shopping with her, let alone handle a needle and thread.
Sherry paused for a moment before she said, “I was bored here, so I picked up a hobby.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
Sherry hastened her sewing.
To Sylvia, it looked like Sherry was stabbing at someone with resentment instead of sewing something with love.
