Chapter 1431
Sherry’s hands hung by her side, unmoving. She kept silent while pursing her lips.
Not long after, Julie smiled and said, “What’s wrong? Is it inconvenient to call your friend?”
The crowd suddenly burst into ridicule. “Heh… She must be full of nonsense. She doesn’t even know any friends of Young Master Sager’s.”
“Yes, there’s no need to ask. She must have stolen the invitation.”
“She even dared to steal the invitation that Madam Stockton gave to Young Master Sager. She has a lot of guts.”
Sherry clenched her fists and looked toward John.
They were almost two meters apart. John’s posture was lazy as he stood there, looking at her. The emotions in his eyes were deep. She could not understand them.
Sherry pursed her lips and said to him seriously, “I really borrowed this invitation. I didn’t steal it.”
John curled his lips, but his smile did not reach his eyes. Then, do as Julie said and prove that you borrowed the invitation.”
((
Sherry’s throat choked. “I’m not lying to you!”
John’s eyes darkened as he repeated, “Then, do as Julie said.”
Sherry’s chest felt suffocated. It was enough that Madam Stockton and Julie pretended not to know her, but he had clearly seen her earlier! He had even let her go.
Why was he making things hard for her now? Did he really want to send her to the police station?
“You damned man!” She could not stand it anymore and shouted, “Believe it or not, I borrowed this invitation !”
John smiled and pursed his lips.
The large banquet hall was silent in an instant.
Julie and Madam Stockton were stunned.
The surrounding people’s eyes widened. Not only did she shout at him, but she also called him a damned man. She actually dared to scold him!
The crowd looked cautiously at John again.
John simply smiled.
Besides Madam Stockton and Julie, everyone else was
confused.
Why did their conversation sound like they knew each other?
However, the man’s cold voice interrupted their thoughts. He looked at Sherry and instructed the guards, “Take her to the police station.”
“Yes, Master Stockton.”
The two guards dragged Sherry out.
Sherry was no match for them as they lifted up her entire body. She could only glare at John with eyes red with resentment.
His slender figure elegantly stood in place. His lenses covered the dark look in his eyes, but Sherry saw him curl the corners of his lips. His expression seemed quite pleasant.
As she was being carried out, she heard a relative of the Stockton family ask him, “Do you know her, John?” He looked her straight in the eye and said, “No, I don’t.”
