Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 1788

Chapter 1788

John said soberly, “Yeah”

With that, Madam Stockton took Queenie and made her leave the room. Queenie was still trying

desperately to get a word in.

Sherry was blindsided by what happened.

She did not expect John to be so supportive, nor did she expect Madam Stockton to be so understanding.

After Madam Stockton and Queenie left, she turned to John and asked curtly, “You’ve been here long enough Haven’t you begun missing home?”

Glanchester was his base of operation, and most of his assets were in there as well.

He had spent a considerable amount of time in Coastrock, so it was not reasonable to expect him to spend much longer here.

“Peter and the others are keeping things in order for me. Besides, I can manage well enough remotely” He assured Sherry. “Don’t worry.”

She stated with a troubled expression, “My work is in Coastrock, I’m not leaving anytime soon.”

He smiled, his voice still gentle and reassuring. “I know, just focus on your work and don’t worry about the rest.”

Sherry tried to put things as bluntly as she could. “I’m saying that you’re free to head back if you have things you need to take care of. You don’t need to feel pressured to stay by my side.”

John smiled. “Alright, but I don’t have anything urgent to attend to.”

Peter was more than capable of holding down the fort.

He wanted to be wherever Sherry was. After finally winning her trust again, he was not going to allow himself to be separated from her again. He would not allow anyone to swoop in on her in his absence.

Sherry observed him. He spoke with lucidity and confidence, he had everything under control.

She gave in. “Alright.”

Meanwhile, in the living room.

After Madam Stockton took Queenie out of the bedroom, Queenie immediately protested. “Mom, why wouldn’t you let John take Sherry back to Glanchester?”

They belonged in Glanchester.

Madam Stockton said in a hushed, urgent voice, “Can’t you see that she doesn’t want to go back?”

Queenie was perplexed by this. “She’s made up with John, hasn’t she? Why wouldn’t she want to go back?”

There was an important meeting that required Sherry to attend in person

The meeting lasted until nearly noon.

After the meeting. Sherry thought of Madam Stockton and Queenie who were still at her place She hurried home so she could take them somewhere nice for lunch. She stepped into the house and mmediately noticed an assortment of steaming hot dishes laid out on the dining table

John was resting on the couch reading a book. He was dressed casually.

Queenie was watching cartoons with Caprice.

Madam Stockton emerged from the kitchen in an apron. She was balancing a bowl of soup in hand

Sherry was shocked by the display.

Upon noticing her, Madam Stockton smiled and motioned to the dining table. “Sherry, you came back just in time! I just finished making soup. Come on, have a seat and eat with us.”

“…Okay.” Sherry was amused by the full course laid out on the dining table.

Madam Stockton must have seen the entranced look in her eyes. She explained with a shade of embarrassment, “John ordered these from a restaurant. The soup is the only thing I made myself.”
