Chapter 1004

Chapter 1004 The ember of hope in the girl’s eyes died off.

She put her hands on her hips and raised a brow at John. “So, you're the jerk who has been bullying Aunt Sherry? Do you know

you should love your girlfriend instead of bullying her?”

John’s expression froze.

Odell sternly said, “Izzy, stop it. Don’t be rude.”

Sylvia immediately pulled the little girl behind her back.

The girl pouted and sulked in silence.

Madam Stockton, Queenie, and Julie’s expressions turned cold.

Things got awkward until John chuckled. He looked at the girl with her puffy face. “I didn’t expect the girl to know so much about

relationships at this age.”

Isabel pouted. “Of course. I’ve seen almost all the romance dramas out there!”

Sylvia was rendered speechless, and even Odell felt embarrassed.

“Hmph. A girl her age calls a man a jerk because of romance drama? | think she’s learning all the bad things instead of the good

ones,” Queenie voiced her grievance behind John.

John turned around and glared at her. “Shut your mouth if you don’t know how to speak.”

He sounded rather cold and stern.

Madam Stockton and Julie immediately signaled Queenie to stop causing a scene.

They were unhappy with the girl’s remarks but dared not offend Odell.

Queenie’s gaze shrunk and sulked in silence.

John then turned to Odell. “Please excuse my sister for being a spoiled brat, Master Carter.”

Odell glanced at Queenie. He maintained a polite smile and said, “It’s my daughter who's being rude.”

John smiled. “Young miss is just being straightforward, it’s okay. | think it's cute of her to express herself frankly.”

Isabel furrowed her brows when she was called cute. “Stupid uncle, are you calling me cute? Do you mean it?”

John smiled. “Of course, | mean it.”

“Okay. You might bully Aunt Sherry but you’re also a handsome guy.”

“Hahaha.” John burst into laughter.

His bright laughter somehow gave Madam Stockton, Queenie, and Julie chills.

John then introduced the ladies to Odell. “This is my mother, my sister, Queenie, and my sister-in-law, Julie.”

Madam Stockton and Julie smiled politely when being

introduced, only Queenie looked lowered her head in silence.

Odell smiled at them. He then looked at Liam and Isabel. “Liam, Izzy.”

Liam was like a lifeless robot when he greeted them.” Grandmother Stockton, Aunt Queenie, Aunt Julie.”

Isabel repeated the greetings like a machine before she looked at Queenie. “Aunt Queenie with the yellow hair, why are you

looking at the ground? Are you looking for something?”

Queenie looked at the girl. She tried her best to hold her anger back and said, “My hair is blonde, not yellow.”

“Yellow is blonde,” Isabel said as she protruded her lips. It was as if the girl wanted to provoke Queenie, and she continued , ”

Why did you dye your hair yellow? You look like a lion.”

Sylvia almost burst into laughter.

The others were rendered speechless and things got awkward again.

Queenie flushed. She was angered by the remark.

Just before she could shout at Isabel, Madam Stockton cleared her throat to signal her not to cause any trouble.

Queenie was forced to stay quiet, but she continued to glare at the girl.

Isabel stuck her tongue out and made faces at her.

John saw the faces the girl made and it amused him. He then said to the couple, “Master Carter, Mrs. Carter, I've prepared

some snacks. Why don’t we go inside?” Odell nodded and followed the host inside.

Isabel followed him in and looked around like a curious cat.
