Chapter 1057

Sherry stood in his direction.

Looking at his figure getting closer and closer, she wrinkled her eyebrows.

‘What is that man planning? Is he really going to choose me for the first dance? Doesn't he know the meaning of the first dance?

Does he really want to marry me?’

Soon, he reached her.

Sherry‘s eyes flickered for a moment, and she held her breath nervously.

He smiled gently. “Move over. You're in my way.”

She was speechless, and her face suddenly froze. John maintained his smile. “Did you not hear me? Do you need me to repeat

myself?”

Sherry immediately took a step to the side.

He continued to walk forward and stopped after a few steps.

The woman he stood in front of was Shannon.

The garden was still silent, and everyone looked at him and Shannon.

Shannon obviously also did not expect John to walk up to

her. She was surprised with unconcealed excitement in her features.

Sherry frowned as her body turned cold uncontrollably. Her hands hanging at her sides were also tightly clenched.

John smiled at Shannon. “Ms. Fowler, may | have the honor to ask you for the first dance of the day?”

After saying that, he extended a hand toward her like a gentleman.

The corners of Shannon's lips twitched several times before she said, “I-it's my honor to dance with you, Master Stockton.”

Then, she shyly placed her hand on his.

John took her by the hand.

The group of people saw this and consciously stepped back to make room for them. Only Sherry stood stiffly in place.

It was only when John and Shannon flowed into a romantic waltz and moved in front of her that she snapped back to her senses.

She immediately took a few steps back.

There were several women standing over there, and Sherry heard their taunting laughter as she stood there. “Hehe, she was still

spacing out there. Did she really think that Master Stockton would choose her?”

“How humiliating. If it were me, | would be too embarrassed to stay here.”

“She used to work in a nightclub, so the thickness of our skin naturally can't compare to hers.”

If it were any other day, Sherry would have definitely treated those words as if they were just the wind. However, for some

reason, she felt like she was thrown into an icy gutter at that moment. She felt cold and disgusting

When she saw the intimate figures of John and Shannon waltzing , nausea crept up her throat. She immediately turned around

and walked out of the crowd.

At that moment, several women in front of her were talking enviously about Shannon.

“| didn't expect Master Stockton to choose Ms. Fowler, but | heard that she is betrothed to Master Brown.”

“It's just a betrothal. They're not engaged or married yet. Besides, Master Stockton is much more powerful than Master Brown. If

it were me, I'd definitely choose Master

Stockton.”

“Me too. | guess that Ms. Fowler will also definitely choose Master Stockton.”

“| really envy her.”

Sherry immediately took several more steps back.

‘If not for that jerk threatening me not to leave until the event was over, | would've crawled out of here even if my legs were

broken!"

Unluckily, she saw Janine again.

Janine stared in the direction of John and Shannon. When she saw Sherry retreat to the side, her face turned cold. “I thought

you were more capable . Unexpectedly , Master Stockton chose your sister.”

She instantly flashed a smug expression when talking about Shannon.

Sherry sneered, “Yeah, | guess it's my fault for being your biological daughter. If | weren't, maybe | might be better than my sister

instead.”

Janine‘s exquisitely dolled—up face instantly twisted into a scowl.

Before she could collect herself to scold Sherry, the latter walked past her and went somewhere else.
