Chapter 1080

Chapter 1080 The shuttle car went at a gentle speed so the passengers could appreciate the scenery and buildings on both

sides of the road.

After passing through the front garden , they arrived at one of the traditional courtyards in the back.

Shannon had never seen such exquisite garden villas and could not help but look around. However, she only looked out of the

corner of her eyes, lest she give Julie the impression that she was ignorant.

Julie sat beside her and looked at her face. Before long, she began to introduce the courtyards to Shannon. “This one is

specially provided for guests to stay.” “This one is to store miscellaneous items.” “The one inside is Queenie‘s residence.”

Following Julie‘s descriptions, Shannon looked at the courtyards and occasionally responded politely.

Then, the car drove to a courtyard where around four to five bodyguards had been stationed at the door.

Julie’s soft introduction stopped for a moment.

Shannon also looked at her in confusion, only to see Julie pursing her lips. Her expression was a little off, as if she could not

mention this courtyard.

Shannon’s eyes flickered and she asked suspiciously,” Ms. Julie, why are there so many guards in this courtyard? Is someone

living there?”

Julie’s gaze flashed, and she replied, “N—No one lives here.”

At that point, the car also passed by the bodyguards and arrived at the door to the next courtyard.

Julie immediately pointed to the door and said, “Ms. Shannon, this is the courtyard where John usually lives.”

Shannon looked over.

The appearance of the courtyard looked no different from others, except for the fact that it was connected to the courtyard

guarded by those five bodyguards. The more Shannon looked at it, the stranger she felt.

‘Why did Julie keep her mouth shut about that courtyard?

‘Why is that courtyard connected to John‘s residence?

‘If there was some kind of treasure, then he would've just kept it in his own courtyard instead of using a separate one.

‘Is there someone locked up inside?’

Shannon narrowed her eyes as a calculating look flashed in her gaze.

‘If that’s the case, | have to find out what's going on.’

In Sherry‘s courtyard.

The door was closed, so she had not seen anyone passing by outside.

Her head was buried in her embroidery work.

After an unknown amount of time, the embroidery piece was finally finished. She stretched her back and said to the maid

standing by the side, “Go and get me a glass of juice. I'm thirsty.”

The maid said expressionlessly , “Master Stockton said you can only drink water.”

“You can just get it for me secretly without telling him.”

The maid pursed her lips. “Master Stockton is getting married to someone else. | don't understand how you're still in the mood to

drink juice.”

She headed outside while muttering.

“Wait,” Sherry called her.

The maid thought she was going to talk about John‘s marriage and quickly turned back to look.

Sherry grinned at her. “Help me steal a drumstick or two as well.”

The maid was speechless and could not help but stare at Sherry. Sherry made a heart shape with her fingers. “Love ‘ya, babe.

When I'm free, I'll make you rich and introduce a hunk to you!” The maid snorted. “Who said I'm going with you?” Not long after,

she came back with a tray in her hands. On the tray was a teapot and a teacup with a lid.
