Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 1414
Later that night, Sherry collapsed on her bed after cleaning up and texted Peter.
âAssistant Johnson, are you asleep?
Peter texted her back after a moment. âWhat's the matter, Ms. Fowler?â
Sherry sent him a smiley face emoji. âNothing in particular. Do you have time tomorrow?â
Peter texted back after a minute. âWhy do you ask?â
She avoided the question and replied with another question. âAre you going out tomorrow? Or are you going back to the office?â
Aminute later, Peter's reply came. âI am going out on a business trip tomorrow.â
Sherryâs eyes gleamed. âWhere to?â
âA site inspection on a project in the suburbs.
As Johnâs assistant, Peter usually stayed by Johnâs, side. Therefore, if Peter were to go on a business trip, John would probably be with him.
If John went, Caprice would be there too.
Sherry asked, âThe suburbs are huge. Which area are you going to?â
On the other hand, Peter sent a screenshot of every conversation he had with Sherry to John.
At the Stocktonsâ residence, Caprice sat in her baby chair obediently and ate the food Aunt Wanda delivered to her mouth. Her
crystal clear eyes were glued to her father.
John was on his phone beside her. He was looking at the screenshots Peter sent him.
âHmph. Look at the words she uses with Peter. | bet sheâs been fooling around with men in the past two years,â John thought.
His lips curled subtly as he replied, âTell her the address.â
âYes, sir,â Peter answered.
A few seconds later, Peter sent him another screenshot. The screenshot showed Sherryâs reply after Peter texted her the
address.
âWhy is it so far away? | heard it's going to snow tomorrow. Assistant Johnson, remember to bring extra clothes and keep
yourself warm.â
Johnâs expression turned cold.
Ding!
Peter texted him, âSir, how should | reply?â
John curled his lips into an ominous smile. âReply however you want.â
A few seconds of silence later, Peter reluctantly replied, Yes, sir.â
Then, Peter sent him another screenshot that contained his reply to Sherry.
âThank you, Ms. Fowler. | have something else to do. If thereâs nothing urgent, please excuse me.â
Sherry texted back, âItâs okay. Go do your thing. Heart emoji.â
She sent Peter a heart emoji?!
Johnâs gaze turned cold. Not even his golden-framed glasses could conceal his grim gaze. The air at the dining table suddenly
turned quiet.
It was until Capriceâs adorable voice sounded that the silence broke.
âDaddy.
John recovered his composure and put his grim expression away. He turned to her with a soft gaze.
Caprice said, âDaddy, I'm done.â
John smiled and patted the girl's head. âGood girl.â
She pouted. She put both her hands out, signaling him for a hug.
John carried her into his arms.
The girl then reached out to the spoon of soup and fed him. She said, âDaddy, aaah... Caprice feeds you.
Johnâs eyes flickered before he opened his mouth in delight.
The girl fed him a spoonful of soup.
âShe wanted to feed him another spoon, but John held her hand. âThank you, Caprice. | can eat by myself.
Caprice pouted. âDaddy is not happy. You are not eating. The soup is cold
John looked slightly surprised
