Chapter 1712

Caprice lifted her plump face and hummed a reply.

Maybe because the girl was hungry, she did not even need Sherry to carry her to the table. She crawled out of the couch,

waddled her way to John, and reached out to him with her arms open, asking him to carry her up.

John carried her up and placed her on the baby chair.

Sherry sat down at the table. Similar to Caprice, she picked up the cutlery and started eating.

After a silent meal, Caprice continued watching cartoons before she yawned.

Sherry carried the girl into the room.

“Caprice, take a nap if you are sleepy.”

Caprice refused to let go of her mother despite the fact that she could barely keep her eyes open. She grumbled, “Caprice wants

to sleep with Mommy.”

Sherry smiled. “Okay.”

She got onto the bed with the girl and hummed her a lullaby.

Awhile later, Caprice fell asleep soundly.

Sherry laid down for a little longer before she tucked the girl in and got off the bed. She changed out of her dress from the

engagement ceremony to something more casual. She put on a pair of socks and sneakers and tied her hair before she grabbed

her purse and went out of the room.

John was in the living room. He furrowed her brows when Sherry came out with her purse.

“Where are you going?”

Sherry ignored him. Instead, she said, “Caprice is asleep. Stay here and watch her.”

He went over to the door and leaned against it with a grin on his face. “Where are you going?”

Sherry glared at him coldly. “I can go wherever | want. Get out of my way.”

John remained still. “If you don’t tell me, | won’t move.”

The irritation and frustration rushed into her mind instantly. Her expression turned frosty. “This is my house.”

She granted him entry because of Caprice, yet the man had the nerve to threaten her and stop her from going out.

“| know. Tell me where you are going, and | will move,” he said with a soft smile.

Sherry clenched her fists tightly. Carl and Lisa were waiting for her. She did not want to waste time with the man. She sighed

heavily and said, “I’m going to meet Carl and Lisa.”

“Why are you meeting them? Are you still trying to get engaged to Carl?” the man asked with narrowed eyes.

Sherry was running low on patience. She bellowed, “It’s none of your fucking business!”

Disheartened, John stayed quiet for a while before he said, “Sherry, have you forgotten my present from earlier?”

Sherry choked on his answer and glared at him.

John curled his lips. “We are still legally husband and wife, yet you are trying to get engaged to another man. Even if | allow it,

the law won't.”

The law?

How dare he talk about the law in front of her?

Sherry scoffed. “The law didn’t give you the right to imprison me after | saved your mother. You have no fucking right.”

As soon as her words subsided, the apartment became quiet.

The man frowned and pursed his lips.

Sherry inhaled deeply and said, “Move.”
