Chapter 1714

Things went silent for a moment.

John looked at her with teary eyes. He forced his lips to curl and then asked, “What about Caprice? Are you going to abandon

her?”

Sherry’s eyes teared up. She averted his questioning gaze immediately and inhaled deeply to regulate her emotions. “I'll just

pretend | never gave birth to her ”

With her capabilities, she could never get Caprice’s custody from John.

Besides, Caprice had been living with John since her birth, and she relied on him a lot more

Sherry had to cut ties with her previous marriage once and for all because it was her only option.

“Hmph...” John scoffed helplessly as he choked on his emotions. He never thought she would reject him so resolutely. He was at

a loss for words.

Sherry frowned heavily. She endured the stinging pain in her chest and said, “Move”

“Fine...”

John finally moved from the door.

Right when she was about to turn the handle, she heard whimpers from behind her Sherry’s heart clenched as she turned

around.

The door to the room was opened into a seam and Caprice’s petite body was standing there with pouty lips and teary eyes.

After the initial whimpers, she burst into tears. She cried louder and louder.

Sherry’s heart clenched tightly as if it was stung.

“Caprice...” she muttered.

Even the man beside her furrowed his brows.

Before the man and woman could react, Caprice opened the door and waddled over to them.

She cried as she waddled forth. She hugged Sherry’s leg as hard as she could and grumbled,” Mommy, don’t leave Caprice!

Mommy, don’t go! | don’t want you to go... Sobs... Sobs...”

Every word she said in her sobbing tone was a knife to Sherry’s heart.

Sherry could not bear to leave the girl. As she choked on her emotions, she squatted down and carried the girl into her arms.

Caprice hugged her tightly and continued to whimper, “Mommy, please don’t go. | will stop Daddy from bullying you. | will be a

good girl. Please don’t leave me... Sobs...”

Sherry’s heart clenched tightly. She patted the girl’s back to calm her down. A few moments later, she sighed and said, “Okay,

okay. Mommy won't leave Caprice.”

Caprice’s crying softened inmediately, but her eyes and nose remained red. She cried so hard

that she started to run out of breath. “Mommy... Sniff... You won’t leave Caprice?”

The girl looked adorable and pitiful.

Sherry immediately said, “Yes, my baby. I’m just venting my anger at Daddy. Mommy won't leave you.”

“Sniff... What about Daddy? Are you still going to get a divorce from Daddy?” Caprice stared at her with big teary eyes.

Sherry was silenced once more.

The man stared at her deeply.

Awhile later, Sherry then said, “Caprice, Mommy and Daddy can’t stay together anymore...”

Before she could finish, the girl burst out into tears once more.

“Mommy is a liar! Mommy is going to divorce Daddy and leave Caprice! Mommy is leaving Caprice ... Sobs...”

Sherry was silenced again. She glared at John, signaling him to calm the girl down. However, the man simply stared at her

blankly as if his soul had left his body.
