Chapter 1250 John maintained a pleasant smile. “I came to pay you and Master Carter a visit. I figured I‘ll pick up Sherry as well since I‘m already here.” 

Sylvia frowned and expressed with a voice filled with confusion, “Pick up Sherry? Haven‘t you kept her locked up in your house this entire time?” 

John feigned surprise. “She escaped last night, haven‘t you heard?” 

Sylvia hissed sharply. “You took away her phone. How am I supposed to know?!” 

John smiled. “How could you know that I took away her phone if you haven‘t met her at all?” 

 

Sylvia did a double take then explained, “I talk to her now and then but recently it‘s nothing but radio silence so I figured that it must be you who took her phone away. How is she supposed to escape on her own?!” 

“That‘s right, I took her phone away. Still, she managed to sneak away during a dinner party hosted at my house without me noticing until after the fact,” John stated with a skeptical look at Sherry. 

Sylvia promptly asked, “Where did she run off to?” 

John smiled. “That‘s what I came to ask you and Master
