Chapter 1543

Sherry had a lot of work to get to today so there was no chance that she would be taking Caprice with her. John could do whatever he liked, take Caprice with him or leave her at home, it did not matter to her which option he chose.

Madam Stockton noticed how she kept her distance from the discussion and quickly averted her gaze back to John.

John cast Sherry a sideways look, then he turned to Caprice instead. “Caprice, do you want to stay home with Grandma?”

Caprice muttered softly, “I want to be with Daddy.”

Madam Stockton was immensely disappointed by this, but it was not surprising

since Caprice had always preferred to be with her father.

She took a breath and tried to make the best out of the situation. “In that case, could you bring Caprice back earlier today?”

John answered, “I’ll try my best.”

Then he added, “It’s cold out here, you should head inside quickly.”

Madam Stockton took the hint. “Alright, I’ll head back right away.”

At least John was showing some hint of concern for her well–being.

She counted this as a win.
