Chapter 1577

They were both surprised to see Madam Stockton here.

Queenie was the first to voice her surprise. “Mom, why are you here?”

Madam Stockton glanced at Caprice who seemed to be sound asleep in Sherry’s arms, then she darted her attention to Sherry. “It’s freezing out there, you shouldn’t let her spend so much time outside in this weather. It’s not safe for a young child.”

Though she was reprimanding Sherry, her tone was not as spiteful as the way she spoke to her in the past.

Queenie turned to look at Sherry.

Sherry seemed like she was going to say something, then she decided against it and answered, “I understand.”

Madam Stockton rose and excused herself. “I’m leaving, make sure you get enough rest.”

With that, she left.

Queenie followed after her.

Sherry gazed at Madam Stockton’s figure and felt a tinge of suspicion.

It seemed to her that Madam Stockton was more cordial with her at least compared to before, but there was something about her demeanor that struck her as rather strange. It seemed like there was something on the old lady’s mind.

Her thoughts went to what happened last night. She had let Queenie take Caprice to Madam Stockton to keep her company in hopes of cheering her up.
