Chapter 1629

Sherry stared at the passing scenery outside the window and broke the silence at last, “Carl, I thought you went back to Coastrock. Why are you here and how did you know I was here?”

Carl smacked his lips and answered, “You just suddenly disappeared for so many days. Even your assistant could not get in touch with you.

I heard about Madam Stockton getting into an accident and figured that you had to be involved somehow, so I went from there and figured out that John must have had you locked up again. I did some digging and got a list of all the properties he owned and went through them one by one until I found you at last.”

“No need to be so formal with me. Besides, you’ve helped me out many times too.”

Sherry tucked her lips and stayed silent.
