Chapter 932
There were no pictures of John online. There was not much information either and all Sylvia could find were brief details.
For instance, there were details about him getting banished from the Stockton family around six years ago, for reasons unknown.
What happened to him after that was aplete mystery, up until two years ago when he suddenly re-emerged as the
wealthiest plutocrat in nchester. He had single handedly built up the tourism and entertainment industry in nchester and
made the city a leader in these sectors.
Shortly after that, the Stockton family, who had been on a steady decline since his departure, decided to relocate from
Westchester City to nchester.
John was epted back into the family and revived them to their previous glory and more. They were now the icon of
nchester.
There was a particr remark that caught Sylvia’s attention which wrote: Benevolent and ruthless beyond imagination.
She wrinkled her brows upon noting this. These two terms were antonyms. How could they be used to describe the same
person?
Perhaps his appearance was gracious and kind but deep down, he was vicious and cruel?
Odell did mention there was some history between John and Sherry.
Since he had Sherry locked up in his vi, he must not be harboring good intentions even if he did not directly hurt Sherry. Why
else would she contact Sylvia for help otherwise?
Aunt Tonya had mentioned that Sherry had helped her on many asions over the past few years.
Even if she forgot all of these events, she could still recall her friendship with Sherry even as far back as nine years ago. She
could not sit by idly and watch as Sherry got tormented all alone in what was essentially a jail cell.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
She did not want to trouble Odell anymore. Besides, his territory was Westchester City so he should not have to be troubled to
make demands on John Stockton.
She thought about it and decided that she would go to nchester herself to look for Sherry.
The day passed quickly.
She devised a rather simple n. First, she would go to nchester and figure out where the vi Sherry was imprisoned in
was. Then, she would sneak inside and break her out once she managed to locate her.
Right after she had decided to go forward with the n, she heard the screech of the brake of a car that stopped outside the
gate.
Isabel, who was next to her, hopped off the couch and eximed excitedly, “Baddie Daddy is back!”
Sylvia’s eyes glowed up. She rose from the couch with Flint in her arms.
She turned to Liam who was still sitting calmly on the couch, reading a book. Then, she asked him, “Liam, aren’t you going to
greet your father?”
Liam replied, “Isabel can do it.”
It was just Dad anyway, there was no need to wee him.
Upon noticing Liam’s cool attitude, Sylvia suddenly felt conflicted and unsure if she should wee Odell.
Soon, Odell walked in with Isabel in his arms.
Sylvia smiled. “Good evening.”
Odell smiled faintly as well. “Hey, how are things at home today?
“Pretty good.”
“l see.”
There was a sudden awkwardness.
Sylvia thought she should say something. “How''re things in thepany?”
“Good.”
“Ah.”
Again, there was an awkward silence.
“Sigh...” Isabel suddenly sighed and climbed off Odell, then she motioned at Sylvia. “Mommy, I''ll take Flint. Liam and i can y
with him.”
It looked like the girl wanted to give her and Odell some privacy.
Sylvia took the hint and handed Flint to her.
Isabel took her baby brother and quickly went to Liam.
It was Sylvia and Odell left standing by the doorway.
Sylvia mentioned, “Dinner is almost ready. Come on in.”
Odell stood like a sculpture with his coat hung across his shoulder.
He looked stoically at her. lit was impossible to tell what was on his mind.
Sylvia thought for a moment and offered. “Want me to get your coat?”
He pursed his lips, a powerless look surfaced in his eyes.
“Come here.” After another brief pause, he added, “Come in front of me.”
“What for?” Sylvia asked with stark curiosity. Odell frowned again with a deep look in his eyes.
