    Punishment?


    No meal for the day again?


    Sherry suddenly remembered she had not eaten breakfast.


    The hunger calmed her annoyance and steered her to go


    1. in.


    Inside the spacious and luxurious living room, both John and Shannon were done with breakfast and were sitting on the couch.


    John wasfortably sitting on the single couch with his usual golden-framed sses, his white shirt, and his long pants. His


    clean and handsome featuresplemented his elegant sitting posture , making him look like a prince.


    Shannon, in her slim—fit dress, perched beside him.


    They turned to the entrance when Sherry came in.


    John remained nonchnt, but there was a hint of mischievous delight in his eyes when he saw Sherry reluctantly walk in in the


    maid uniform.


    Shannon smiled although her expression was void of true delight or happiness.


    “Good morning, Sherry. Have you eaten?”


    Sherry answered, “No | have not. Is there anything to eat here?”


    Shannon was silenced by the question. An unusual expression shed across her face, and she only recovered to her usual


    composure two secondster.” Unfortunately , we just finished breakfast , and the rest were taken away by the maids.”


    In short, there was nothing left for Sherry.N?velDrama.Org ? content.


    Sherry refused to ponder on Shannon‘s words. She switched her attention to the snacks on the tea table.“ Well, there are some


    snacks.”


    Shannon‘s expression froze. “Sherry, those are for John to go with his tea. Why don''t you go get something else?”


    “Is there something else here? Where?”


    Shannon red at her, warning her to stop the insubordination.


    Sherry tightened her lips awkwardly. After all, it was Shannon who had asked if she had breakfast.


    John was not interested in their conversation. Heid backzily and only spoke when Shannon fell into an awkward silence,


    “Sherry, pour me a cup of tea. If you amuse me, I''ll spare you a few pieces.”


    Sherry wore a professional smile immediately.” Alrighty!”


    She attentively went over, bent down, and refilled his cup with tea.


    “That''s not how you refill tea!” warned the maid beside Shannon.


    Sherry looked at her, and so did John.


    The cold gaze scared the maid who stepped back and lowered her head.


    Shannon immediately scolded her, “Celine, how dare you talk to my sister like that?” Celine was shaken. She nervously said,


    “I''m sorry, Madam! | didn‘t mean it. | just wanted to point out that she''s not pouring in the right position.” “You are in no position to


    do that! Get out!”


    Celine immediately left the room.


    Shannon nced at John and noticed that he had recovered hisposure. She smiled and said, “I''m sorry, John. | didn''t teach


    her well.” John smiled. “It''s okay. Shes doing it to your sister, not me.”


    He then looked at Sherry. Shannon‘s expression changed. She, too, looked at Sherry and said, “I''m sorry, Sherry. Celine just


    graduated from home economics school. She''s still young, so don''t be mad at her.”


    Sherry was holding the teapot when she heard Shannon. She smiled. “Come on, sis, do | look like someone that will get mad


    over that?”


    Shannon‘s expression froze for a moment before she forced a smile. “Of course, you''re not.”


    Sherry refilled the tea and put it in front of herself before she stood up.


    The air went still for a moment.


    Shannon was stunned while John narrowed his eyes. They were looking at the cup of tea that was in front of Sherry and further


    away from John. Did Sherry just hint at John to reach out to the cup of tea himself?


    In other words, she was emphasizing Sherry‘s identity as a maid.


    Sherry sighed. ‘Fine. It''s just tea anyway.‘ She bent over, took the cup of tea, and brought it to John.


    John reached out. Sherry passed the cup of tea to him but identally touched his finger in the process.


    Sherry frowned and immediately retracted her hand.


    Meanwhile, John took a sip of tea nonchntly. He smiled at Shannon. “Shannon, Mother and Julie are attending an eventter.


    Why don''t you tag along and apany them?” Shannon''s eyes glimmered.


    Sending her to a social event with Madam Stockton and Julie was another way to promote her status as the new Mrs. Stockton,


    but the thought of Sherry staying back with him rushed to her mind and killed the glimmer in her eyes.


    I


    She said, “John, are you staying home today? Why don''t | apany you instead? I''ll go next time.”


    “I''m going to workter,” John replied with a smile. He added, “The event is happening soon, so go to Mom''s ce and see what


    you can do to help.” “Okay, I''ll go there right away,” Shannon reluctantly said before she got up. She nced at Sherry before


    leaving
