    It was a fact that her own family disliked her.


    Julie tightened her lips. She curled her lips into a smile and said, “If you''re not bothered by it, that''s great. But if you need any


    help, just tell me. John cares about you, which makes you my friend. If | can do anything to help, | will do anything within my


    capabilities.”


    Although Sherry did not know why Julie approached her with goodwill, she put on a polite expression and thanked her. “Well,


    thank you in advance, Julie.”


    Julie said, “Don‘t mention it.”


    Sherry then walked off without pause.


    The Stocktons‘ residence was huge, bigger than Sherry could imagine. The gardens alone were a few times bigger than a


    common house outside.


    She took a long stroll around the garden before she came back.


    Because her stomach was growling in hunger, she wanted to search for something to eat, but she identally arrived at


    Queenie''s ce where she saw Queenie helping herself to a table of snacks and pastries.


    It was a feast for the girl, so assuming that the girl could not finish them, she went up and snatched a piece to put into her


    mouth.


    Queenie was stunned for quite a while before she realized that Sherry had just eaten one of her pastries. She red and


    grumbled, but Sherry ignored her and continued eating.


    Queenie was both speechless and breathless. After a while, she sat down sulking and red at Sherry.


    It was until Hailey pushed another cart of pastries over that Queenie bolted up and went over to the cart to protect it as though


    she was a mother lion protecting her cubs from hunters.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    Sherry was surprised to see Hailey here. “Why are you here?”


    Haily was simrly surprised. “That should be my question to you. Shouldn''t you be at the master''s ce? What are you doing


    here? Don''t you know you are breaking the rules by running away from your workce during working hours?”


    Queenie was confused. “What are you two talking about?”


    Sherry swallowed her food and asked, “You''re working here at Queenie''s ce?”


    “Yeah,” Hailey said.


    The questioning went on for a few more minutes until Sherry connected all the dots.


    On the day of the wedding , after Sherry left, Emerence summoned Hailey back to rearrange her work schedule .


    However, she had been taking care of Sherry before that, and Sherry was some secret lover to the master of the house. With the


    new Mrs. Stockton moving in, the other maids found Hailey to be a disgrace , and some of them bullied her.


    It was Queenie who spotted her being bullied by the others, so after some rearrangements, she ended up working for Queenie.


    Sherry nced at Queenie in disbelief after hearing Hailey''s story. She could not believe that the arrogant Ms. Stockton would


    help someone in distress.


    Queenie sensed her gaze again. “Why are you looking at me? | brought her in because | need more people here, not because of


    you.


    Sherry giggled. She picked an ice cream from the cart and ate it in front of Queenie.


    The rich chocte taste and the creamy vani were a perfectbination on the tongue


    Queenie grunted while Hailey pouted in silence.


    John usually left for work early in the moming and came homete at night. He would leave for work again after dinner.


    He only spent a handful of days at home, so other than being ordered around, Sherry lived a rather carefree life,


    Julie was polite to her whereas Shannon dared not do anything to her because of her reputation, and no one else dared to order


    her around, especially the other maids.


    Sherry slept when she was tired and freeloaded at Queenie''s ce when she was hungry.


    The carefree days went on for half a month.


    On this particr night, when John stayed out again, Sherry got off work and returned to the staff quarters where she ran into


    Emerence holding a meeting with the other maids.
