Chapter 1386


    Sherry leaned on the car and crossed her arms. “Tell me, | have all the time in the world.”


    Jacob pursed his lips awkwardly.


    Had she not noticed he did not want to talk to her?


    A quick thoughtter, he said with a professional smile, Why don’t you ask Madam herself for more details? I’m just an observer,


    so my story might not be urate.”


    “Those who observe see clearer. | want your side of the story,” Sherry said with a raised brow.


    Jacob was left speechless.


    He somehow felt Sherry was unlike the person she was two years ago. Her aura and presence had grown a lotThis is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    stronger.


    Some thoughtster, Jacob reluctantly said, “Ms. Fowler, I’m just a bodyguard. | shouldn’t be talking about my boss here.”


    Sherry’s lips remained curled, and her smile remained bright. “If you don’t tell me, I''ll call Syl and ask her to fire you.”


    Jacob felt absolutely helpless. People just loved to threaten bodyguards like him by firing them, which was


    getting a little old in his opinion.


    Amoment of silenceter, he said, “Alright.”


    Since Odell had gone looking for Sylvia, they must have made up and cleared the misunderstanding.


    He then exined how Ruth arranged for Shermaine, who looked like Sylvia, toe to Westchester two years ago so that she


    could approach and intentionally save Madam Carter.


    He also mentioned that Shermaine was promoted to be Odell’s secretary after two years and then got exposed as part of


    Ruth’s n by Odell himself after a few


    days.


    Sherry’s expressions switched multiple times in the


    process.


    After briefly learning what happened, she asked, “Syl ran away because of Shermaine?”


    “| suppose so,” Jacob said. He then exined, “But there’s nothing between Master Carter and Shermaine. He was busy a while


    back and almost neveres home. Madam doesn’t like that very much, and Master Carter must have assumed that she


    doesn’t understand him.”


    Sherry’s expression softened.


    If there was something going on between Odell and Shermaine, she would not have noticed the inklings of a scheme when she


    confronted him in the parking lot.


    Odell went looking for Sylvia yesterday, so they were probably sleeping together already by now.


    Sherry then suddenly recalled seeing a woman in a cap running past her car. She asked, “Was that Shermaine?”


    Jacob nodded. “Yeah. It’s her.”


    She looked in the direction that Shermaine ran off.


    The street was empty, the trees looked quiet, and there were no signs of souls anywhere. Shermaine must have left.


    She then asked Jacob, “Are Madam Carter, Aunt Tonya, and the kids home?”


    “Yes. They are all inside,” Jacob said.


    Sherry then took several beautiful boxes out of her car. These are the presents I’ve prepared for them. | still have something to


    do, so I''ll leave them to you.”


    Jacob took the presents. “I understand.”


    Another quick thoughtter, she added, “Don’t say it’s from me. Just say it’s from Syl’s friend.


    Surprised, Jacob asked, “Why?”


    Sherry’s eyes flickered. “No reason. Just do as | said.”


    Jacob then rted her reaction to John’s incident, so he


    simplyplied.


    After that, Sherry got into the car and left.
