Chapter 1562
Caprice was holding a toy plushie while dozing off on the couch. She tried her best to fight the sleepiness but was
losing as time passed.
“Caprice…” Sherry called the girl as she strode over.
Caprice was awoken by her voice and her eyes widened immediately. She answered with a sleepy voice,
“Mommy…”
Sherry carried the girl into her arms and kissed her on her chubby cheeks. “Caprice, Mommy missed you.”
The little girl widened her grin when being showered with kisses.
“Do you miss Mommy?” she asked.
“Oh, yes.” Caprice’s eyes felt extremely heavy after the brief excitement, and she looked like she would pass out
any moment. She grumbled, “But I want to sleep too.”
Sherry smiled. “Okay. Mommy will take you to bed.”

jacket and shoes before putting her on the bed.
Caprice clung onto her clothes and said, “Mommy sleep too.” The girl wanted her mother to sleep with her.
Sherry smiled. “Okay, Mommy sleeps too.” She lay down beside the girl.
Caprice closed her eyes peacefully and soon fell asleep.
The contract with the Stocktons had been signed, but Sherry had many things to
follow up
with her subordinates. She had to fix the details for her men to initiate the project, and there was also a celebratory
dinner at night.
After Caprice fell asleep, Sherry kissed the girl on the cheeks and went out.
John was having tea in his office. He looked rather annoyed when he saw Sherry come out this soon. “You are
leaving?”
Sherry said, “I have to go back to have meetings with my subordinates.”
John’s annoyance eased. He curled his lips and said, “Okay. Take care.”
Sherry headed to the door, but before she walked out, she thought of the celebratory dinner with her subordinates
tonight, so it was better to inform John beforehand.
“Oh, I’m having a celebratory dinner with them later. You should just bring Caprice home after you finish work. I’ll
go back on my own after dinner.”
Her subordinates had worked tirelessly ever since they came to Glenchester to close the deal, and as their team
leader, it was inappropriate for her to miss the dinner. She had to skip having dinner with Caprice tonight and even
miss the story–telling
session.
Just when she thought the man would be annoyed once more, the man smiled. Not only was he not angry, but he
also seemed supportive as well. “Okay, have fun.”
Although Sherry’s heart raced, she walked out without saying anything.
A while later, Sherry returned to the studio.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer subordinates were waiting for her to start the meeting. When they saw her come back, they all looked at her
with ridiculing gazes.
“Sherry, is there something going on between you and Master Stockton?”
“Yeah. I noticed the man looked at you differently when he came into the meeting room earlier. Did he try to ask
you out?”
Sherry’s eyes flickered nervously. “I had to spend a little more time with him privately due to the deal, so we are
friends. Stop talking nonsense.”
“Hehe. Why do I feel like it isn’t just friendship between you two?”
“I have the same feeling.”
Sherry put on her stoic face and said, “Do you guys want to go home tonight or not?”
Her subordinates immediately switched to their working mode and continued slaving
away.
“I’ll go get the laptop and we can have the meeting now!”
They all went to grab their things and gathered in the meeting room. Sherry sighed a breath of relief and headed to
the meeting room.
