Chapter 1683
Two minutes later, John’s phone rang.
It was from Nelson, the bodyguard who stood guard outside Sherry’s apartment.
He put the phone near his ear.
Nelson said, “Sir, Ms. Fowler’s supper has just arrived, and she should be eating by now.”
As he hummed a reply, his tightened expression relaxed.
After a dreamless night, Sherry woke up and started to prepare for the day. Caprice had just woken up.
The girl’s response was slower in the morning compared to the rest of the day.
Sherry helped her brush her teeth and put on new clothes.
It was then the girl thought of her father.
“Mommy, where’s Daddy?” she asked with pouty lips.

The girl nodded with a pursed mouth.
Knocks came from the door.
Sherry ordered breakfast half an hour ago. It must be the deliveryman at her doorstep. She put Caprice on the
couch and went to get the door.
The deliveryman left after handing her the breakfast.
Sherry planned to tell Nelson to contact his boss, but before she could, she already saw the man standing by the
door.
The man wore his white collared T–shirt with casual long pants, setting off his slender figure. His signature golden–
framed glasses did not obscure the bright and somewhat enchanting gaze at her.
Sherry’s expression turned cold. She instinctively wanted to shut the door on him, but for Caprice’s sake, she held
her urge back.
She glared at him coldly before going back inside with breakfast.
The door was left open, which was a sign for him to go in.
Caprice’s eyes shimmered when she saw her father. She jumped off the couch and ran to him.
“Daddy!”
John carried the girl into his arms.
Sherry put breakfast on the table. Breakfast was Coastrock City’s local specialty. She was afraid that Caprice might
not like it, so she ordered a variety of breakfast for the girl.
There was no way the two of them could finish it, but she did not plan to include John for breakfast.
After she sat down, she waved at Caprice. She wanted to feed Caprice, but the girl grabbed a bun and started
munching on it. In fact, the girl missed sitting on her father’s lap.
Sherry put her hand down and ate breakfast on her own.
John was looking at her with Caprice in his arms.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA moment later, he cleared his throat.
Sherry heard him but decided to turn a deaf ear and a blind eye.
Caprice heard it too. She looked up at her father with a curious gaze as if she was asking what she could do for him.
John sneaked a glance at the breakfast on the table.
Caprice’s eyes flickered with realization. She grabbed a piece of sandwich and gave it to him.
“Daddy, you should eat too.”
John smiled. “Thank you, Caprice.” He took the sandwich and looked at Sherry at the same time.
Sherry was indeed looking at him.
John tightened his lips awkwardly and then said, “Caprice gave it to me.”
In other words, he did not take it himself. He even feigned an innocent look on his face.
“Huh?” Caprice failed to understand the meaning of his words. Out of concern, she innocently asked, “Daddy, why
aren’t you eating?”
John glanced at Sherry, and Caprice did the same.
Sherry said with gritted teeth, “If Caprice wants you to eat, you eat.”
“Okay.” He smiled and put the sandwich into his mouth.
