Chapter 1686
There was a subtle change in John’s expression which signified his intrigue in seeing Aiden and Caden, but he
continued pressing onward and did not pay much further attention to them.
They quickly approached him and cut off his path.
John looked annoyed.
Aiden announced, “We came to see you.”
Caden probed, “You know Sherry, don’t you?”
Although they both wore pleasant smiles and spoke to him politely, it was not difficult to detect the arrogance in
their voice.
As far as they were concerned, this handsome man that stood before them was a nobody. Anyone of any significant
importance would not associate themselves with Sherry, especially considering that he was her ex–husband.

Aiden diffused the tension. “We are Sherry’s colleagues. Don’t worry, we’re not here to hurt you or anything like
that. In fact, I think we can help you.”
John asked, “And what exactly are you going to help me with?”
“We can help you salvage your marriage with her. You want to remarry her, don’t you?”
Remarry?
This caught John’s attention. “How are you going to achieve that?”
This was a sign that he was interested, so Caden and Aiden exchanged a faint smile with each other. Their guts
were right this entire time. This man was indeed Sherry’s ex- husband! Furthermore, he seemed fully intent on
winning Sherry back!
Aiden announced, “This is no place for us to talk. Let’s take this somewhere else.”
John agreed, “Alright.”
Shortly after that, they found themselves at a cafe next to the hotel and chose a secluded
corner to continue their discussion.
Aiden and Caden were seated shoulder–to–shoulder across from John.
They were gracious enough to order the best coffee the cafe had to offer, which coincidentally was the most
expensive selection on the menu. With that, Aiden kicked things off. “Sir, would you mind telling us your name and
where you came from?”
John picked up the coffee and took a sip. “John Stockton. I come from Westchester.”
Westchester?
If their memory served them correctly, Sherry was from Westchester as well.
They have never heard of there being any Stocktons in the city of any remarkable stature, so this man was a
commoner just like they had suspected.
They exchanged a wry smile with each other once again before continuing, “So, Mr. Stockton, would you mind

John eyed them with a suspicious glare. “First, tell me who you two are.” His voice was calm and held a steady
pitch. There was something about the quality of his voice that was rather intimidating.
To their surprise, Aiden and Caden felt slightly uncomfortable and unnerved. No commoner had ever dared to
speak to them so presumptuously.
They swallowed their pride and set their sights on their goal.
Aiden began, “My name is Aiden Sager, and this is my younger brother Caden Sager. We are both Sherry’s
colleagues.”
John eyed them suspiciously. “Why are you helping me?”
Caden asked, “I’m sure you know about Sherry’s engagement with the young master of Sager Corporation?”
John nodded.
Caden announced with a tint of pride in his voice, “You see, we are Carl Sager’s brothers.”
John seemed surprised by this revelation. “I see, so you two are the two eldest sons of the family.”
