Chapter 1968
Both Heather and Sophia looked up in fear. Even Roman was taken aback by the suggestion.
John then helped Caprice up and brought her out.
Sherry walked with them. She was worried about Caprice's back after the incident. "Caprice, how’s your back?”
Caprice felt better now that she cleared her name. "I feel better now."
Odell exchanged an eye with Sylvia before they brought Isabel away.
Mr. and Mrs. Duwait went after them.
There was no way the event could continue anymore after that happened but they had to somehow apologize or at
least make amends.
Mr. Duwait went to John and said, "Mr. Stockton, don't worry about it. I'll call the police right away. I'll give you and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMs. Stockton a satisfying explanation."
Mrs. Duwait went over to Sylvia and Odell. "Mr. and Mrs. Carter, Ms. Ross, it's our fault that you have to go through
something like that at our estate. Please forgive our mistake."
They left the estate swiftly.
The other guests no longer linger and started to leave.
'Tsk. She should find out who they are first before she kicks her."
"How would you know who they are? You can't judge a book by its cover, so it’s better to be polite. She's beautiful
but it doesn’t mean she’s playful.”
'Yeah. Thankfully I didn't join that dumb woman in bullying Ms. Stockton."
"Who would've thought she's John Stockton's daughter? I heard she’s the only daughter in the family. I understand
why they are so mad."
"I know right? Caprice is also Liam's girlfriend, the owner of Carter Tech District. Liam Carter is also the son of Odell
Carter. I bet they have been engaged since they were young."
"I remember Mr. Carter and Mr. Stockton used to attend events like this together with their wives. I bet their
children are also engaged.”
"Why did Heather go after Caprice after all?"
"I think she likes Liam and wants to ruin Caprice's relationship with him."
"Hmph. What a dumb woman. She should look into the mirror first. Ms. Stockton is still young but she’s a lot more
beautiful. Besides, Ms. Stockton is the only daughter of the richest man in Manchester. Who is Heather Mason?" 1
"That's not the point. The point is Heather tried to hurt
Caprice twice and Caprice didn't hold her responsible or take revenge. She did it again and got exposed this time. If
I were Caprice, I wouldn't forgive her.” i

The guests left the estate.
Other than the windy breeze, only Roman, Sophia, and Heather were left behind.
All three of them looked defeated, devastated, and horrified.
Roman recovered his composure after a while. He pointed at Sophia and Heather angrily and bellowed, 'You two
have done it this time! Our family is ruined!"
He went up to them and hit them.
The black MPV cruised smoothly in the night.
Liam was holding his phone while looking at his watch in the rear seat.
The event should be still going on. He could still make it.
Minutes before he arrived at the estate, his furrowed brows relaxed.
As he tapped on his phone, Caprice in a beautiful dress appeared. It was his lock screen.
Caprice sent him the picture this afternoon but he only saw it half an hour after the meeting ended.
If she wore the dress to the event, she would be the center of attention.
He decided to attend the event to exert his dominance and declare that she was her woman.
