Chapter 1561
Tea was served in the meeting room.
Sherry and her subordinates sat down on the other end of the table.
The receptionist said, “Ms. Fowler, please wait for a while.”
Sherry smiled. “Okay. Thank you.”
There were over twenty minutes left until the meeting time.
Arriving earlier showed the Sagers‘ sincerity in this collaboration, so Sherry was more patient than usual.
To her surprise, the door was opened before she could finish her tea. Peter was the one who opened the door, and
then John came in.
The man’s slender figure and his expensive suit appeared before Sherry’s eyes. The golden–framed glasses set off
his handsome features, and he looked even more charming when he smiled at Sherry.
Sherry was stunned. She thought the meeting would start at 2 o’clock, so why did John come over so early?

John walked to her and put a hand out for a handshake. “Ms. Fowler, thank you for
waiting.”
Sherry’s lips twitched helplessly. “We just arrived as well.” She then politely shook his
hand.
He held her hand tightly and only let go when she glared at him. John then sat down
in the center seat.
Other than Peter, there were two more executives who came in with John. They both shook Sherry’s hand before
sitting down opposite her.
The contract–signing procedure was brief and simple.
Sherry prepared two sets of contracts for the executives. They only passed the contracts to John after they had a
look at them.
John went through them carefully and then nodded. He then stamped the document using the company stamp;
Sherry did the same with the Sagers‘ company stamp.
The deal was a go–ahead as both company representatives signed the contract.
Sherry passed the documents to her subordinates. She then stood up and smiled at John while putting her hand out
for a handshake. “Master Stockton, I look forward to the start of our project.”
John smiled and shook her hand. Two seconds later, he said, “I look forward to it
too.”
Sherry quickly retracted her hand “Then, we will be leaving. Thank you for having us today.”
John smiled and said, “Caprice wants to see you.”
Sherry froze, and so did her subordinates and the executives from John’s side.
Everyone turned their attention to Sherry en masse.
Sherry’s eyes flickered awkwardly. She told her subordinates, “I have something else to discuss with Master
Stockton. You guys should go back first.”
Her subordinates nodded and left as told.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPeter and the executives were wise enough to leave together and left John alone with Sherry.
John got up from his chair.
“Isn’t Caprice asleep?” Sherry asked.
The girl should be having her nap at this hour.
John walked to her and said, “She heard you were coming, so she didn’t want to
sleep.”
He got closer, so close that she could feel his breath in front of her face.
Sherry instinctively took a step back.
John glanced at her before he walked past her to the door.
She followed him out but kept a two–meter distance from him.
Although she kept her distance from him, the employees of the company stared at her with odd looks along the
way. Many of the female employees showed jealousy in their gazes as well.
It seemed like when Sherry carried Caprice out the other day, it gathered some unwanted attention, and rumors
about her spread across the company. Sherry pursed her lips and followed John to his office.
