MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 12 Episode 24

Sherry still remembered the memory of the time when she had found John five years ago. It had been her first time meeting him after almost five years.

She had met him in his office of over 1000 square feet.

John wore a bespoke suit as he sat elegantly behind his office table.

Sherry was led into the office by his secretary.

She had barely taken a few steps before the secretary told her to stop.

The secretary even gave her a kind reminder.

“Ms. Fowler, Master Stockton doesn’t like people being too near him.

Just stand here.

It’s better not to go near him.” After speaking, the secretary left.

Sherry stood on the spot, flustered .

She looked toward John with a timid gaze.

Her distance from him was only about 15 feet, but it felt like there were mountains andseas between them. She stood while he sat.

However, she felt like she was looking up at him.

Her mind had gone blank at that time.

She did not know what to say, and her hands and legs felt cold and stiff.

It was John who had spoken first.

The corners of his mouth lifted into a gentle smile, yet he was obviously more mature and composed compared to fiveyears earlier.

He had become more difficult to read as well.

It was as if his gold-rimmed glasses had hidden his true self.

John said, “It’s been a while.” Sherry moved her mouth a few times before she replied stiffly, long time no see.”

After that, the atmosphere turned quiet.

John maintained his smile.

He asked, “Was there a reason that you’re looking for me?”

His tone was polite and distant.

He was now totally different from the sincere, passionate person she had been with in the rental house back then.

At that time, Sherry had thought that it would be a hopeless cause for her to beg him tohelp the Fowler and the Brown families.

However, she still bit the bullet and said, “I… | came to look for you because of something.” “What is it?” John crossed his handsin front of his chest and leaned against the leather chair.

He had a lazy posture while still carrying himself with a high and mighty air. Sherry continued to press forward.

“My dad came to Glanchester City and started a project. The project has good prospects. I… | just want to ask if you’d be interested in investing in it.”

“The joint project by the Fowler family and the Brown family?”Sherry’s expression changed. She met his smiling eyes that seemed to have seen through everything. She replied stiffly, “Mm.” John continued smiling.

“| already heard of that project. However, they seem to be in dire need of money now. The project will be terminated if they can’t gather enough money within a week. They’ll have to face a huge debt crisis too.” Sherry replied, “…Yes.

“So you’re here looking for me to investmoney in them?” John looked toward her with a sharp gaze.

Sherry felt a lump in her throat.

She knew that she did not have the right to look for him.

After feeling a lump in her throat for some time, she said, “You’ll earn money if you invest in this project.

If you’re not interested , then just forget it.” After speaking, she turned and was about to leave.

However, John suddenly said, “Sherry, this isn’t the right attitude to beg someone to do something.”

Sherry looked toward him right away.

He was still sitting

elegantly in his leather chair.

Although there was a smile on his face, the way he was looking at her made her feel like an ant on the ground. Sherry felt uncomfortable all over.

However, she thought of Matthew and Janine , who had kneeled to her.

At the end of the day, they were still her biological parents.

That spurred her on to say, “| beg you. Could you please help them?” The look on John’s face showed that he was momentarily stunned. Next, he stood up from the chair.

His slender figure walked toward her and he very quickly stood before her.

John was taller than Sherry by a head’s length.

When he was in front of her, he blocked all the light sources in front of her.
