Chapter 1696
Sherry wanted to stop the car and greet them, but she remembered that Lisa and Carl were already waiting for her. Besides, now that Caprice was awake, it would be hard to have to explain to her directly why she could not spend the day with her today.
As much as it hurt her to do so, she simply pretended to not notice them and stomped the gas pedal, accelerating past them.
Caprice took notice of the car and seemed intrigued. She pointed a greasy finger at the back of Sherry’s car that was driving off into the distance and expressed, “Daddy, that car looks like Mommy’s.”
John’s eyes darkened. “Yeah.” The car was out of sight in no time.
Caprice continued to nibble on the piece of waffle and the car had become nothing more than a passing thought. “Daddy, this waffle is so tasty, you should eat some too.”
She said as she brought the half-eaten waffle to John’s lips. John took a tiny bite and smiled delightfully. “Thank you, Caprice.” Caprice smiled brightly. “You’re welcome, Daddy.”
She tucked the leftover waffle into a paper bag that came with it and muttered to herself, “I'll save this for Mommy when she comes back.”
John grimaced upon hearing this. His eyes were still fixed in the direction where she drove off into. ‘Sherry, are you so sure about getting engaged with Carl?’ 1 When Sherry arrived at Lisa’s house, Carl and Lisa were already eagerly waiting for her.
As soon as she stepped into the house, Lisa came to greet her and informed her that breakfast was prepared for her. She was asked to set something to fill her stomach before they began dressing her up.
Sherry obliged and enjoyed a quick breakfast with Carl. With that, it was time to commence the preparations. The makeup artist they hired was very skillful.
Most days, Sherry only put on simple makeup when she went to work, so it was a nice change to have a proper, professional makeup artist do it for her for once. The finished product transformed her completely. She was astounded by the result.
Lisa showered her with compliments the entire time.
Carl was already dressed. He wore a fitting suit, his hair was parted into two sides. Sherry had to admit that the man looked very dashing and exuded a fine gentlemanly charm.
He leaned against the wall the entire time and gazed at Sherry with an enamored look in
his eyes.
As if on cue, he immediately chimed in after Lisa finished complimenting her, “You look beautiful, Sherry.”
Sherry smiled awkwardly.
He added, “We're a match made in heaven.”
The corner of Sherry’s lips jerked suddenly.
If not for Lisa being here, she would have told Carl off.
Lisa chuckled upon hearing this and suddenly announced, “Alright, she needs to change into her dress, let's go.” With that, she dragged Carl out of the room.
With the help of an assistant, Sherry was fitted into the white dress with long sleeves, the one she had picked out the other day. With that, she was ready for the engagement ceremony. She walked out of the dressing
room.
Carl and Lisa were waiting for her with eager anticipation. Carl was excitedly peeking around the corner, waiting to see Sherry. They made eye contact the moment she stepped out.
He was immediately transfixed by her beauty. Even his pupils seemed to expand like an excited cat, immediately followed by a smile.
Sherry ignored his reaction and turned to Lisa. “Alright, I’m ready, let’s head to the venue.”
They still had a lot of time to spare, but they had to get a move on earlier since the venue was located in a villa at the borders of the city region.
It was rather far, roughly a two hours drive.
Lisa smiled delightfully. “Sure!”Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
With that, she led Sherry out of the house.
Carl followed them, his smile did not fade the entire time.
After nearly two hours, they arrived at the vacation villa owned solely by the Sagers at last. The villa was located in a mountainous region. The conditions of the environment were well preserved
It was surrounded by lush greenery and beautiful fauna of all sorts of colors. Sherry and Carl were going to get engaged in this real-life garden of Eden.
