Chapter 1704
Chapter 1704 Lisa was stunned and was left speechless for a while.
Ron, Aiden and Caden were shocked too. They knew the man before them as Sherry’s ex-husband, but they did not expect him to be such a high-profile person!
John Stockton, the richest man in Glenchester! Sherry’s ex-husband was the richest man in Glenchester?!
The three of them did not know what to feel. Should they be happy because they had exposed. Sherry and her ex-husband, or should they be worried because they had exposed Sherry’s ex- husband as the richest man in Glenchester?
After all, be it his background, his looks, or his capabilities, John was a lot better than Carl.
Ron, Aiden, and Caden could not believe their eyes. The disbelief put a complicated reaction on their faces, so complicated that they looked nothing like their calm selves.
The other guests felt more or less the same way when they recognized John and Caprice as the man and girl on the big screen earlier.
John simply smiled at them.
Caprice was in her father’s arms when she sized up the group of adults who looked at her and her father strangely She whispered into her father’s ear, “Daddy, what’s wrong with them?”
John pursed his lips. He looked beyond the group and landed his attention on stage. Sherry was also looking at him from the stage. When their eyes locked, her gaze turned cold. John smiled. He stroked the girl in his arms and pointed forward. “Caprice, Mommy is up there.”
Caprice looked in the direction that his hand was pointing. The girl’s eyes widened in excitement when she saw her mother. She shouted, “Mommy!”
Sherry’s gaze shifted. Her lips pursed. Caprice came down from her father’s embrace and ran towards her mother on stage. Lisa, Ron, and the others moved aside with complicated looks on their faces, paving the way for the girl.
The girl ran forward like a duck waddling. She reached the stage, but the stage was too high for her to climb up. She didn’t see the stairs on the sides, so she simply called her mother with her hands waving in a flurry.
“Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!”
Sherry could no longer remain still. She jumped off the stage and carried the girl into her arms.
John’s expression softened when he saw Sherry carry the girl into her arms. He then smiled at Lisa and said, “Mrs. Sager, it’s an honor to meet you. I’ve heard so much about you.
Lisa quickly recovered her composure and forced a stiff smile on her face. “The honor is mine. I've
heard a lot about you too. Master Stockton, you’re a lot younger than | expected, and you are a good-looking man.”
“You are too kind, Mrs. Sager | came here to congratulate Young Master Carl,” John said with a smile. He then looked at Ron, Aiden, and Caden.
Aiden and Caden averted their gazes out of guilt.
John then said, “I have to thank Young Master Aiden and Young Master Caden for informing me that Young Master Carl is getting engaged to my ex-wife, or else | wouldn’t even have known about this.”
Lisa was left speechless, her lips twitching helplessly. She turned and glared at the two brothers Aiden said, “Master Stockton, it's nothing. We really didn’t expect you to be Sherry’s ex-husband.” John maintained his smile. “You knew who | am. You just didn’t know my real identity
Both the brothers were silenced. They no longer dared to look John in the eye, especially after they claimed that they would help him get into the Sagers’ company and win Sherry’s heart back.
Ron was aware of the situation getting out of hand. He forced a smile on his face and said, ” Master Stockton, I’m their father, Ron Wright, the Deputy CEO of the company. My sons are a little straightforward. If they’ve said anything that has offended you, | apologize on their behalf.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“No, no, Mr Wright. Your sons didn’t offend me at all” John then turned to Lisa. “Mrs. Sagers, the ceremony is still ongoing right?” Lisa’s expression froze. “It is..” John continued, “I’ve prepared a present for Young Master Carl and my ex-wife. | want to give it to them myself. Is that okay?”
Lisa was left speechless. There was no way she would deny his request since he took the initiative to do so. She gulped and said, “S-sure”
