Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

Chapter 1754

Without Ron, Aiden, and Caden around, there was a marked improvement in terms of work

efficiency throughout the company. This improvement was not only seen in Sherry’s department but in other departments as well. Lisa and Carl rarely showed up over the next few days as they were busy dealing with the aftermath of the scandal.

Sherry only saw Lisa once over the next two days and never saw Carl at all.

Fortunately, the details of the two projects he signed on had been worked out. The departments were coordinating as they should and things were progressing smoothly.

Sherry returned to her usual routine. She would go to work every day and return home on time where she would spend time with Caprice before they went to bed. She hardly paid any attention to John.

This evening, Sherry left the office as usual after she finished up her work for the day.

She drove past several junctions and swerved into the apartment compound where she lived. After she got out of the car, she prepared to head into the lobby when she heard Caprice’s voice crying out after her. “Mommy!”

She turned around instinctively and noticed two figures underneath a streetlight nearby.

She spotted John first. He was wearing a white shirt paired with black trousers, and he looked dashing as usual.

He held Caprice’s hand.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

The child had a red bow tied on the top of her head and was wearing a bright red skirt paired with pretty red leather shoes. She slung a tiny pouch over her shoulder.

She was adorable when she was dressed up. It seemed like she was going somewhere with John. Sherry approached them with an affectionate smile and held her hand out toward Caprice. Caprice took her hand and threw herself into her arms. She looked up and asked eagerly,” Mommy, there’s a festival tonight, do you want to go together?”

A festival?

Sherry suddenly recalled that Coastrock held a special festival annually. Every year during the festival, there would be countless sightseeing opportunities and the streets would be lively.

Seeing that Caprice was already all dressed up and ready to go, Sherry knew she could not refuse. She smiled warmly and accepted the invitation. “Okay, let’s go.”

With that, they went into the car.

John followed. He watched as Sherry climbed into the backseat with Caprice, then he went to the driver's seat. He started the car, put his hands on the steering wheel, and they were on their way in no time.

Caprice lay cozily in Sherry’s arms and stared at the view outside quietly.

Sherry was looking at the child instead of the view outside.

It was very quiet in the car.

Soon, they arrived at a famous local street near the coastline.

The street was bustling with activity already. People got to enjoy the ambiance of the street life while also enjoying the wonderful and natural view of the sea.

Lanterns of various colors were hung wherever they went

Various combinations of colored bulbs were used to beautify the streetscape and added an artistic touch to the ambiance. Apart from stores that sold all kinds of goods, there were also street vendors selling all sorts of street food.

Sherry led Caprice down the street and gaped at the vendors.

John followed them silently.

Caprice was a big fan of all sorts of trinkets, so she was immediately mesmerized by a particular toy and gestured at it. “I want this!”

Sherry took out her wallet and paid for it, then she glanced at John.

John stepped forward and helped them take their first purchase of the night, and they continued walking down the street. They went from one end of the street to the other in no time.

Toward the end, John’s hands were fully occupied with countless shopping bags.

Caprice was clutching several strange trinkets herself as well.

Sherry assumed that Caprice had had enough shopping by this point and prepared to get something for them to eat.

Just as she was about to take Caprice to the other street where they could find food, something caught Caprice’s attention. She gestured at a store with countless bracelets on display and shouted, “I want those!”

Sherry turned toward where Caprice was pointing at.

The stall had countless bracelets on display out in front. At first glance, it seemed like the bracelets came in pairs and were meant for adults judging by their size.

Sherry was about to tell Caprice that the bracelets were too big for her tiny wrists when the stall owner explained to her, “Little girl, these are a couple’s bracelets that my wife made. These would be good for your parents but I’m afraid they’re not for you.”

The stall owner was a kind elderly man with a healthy waft of white hair. The way he smiled made him seem very approachable. Caprice was fascinated and told the old man, “Il want them!”

The old man smiled and asked, “You can’t wear them, honey. Why would you want them?” Caprice smiled and announced proudly, “I want to give them to Mommy and Daddy!”
