Chapter 952
In the courtyard where Sherry was locked up, the alarm rang for a while before stopping, but
the group of bodyguards surrounded them tightly with no intention to leave.
Sherry glanced at them and whispered in Sylvia‘s ear, “Syl, i remember you learned self–
defense. Can you beat them?”
Sylvia froze. “When did I learn self–defense?”
Sherry was also stunned. “Five to six years ago, after you first divorced Master Carter. You told
me about it. Did you forget?”
Sylvia bit her lip. “I forgot to tell you, I have amnesia.”
“Huh?” Sherry was shocked.
“I‘ve forgotten everything that happened in the past nine years.”
Sherry was confused
for a long time before snapping back to her senses. “I was wondering why you were dressed so childis
hly today.”
Sylvia was speechless.
Sherry sighed and said to the
group of bodyguards, “I don‘t know her. She got lost and wandered in here. I‘ll go back to my room now
, so just let her go.”
The group of bodyguards stood expressionlessly in place, but a few of them could
not help but look at Sherry and Sylvia‘s clasped hands.
Sherry immediately let her go and said, “I really don‘t know her.”
Then, she elbowed Sylvia.
Sylvia knew what she meant and immediately said, “I also don‘t
know her. I really got lost and wandered in.”
There was no way Sherry
could leave in this situation, so Sylvia had to hurry back to Odell to find a way to save her.
The bodyguards stood still and looked at them with expressions saying, “Do we look like fools?”
At that moment, Zach and Jacob came running in from the courtyard entrance. They had obviously hea
rd the commotion inside.
They also heard Sylvia and Sherry‘s conversation earlier. After
running in, Zach said to Sylvia, “Lil Syl, what are you doing here? Did you get lost again? I
told you, this is the Stockton’s residence, not our home. Why won‘t you listen to me?”
He finished with a helpless and gloomy face, and said to the group of
bodyguards, “Sorry, guys, but this woman is my girlfriend. She came with me to attend the
party Madam Stockton is throwing. My name is Zach Hadwin. If you don‘t believe me, you can ask Mad
am Stockton. She knows who I am.”
The bodyguards looked at each other. Did they really not know each other?
However, there was only one entrance in the courtyard, and they guarded it the entire time. No one exc
ept John had entered. It was impossible for someone else to come in unless they climbed over the wall.
Did his girlfriend climb over the wall after getting lost?
Before they could figure it out, a rich male voice sounded from outside.
“Master Hadwin, who did you say was your girlfriend?”
Zach‘s expression changed as he turned his head. “Master Stockton, my apologies. My girlfriend has so
Then, he saw John and Odell who had walked over together with him. Zach instantly paled. “M–
Master Carter?”
Sylvia, who was still surrounded by the bodyguards with Sherry, exclaimed, “Odell?!”
Sherry was confused. “What‘s going on?”
The air was silent for a few moments as the group of bodyguards automatically stepped back.
Zach and Jacob also did not dare to say anything and stepped aside.
John was the first to walk up to Sherry. He grabbed her hand and
smiled dotingly when she tried to take a step back. “Why are you running around outside when your bod
Sherry naturally understood what he meant and paled, trying to withdraw her hand.
However, John took her into his arms and
looked at Sylvia with a meaningful smile before carrying Sherry into the living room.
The group of bodyguards surrounding them automatically backed off and stood in unison in front of the l
