Chapter 1007
Sylvia let Sherry know about Odell bringing all three children over.
Shocked, Sherry immediately swallowed the food that was nearly spat out. With her mouth no longer
full, she pressed on with more questions. “So, Isabel and Flint are here too? Where are they?
“They’re with Odell at Mrs. Stockton’s compound.”
“Alright.”
Meanwhile, Liam was returning from the loo.
His face was drenched, and so were his hair strands in the front.
Sherry remarked in surprise, “That was quick, Liam.”
Liam replied, “All I did was wash my face and nothing else.”
Sherry’s eyes widened. “Did you go to the loo just to wash your face?”
Liam answered, “Yeah.”
His straight face bore no other emotions.
Sherry was reminded of the smooches she forced onto him moments ago. “…”
Hurt, she munched on the bread.
Once her belly was full, Sherry sat back down and went back to her needlework.

Sylvia and Liam sat in company with her.
To Sylvia’s surprise, Liam was fixated on Sherry’s embroidery because she expected Liam to be bored
out of his mind.
With Liam’s attentiveness getting Sherry worked up, the latter completed her needle piece in an hour.
Sherry asked, “Liam, are you keen on needlepoint?”
Liam shook his head.
“Why were you staring throughout?”
“I was curious.”
“About what?”
“How you manage to stitch something so hideous.”
By the looks of his facial features, he meant business.
Sylvia, “…”
Sylvia burst out laughing. “…Haha.”
A short while later, a maid of Madam Stockton emerged, making a beeline toward Sylvia. The maid
said to her, “Mrs. Carter, the madam and Mr. Stockton sent me to inform you that it’s time for lunch.”
Sylvia looked at Sherry.
“Go on, Syl.” Sherry gave Sylvia a wink.
It was a look to smuggle Sherry some food.

Sylvia grinned. “Sure.”
She then picked up the paper bag that had not been thrown away.
The paper bag had a layer of film inside. Sylvia came across the secret compartment in the guest
room. The paper bag may appear small, but it could hold a lot of stuff.
By the time Sylvia led Liam to the destination, a sumptuous feast was already spread out across the
dining table.
Following their arrival, everybody in the room rose to their feet.
Madam Stockton placed Flint, who was fast asleep, on an
unfurled rug before smiling at Odell and Sylvia . “Mr. and Mrs. Carter, get the children seated for lunch.”
Returning a polite smile, Sylvia took Liam’s hand and approached the table.
Odell walked over to join her.
Isabel had the same thought in mind, but Queenie pulled her back by her pigtail. “Don’t think you’re
going anywhere after what you did to my hair, kiddo. You can leave once you
smoothen out the knots.”
It was then Sylvia’s eyes were drawn to the bird’s nest on Queenie’s head. No, a bird’s nest would be a
compliment…
God knew what Isabel did to Queenie during the time of her and Liam’s absence because Queenie
looked as if she was fresh out
of a madhouse.
