Chapter 1207
Sherry figured that she had nothing important to do anyway and might as well head to the garden with
them and snack on some oranges.
Meanwhile, Shannon arrived at the entrance and promptly got into a car, then drove off.
After about half an hour, she stopped outside a cafe in a remote part of town. She put on a hat and
sunglasses before stepping out of the car, then she trotted with a sense of urgency.
The cafe was dimly lit.
She scanned the cafe as she stepped inside and quickly noticed Mason who had been waiting for her.
She hurried over to him and sat opposite him before removing her sunglasses and greeting him with a
friendly smile, “Mason, how long have you been here? I didn’t keep you waiting for too long, did I?”
“I only just got here,” Mason answered candidly.
Shannon eyed him eagerly and whispered carefully, “Do you have the money?” Mason looked at her
intently. “I have it.”
Shannon was floored.
“Eight hundred million! How did you get it all together?” she expressed incredulously.
She knew that the Browns were more or less on the same level as her family, and it was unlikely that
they would have this much money at their disposal. How did he get so much money in such a short
time?
“Well.” Mason was not interested in beating around the bush and went straight to the point, “Can you
help me sneak into the house? I’ll hand over this eight hundred million to Sherry myself.”
As Shannon’s eyes glimmered, she smiled at him. “Sure, but you’ll need to give me some time to come
up with a solution.”
“How long do you need?” He demanded.
Shannon was a little bothered by how pushy Mason was being. She considered it for a moment before
deciding,” Two days. Give me two days.”
“Okay, I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first.” He prepared to get up as soon as he said
this.
Shannon immediately blurted out before he had time to go, “Wait, can’t you tell me where you got all
this money from?”
Mason replied, “Don’t worry about it. It’s all from a
legitimate source.”
{“Was it your parents?”
“No. Don’t worry. I didn’t tell them about what happened to Sherry.”
Shannon smiled and quickly clarified, “That’s not what I was trying to say. I was only curious how you
managed to get so much money in such a short time all by yourself.”
Mason’s expression suddenly sharpened. “Like I said, you don’t have to worry about it.” Certainly, there
was no way he could put together such a vast amount of money from his business alone. He had to
pawn everything he could and pile it together with all his savings to put together the eight hundred
million required.
Shannon no longer pressed him for an answer and smiled sweetly and appreciatively. “Thank you,
Mason. Let me thank you on behalf of my sister as well.”

“No need to thank me. This is what we owe her.”
If Sherry had not asked John to bail them out, they would have gone bankrupt ages ago.
Mason sighed weakly and walked out without another word.
Shannon instantly wiped the smile off her face while she subconsciously clenched her hands tightly.
Eight hundred million was not a dismissible amount of money. He must have taken out all his savings
and then some.rs
‘Sherry, oh Sherry, what have you done to deserve such a grand sacrifice on his part?!’
It did not matter. Now that the money was here, she could finally get rid of Sherry. Who cared about
Mason anyway? After this, she would be the only woman in John’s life. She could finally cement her
position as Mrs. Stockton. Every single soul in Glanchester would have to treat her with the respect that
came with the title, and that included Mason as well as every member of the Browns.

When she thought of this, she smirked cunningly.
After Mason drove off, she got up from her seat and left as well.
Little did she know, there was a woman in a hat seated in the section directly opposite where she and
Mason sat. She had snuck into the cafe from the back the moment Sherry and Mason entered and had
been eavesdropping on their conversation the entire time they were here.

When the suspicious woman heard Sherry talking to Janine on the phone, she promptly reached for a
phone and sent a message to Julie who she had registered as’ Second Madam’ on her phone.
The contents of the message were as follows: “Madam, you were right all along. She came here to
meet Mason. I have my eyes on them…”
