Chapter 1225 Sherry’s lips moved. “What is it?”
She sounded feeble and helpless.
Queenie frowned upon hearing her meek voice. “I didn’t tell my brother about you coming to the
quarters, I have no idea how he knew.”
“Yeah. Okay.” Sherry did not suspect Queenie ratting her
out.
After all, Queenie only knew she wanted to come back to the quarters, but she did not know anything
about her secret phone.
John obviously knew she came back for her phone, or maybe he already knew about the phone a long
time ago.
If she was correct, he already knew about it before she even asked Queenie for help. The question
would be how. Sherry was exhausted, mentally and physically. The exhaustion robbed her ability to
think. She said to Queenie, “I’m not suspecting you. Just go.”
“Sherry, are you okay?” “I’m fine.”
Queenie did not speak after that, and what followed was her hurried footsteps, striding away.
She must have left, so Sherry shut her eyes to rest. A terrible thought suddenly rushed into her head.
Her eyes popped open in fear. She forgot to take birth control pills! Neither did she take any yesterday!

The next morning, Sherry sat up on the bed as soon as she heard noises from the door.
The door opened as Emerence brought breakfast over with two bodyguards escorting her. She looked
as stern as usual while she put the tray of breakfast on the tea table by the bed and glanced at Sherry.
Just when she was about to leave , Sherry voiced out, “I want birth control pills.”
Thinking that she heard it wrongly, Emerence turned around in disbelief. “What did you say?”
Sherry repeated in her gruffly voice, “Birth control pills. I want birth control pills.”
Emerence’s expression changed. Even her gaze at Sherry looked complex.
“I have to get permission first. Take your breakfast in the meantime.” Emerence then walked out of the
room and locked the door on her way out.
Sherry had a glance at the tray of breakfast that was considered luxurious. It looked and smelled good
but
failed to pique her appetite. She fell back onto the bed and blankly stared at the ceiling. An hour later,
the door opened. Emerence returned with a box of unlabeled birth control pills. “Here are the pills.”
She walked to the bedside and noticed that the breakfast was untouched. She frowned but did not say
anything. After putting the pills down, she left. The door was shut and locked once more.
Sherry got up, grabbed the box of pills, and put two into her mouth. It tasted different from the ones she
had before. Maybe because it was from a different brand, it even tasted sweet somehow.
She took the pills and then started to dig into her breakfast.
Julie was standing outside the employee quarters, staring at the window in Sherry’s room.
Emerence came out of the building and went up to her. After a respectful bow, she said, “I’ve given the
pills to her as ordered.”
Julie smiled warmly. “Thank you, Aunt Emerence.”
Emerence immediately said, “It’s part of my job, but don’t you need to report this to the master?”
A hint of envy flashed in Julie’s eyes as she smiled. “If John doesn’t want her to be pregnant, he would
have given her the pills yesterday.”
Emerence was more confused than before. “Then, why didn’t you just tell me to inform her that there
are no pills available? Why go the extra mile?”
