Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife

Chapter 1843

When John and Sherry got home, they stepped into the courtyard and immediately noticed Caprice lurking in the corner of the garden.

They hurriedly approached her.

“Caprice, what are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be sleeping?” Sherry asked while pulling Caprice up, her legs had grown stiff from crouching for so long.

Caprice broached the subject immediately. “Mom, Dad, I have something I need to tell you.”

Sherry was taken aback by this. What could be so urgent that it could not wait until the next morning?

John gently patted Caprice’s head. “Come on, let’s talk inside.”

Caprice followed them into the living room.

After Caprice sat down, she took a sip from a cup of tea the housemaids brought to them. Then, she plucked up the courage and announced, “I’m planning to go back to Westchester tomorrow.”

Both John and Sherry were caught off guard by this as it was so sudden.
