Chapter 1972

After exactly twenty minutes, the car swerved into the Carters’

Manor and stopped at one of the buildings.

Caprice followed John and Sherry out of the car.

After getting out of the car, she trotted over to Liam's side.

Liam gave her a look.

Soon, the trio of Sylvia, Odell, and Isabel showed up as well. They promptly stepped out of the car. Odell and Sylvia approached John and Sherry.

“Dinner should be almost ready, so let's head in,” Odell informed John.

John nodded with a grunt.

Sylvia took Sherry’s hand and led them inside.

Isabel crossed her arms across her chest and followed them into the house.

Caprice took Liam's hand which was like a bear’s paw compared to hers. Liam held her hand which was tiny in contrast and walked into the house.

After entering the living room, he let go of Caprice the moment he noticed John turning over to look at them.

John darted a glance at them and held his silence.
