Chapter 269


    Still, Mandy’s actions showed that she was clearly interested in Damien. Even though Cherise trusted


    him, she wanted to know everything to feel reassured.


    Daniel smiled and gave her a peck on her cheeks. “Thanks for understanding.”


    She forced a smile. “I also want to know what exactly is going on.”


    After all, she could clearly see the impact of Danielle’s death on Damien.


    His sister must be a lot more important than me, his wife of only two months. Even if I don’t allow him to


    continue the investigation, he’ll still continue anyway. In that case, why shouldn’t I support him?


    Nevertheless, she still felt disappointed and upset.


    On the way back, she looked grim and surly. As soon as they reached home, she went to bed. straight


    away. After tossing and turning around, she was unable to fall asleep, with Mandy’s face a constant


    appearance in her mind.


    Her sixth sense told her that Mandy knew Damien’s intentions of meeting her, and she was deliberately


    telling him the secrets between him and Danielle to lure him to investigate her.


    After several rounds of turning around in bed, someone knocked on the door – it was ke, who was


    still in his school uniform.


    He smiled sweetly at Cherise. “Cherry, Dame said you’re not in a good mood. Shall we water the


    nts?”


    Cherise gave it a thought and decided to let the matter slide.


    Forget it. There’s no use brooding on it. I need to keep my spirits up since I’m still recovering.


    With that thought in mind, she got out of bed and sprang up in front of ke. “Let’s go!”


    The afternoon sun was scorching outside, but Cherise and ke had a lot of fun watering the garden


    and ying with each other.


    Standing near the window of his study, he watched them as his thoughts shed back to thirteen


    years ago.


    Back then, Danielle also yed with him throughout the entire house, be it inside or outside, by the


    stairs or in the garden.


    Since their parents passed, she had been taking good care of him. Though he was already a teenager


    back then, he was still naive and innocent, full of love for life.


    Yet, the good times did notst.

    If it weren’t for Cherise, he could no longer feel any warmth.


    He heaved a sigh and caressed the woman in the picture. “Are you… still alive?”


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    “I transferred you to another university.”


    A woman threw the transfer letter on the table in a cold manner. “You will be starting a few days.


    Mandy picked it up. “The cardiology department in Adania University?”


    She rolled her eyes. “I have no interest in medicine.”


    “This is where Cherise is studying”


    In a wheelchair with her back against Mandy, the woman croaked hoarsely, “You’ve met him. Be it the


    looks or the family background, he’s the elite in Adania. If you make them divorce, he’s yours.”


    Mandy curled her fingers around the letter, pressing her lips into a thin line. “I heard that…” She


    nched, weighing her words. “That three of his ex-fiancées had all passed in idents. Cherise


    might have escaped the fatal fate because her background doesn’t match him at all. But I don’t want


    my life to be at stake, though he’s my type.”


    “Hah.” The woman in the wheelchair scoffed. “Having me around you, what are you afraid of?”
