Chapter 116<\/p>\n
Cherise had no clue Yulia had gotten interested in her.<\/p>\n
It was Saturday today, so Cherise didn\u2019t have to go to Betrico University for lectures.<\/p>\n
She planned to tell Morris personally that she was heading to Hamolica.<\/p>\n
Cherise had to go there to check out something by herself.<\/p>\n
Cherise entered Morris\u2018 house by inputting the password to unlock the door.<\/p>\n
Morris sent her the cold a couple of days back, so she could enter anytime she wanted to see him.<\/p>\n
Morris was in his study having a video meeting.<\/p>\n
He was frowning, looking somewhat unhappy.<\/p>\n
The people in the videoseemed tense, speaking carefully.<\/p>\n
Cherise followed the sound to the room.<\/p>\n
She noticed the door was slightly open and knocked on it.<\/p>\n
Morris glanced over at Cherise.<\/p>\n
When he saw her, his frown disappeared, and he smiled brightly<\/p>\n
Morris said to the video call, \u201cLet\u2019s have a break,\u201d and gestured for Cherise to come in.<\/p>\n
Cherise smiled, walking in with a sweet smile.<\/p>\n
Before Cherise got closer, Morris suddenly yanked her onto his lap with one swift motion.<\/p>\n
Cherise\u2019s face instantly turned bright red and hot.<\/p>\n
Morris looked at Cherise\u2019s instantly flushed face and teased, \u201cCherise, don\u2019t be shy.\u201d<\/p>\n
At the moment, Cherise was unable to move at all.<\/p>\n
Seeing Cherise looking dazed and speechless, Morris gently asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s the matter? Did you come to see me because you missed me?\u201d<\/p>\n
It was only then that Cherise snapped back to reality.<\/p>\n
She thought, \u2018He\u2019s adept at enticing me, consistently pulling me into his snare and causing me to become increasingl<\/p>\n
ensnared.\u2019<\/p>\n
Looking at Morris with affection, Cherise said, \u201cI need to go to Hamolica with Dora, and I just wanted to let you know.\u201d Hearing this, Morris asked with curiosity, \u201cOh? Hamolica? I\u2019ll schedule my plans and go with you,\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise shook her head and said, \u201cNo, you don\u2019t have to. You\u2019re busy, and Hamolica\u2019s not far. I\u2019ll be back tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n
Besides, if Morris went with Cherise, she might feel awkward.<\/p>\n
Morris said, \u201cNo matter how busy I am, I have time for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cherise didn\u2019t want Morris to delay his plans because of her.<\/p>\n
She took a breath and wrapped her arms around Morris\u2018 neck.<\/p>\n
Morris raised an eyebrow and casually put his arms around Cherise\u2019s waist.<\/p>\n

The next moment, Cherise kissed Morris lightly on the forehead and persuaded him, \u201cReally no. I\u2019m going with Dora, so I don\u2019t want to make her feel awkward!\u201d<\/p>\n
The kiss had its desired effect on Morris, Cherise had mastered the art of placating him.<\/p>\n
Morris knew he couldn\u2019t control Cherise too much. He nodded lightly and said, \u201cOkay, but Hugh needs to go with you. Even though he\u2019s a bit slow, he\u2019s quite skilled in fighting. That makes me feel more at ease.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise responded, \u201cAlright.\u201d<\/p>\n
They smiled at each other with affection.<\/p>\n
After having lunch with Morris, Cherise set off for Hamolica with Hugh, Dora, and Jason.<\/p>\n
Upon seeing Jason, Hugh felt a sense of recognition, as if he had encountered him in the past, yet he was unable to pinpoint exactly where.<\/p>\n
When Hugh learned that Jason was Dora\u2019s assistant, he didn\u2019t think much of it.<\/p>\n
Jason was also surprised when he saw Hugh.<\/p>\n
Jason wondered, \u2018Why does someone from Morris\u2018 group follow Cherise?<\/p>\n
\u2018Not just anyone could give orders to the three top assistants of Morris. Morris must really care for her.\u2018<\/p>\n
Jason was driving. Being from Hamolica, he knew the routes well and got them to the hotel in under three hours.<\/p>\n
The nursing home was closed for maintenance every Saturday, so the group just had dinner and then went back to their<\/p>\n
own rooms.<\/p>\n
As soon as Cherise entered her room, Morris made a video call to her.<\/p>\n
Cherise smiled and answered.<\/p>\n
Then she saw Morris\u2018 captivating face on the phone screen.<\/p>\n
Morris asked, \u201cCherise, are you there yet? Have you had dinner?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise replied, \u201cYeah, I just got here not long ago. We\u2019ve already had dinner.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDoes the food in Hamolica suit your taste?\u201d Morris asked.<\/p>\n
Cherise answered, \u201cIt\u2019s alright, just a bit sweet for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
After that, she added with a sweet smile, \u201cI want to eat the beef stew that Marie makes!\u201d<\/p>\n
Morris chuckled fondly and said, \u201cYou little foodie, I\u2019ll take you to have it when you\u2019re back.\u201d<\/p>\n
Just like that, they chatted for two hours.<\/p>\n
After they hung up the phone, Cherise\u2019s doorbell rang.<\/p>\n
She looked up, wondering who could be visiting at this hour.<\/p>\n
08:14 Fri, Dec 6<\/p>\n
Chapter 116<\/p>\n
She peeked through the peephole and saw Hugh standing outside, so she opened the door.<\/p>\n
Hugh said, \u201cMs. Leach, I apologize for the late disturbance. Mr. Chivers has sent me some beef stew for you.<\/p>\n
\u3053<\/p>\n
\u201cHe mentioned it might not match Marie\u2019s cooking, but it should tide you over for now. Once we return to Betrico, he promises to take you to Marie\u2019s restaurant for an authentic meal<\/p>\n
90%<\/p>\n
Cherise accepted the beautifully wrapped food box from Hugh with a knowing smile, as the affection she felt for Morris started to deepen.<\/p>\n
She pondered, \u2018Having a boyfriend actually turns out to be pretty nice.\u2018<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-141","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/141","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=141"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
