Chapter 317<\/p>\n
Dennis and Rella were so happy to see Cherise that they didn\u2019t notice Morris standing behind her.<\/p>\n
Morris stepped forward gently and took Cherise\u2019s hand. \u201cHello, Dennis and Bella I\u2019m Morris, Cherise\u2019s boyfriend. Its a pleasure to meet you both!\u201d<\/p>\n
Caught off guard by this revelation, Dennis and Bella were surprised.<\/p>\n
However, the sight of the handsome young man in front of thein was hard to ignore. He had a certain charm that was easy to like.<\/p>\n
Bella quickly recovered. \u201cOh my, this young man is exceptionally handsome\u2013like someone from a painting Not a flaw in sight! Isn\u2019t that right, Dennis? Looks like Ms. Leach already has a boyfriend!\u201d<\/p>\n
As she spoke, Bella gave Dennis a playful nudge.<\/p>\n
Startled by her push, Dennis took a moment to collect his thoughts. \u201cGoodness, this is a shock? Ms. Leach brought her boyfriend home!\u201d<\/p>\n
While he was happy for Cherise, a small sense of concern lingered. They hadn\u2019t been around much lately, so they didn\u2019t know this young man well.<\/p>\n
Still, from his appearance, he seemed like a good match.<\/p>\n
Cherise felt a bit shy at that moment.<\/p>\n
Morris, sensing Dennis\u2019s unease, smiled reassuringly. \u201cDon\u2019t worry, Dennis. I\u2019m a man of integrity. I\u2019ll treat Cherise well.\u201d<\/p>\n
Marlon stepped forward and added, \u201cMorris is a great guy\u2013we\u2019ve all seen that!\u201d<\/p>\n
Hearing Marlon\u2019s approval, Dennis felt a bit better. \u201cWell, if Marlon says so, then he must be trustworthy. I have to admit, I like him too.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise then wrapped her arm around Bella\u2019s. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to worry. He treats me very kindly! Everyone must be hungry by now\u2013let\u2019s head inside!\u201d<\/p>\n
Her words reminded Dennis to start preparing the meal. \u201cToday is a happy day. Everyone, come in and make yourselves comfortable. Bella and I will cook for you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Being a friendly group, the rest of them\u2013aside from Marlon and Trent, who took Zander back to their place in Saphira to drop off luggage\u2013followed Cherise inside.<\/p>\n
Truman and Leo, as they entered, could hardly sit still, admiring the beautiful decor of the house.<\/p>\n
\u201cWow, this is Cherise\u2019s home. The interior design here is better than any estate in Betrico,\u201d Truman said, impressed.<\/p>\n
Xenia, lounging in a chair, scoffed. \u201cWell, let\u2019s not forget whose home it is. Cherise is the famous architectural designer, Duskson. It\u2019s not good to act like you\u2019ve never seen anything so impressive!<\/p>\n
\u201cWe wouldn\u2019t want Dennis and Bella to think Morris associates with shallow people. Or else, how could they trust him with Cherise?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWise words,\u201d Truman and Leo said in unison.<\/p>\n
They took a seat neatly in a row, acknowledging Xenia\u2019s point, and waited quietly for the meal.<\/p>\n
Dennis and Bella busily worked in the kitchen while Cherise led Morris to a special spot on the mountainside.<\/p>\n

09:23 Mon,<\/p>\n
Chapter 317<\/p>\n
Holding a bouquet of daisies, Cherise was calm and serene.<\/p>\n
Morris walked beside her. Before them stood row after row of immaculate gravestones.<\/p>\n
When they reached the highest gravestone, Cherise stopped.<\/p>\n
The stone was spotless, clearly well cared for, with no weeds in sight.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re here. This is my grandmother\u2019s resting place,\u201d Cherise sai softly to Morris.<\/p>\n
Morris responded gently, \u201cHey, grandma.\u201c.<\/p>\n
Cherise took the flowers from his hands and carefully placed them in front of the gravestone.<\/p>\n
Looking at the photo on the stone, she smiled warmly. \u201cGrandma, I\u2019m back to see you. I\u2019ve brought your favorite wine, freshly brewed by Bella. Please, have a taste.\u201d<\/p>\n
With that, she poured a little wine onto the ground in front of the gravestone.<\/p>\n
Afterward, she asked softly, \u201cHow have you been in the other world?\u201d<\/p>\n
She sat quietly for a moment, gently touching the smiling face in the photo.<\/p>\n
Morris watched that photo with a quiet respect, standing beside her.<\/p>\n
\u201cCherise, won\u2019t you introduce me to grandma?\u201d he asked gently.<\/p>\n
Cherise smiled softly. \u201cGrandma, I\u2019ve found a boyfriend. This gentleman beside me is Morris. I hope you\u2019ll like him.\u201d \u201cShe will definitely like me. Elders always favor my type,\u201d Morris added playfully before Cherise could finish.<\/p>\n
Cherise nodded in agreement, speaking to the likeness of her grandmother, \u201cGrandma, I thought no one could love me as deeply as you did after you left. But since meeting him, I feel a new kind of happiness.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe treats me with such care and tenderness. As long as he stays true to me, I believe our lives together will be wonderful.\u201d<\/p>\n
She glanced at Morris.<\/p>\n
Morris smiled. \u201cRest assured, grandma. I will devote my life to loving and cherishing her.\u201d<\/p>\n
The moment was interrupted by Bella calling them to dinner.<\/p>\n
Morris took Cherise\u2019s hand as they walked down the hill, leaving behind a bouquet of fresh daisies, a pristine gravestone, and the lasting image of a warm smile on the memorial.<\/p>\n
