Chapter 415<\/p>\n
Rayburn was deeply touched by those words from Cherise.<\/p>\n
It seemed that Cherise was acknowledging that Dream Residence was her maternal family, and she regarded him as a member of her family.<\/p>\n
Cherise followed Seraphina out of the study.<\/p>\n
After being in the dim study for a while, stepping outside, she felt a bit of relief.<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t take in the view of Dream Residence when she arrived but now she had the chance to.<\/p>\n
The duplex layout let her see the entire first\u2013floor hall from where she stood.<\/p>\n
It was understated luxury and elegant without being too showy\u2013honestly, it reminded her a lot of her grandmother\u2019s taste.<\/p>\n
She pursed her lips and calmly made her way downstairs.<\/p>\n
At the door, Rita had been waiting for nearly twenty minutes. She hadn\u2019t gone inside, nor did she plan to.<\/p>\n
She understood the meaning behind the \u201cDream Residence\u201d sign, and from the moment the house was built, she had no intention of stepping inside.<\/p>\n
Even after waiting almost twenty minutes, she looked completely at ease, not the slightest bit impatient.<\/p>\n
It seemed like she had gotten tired of standing, so she sat down the gazebo across from Dream Residence.<\/p>\n
When Cherise stepped out, she saw the servant from next door bringing Rita a cup of coffee.<\/p>\n
Rita caught a glimpse of Cherise at the door and turned to look her way.<\/p>\n
Rita sat gracefully, smiling and nodding at Cherise before giving her a little wave.<\/p>\n
Cherise noticed and smiled back, nodding in return.<\/p>\n
Then she made her way slowly toward the gazebo.<\/p>\n
Rita\u2019s eyes stayed on her the whole time.<\/p>\n
It was hard to ignore that the girl in front of her was not only beautiful and lively but also had an intriguing, mysterious<\/p>\n
bura.<\/p>\n
As Cherise got closer, Rita didn\u2019t stand up, knowing her position, and just stayed seated, watching Cherise walk toward her.<\/p>\n
Cherise wasn\u2019t surprised by this and she sat down across from a directly.<\/p>\n
The two locked eyes.<\/p>\n
it felt like some kind of unspoken energy was passing between them.<\/p>\n
Neither of them rushed to speak, just sitting there quietly for a<\/p>\n
After a while, Kita Binally broke the silence. I guess I can call you Cherise as your grandfather did?<\/p>\n
Since I\u2019m his current wife, I should show the proper respect Here, this is a gift for you.<\/p>\n

\u201cTake it, dear!\u201d<\/p>\n
She then placed a lovely gift on the stone table and pushed it toward Cherise.<\/p>\n
Cherise looked at the gift, reached for it, and smiled at Rita. I\u2019ll take the gift since you\u2019re still my grandfather\u2019s wife.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can call me Cherise.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve never met, so calling me by a nickname would feel weird<\/p>\n
\u201cAs for you, I\u2019m not really sure how to address you\u2013step\u2013grandmother? Second grandmother? Old aunt?\u201d<\/p>\n
She chuckled a bit and then added, \u201cThis is awkward\u2026 I\u2019ll just call you Mrs. Muller instead!\u201d<\/p>\n
Rita hadn\u2019t expected Cherise to be so straightforward,<\/p>\n
But she wasn\u2019t angry. She just laughed and said, \u201cAlright, no need to rush. We will gradually get to know each other.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can call me whatever you like; it\u2019s just a name after all.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise smiled in agreement. True, it doesn\u2019t really matter.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re much more interesting than your grandmother,\u201d Rita said right after Cherise finished speaking.<\/p>\n
Cherise tilted her head, looking at her. \u201cOh? You two were close?\u201d<\/p>\n
Rita nodded. \u201cKind of. We were in the same group of university students who went abroad to study back then.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise stretched out the word \u201coh\u201d and said, \u201cI get it now, so you knew that she and my grandfather became a couple when they were abroad back then!\u201d<\/p>\n
Rita paused for a moment\u2013and then answered. \u201cOf course!\u201d<\/p>\n
As soon as she said that, Cherise looked at her with a mocking smile and said, \u201cSo you didn\u2019t care about your reputation or\/ morals!<\/p>\n
\u201cMy grandfather just came back to Clusia, and you followed right behind.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou boldly stepped into someone else\u2019s marriage, ruined their family, and made them suffer endlessly, didn\u2019t you? Hmm?\u201d<\/p>\n
Then she raised an eyebrow at Rita.<\/p>\n
Rita, hearing what Cherise said, calmly took a sip from her steaming coffee before replying, \u201cDid Megan teach you that?<\/p>\n
\u201cLooks like your manners aren\u2019t much better.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise glanced at her freshly manicured nails and sneered, \u201cManners depend on who you\u2019re dealing with<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd clearly, you don\u2019t deserve any!\u201d<\/p>\n
With Cherise finally confronting her directly, Rita stood up straight, no longer pretending to be polite. You\u2019re right. You\u2019re not just more interesting than your grandmother, you\u2019re braver and bolder too.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour grandmother just smiled all the time, and that was enough to make all the fine inen notice her<\/p>\n
As for me, just followed the elders\u2018 orders to marry.<\/p>\n
Besides, in our generation, these things were common in our bi tomily\u2013marriages were just natural, well\u2013matched<\/p>\n
unions.<\/p>\n

Chapter 415<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you don\u2019t believe me, ask your grandfather, or Morris\u2019s grandmother, or Mrs. J<\/p>\n
Jarrett.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll of them just got married because it was arranged by their families.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise also stood up, looking down at Rita with cold, fierce eyes. \u201cA well\u2013matched marriage, huh?\u201d she said, her gaze turning<\/p>\n
more intense.<\/p>\n
Rita met her eyes with disdain and said. \u201cWhat? Do you want to get revenge for your grandmother?<\/p>\n
Td advise against it, kid. Times are different now.<\/p>\n
\u201cBesides. I didn\u2019t do anything to your grandmother. Your grandfather and I just followed our parents\u2018 wishes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise let out a cold laugh, \u201cSo you didn\u2019t do anything to my grandmother, huh?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo the witchcraft on her wasn\u2019t your doing? Wasn\u2019t it you and the Hawkins family who did that?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise stared at her as she said this.<\/p>\n
Rita chuckled softly, almost like she heard a joke, and then said elmly, \u201cCherise, you\u2019re still too young too naiye.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t think that just because you know a bit of witchcraft, you can slander people. This is a law\u2013abiding society, and everything needs proof. You can\u2019t just spread rumors.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m an old woman, near the end of my life. If you dare to slander me, I\u2019ll fight you with everything I have, even if it costs me my life<\/p>\n
\u201cFine. If that\u2019s what you want, take care of yourself. I\u2019m waiting! After saying this, Cherise turned and walked back to Dream Residence.<\/p>\n
