\nReturn Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 432<\/p>\n
Chapter 432<\/p>\n
In Truman\u2019s car, as soon as Jean got in, she called Mary.<\/p>\n
She told her not to pick her up at Betrico University, just to meet at Ebb & Flow<\/p>\n
After she finished speaking, she looked at Truman, who was driving, thinking that his side profile was quite striking.<\/p>\n
She said, \u201cMr. Simpson, thank you. I find it hard to say no, so I\u2019m glad you were there.\u201d<\/p>\n
Truman gave her a quick glance, then focused back on the road. \u201cI didn\u2019t know that was a thing, but I\u2019m different. I say no when I need to.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you like something, you like it; if you don\u2019t, you don\u2019t. Be brave and say no. There\u2019s no need to go against your heart.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI never expected that an entertainment company CEO would say such inspirational words.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh well, I will leave it alone and take time to do that. Changing everything all at once is truly difficult,\u201d Jean said, gazing out the window.<\/p>\n
Not long after, Cherise and Truman\u2019s cars arrived almost at the same time at the entrance of Ebb & Flow<\/p>\n
As they got out of their cars and exchanged greetings, before they could even start a conversation, Mary\u2019s car also arrived.<\/p>\n
One was Mary\u2019s travel car, and the other was for the security personnel accompanying her.<\/p>\n
Before Mary even got out of the car, four men in black security uniforms quickly jumped out of the accompanying vehicle to surround her car.<\/p>\n
There were quite a few people around, and to those who didn\u2019t know the car owner\u2019s identity, the scene seemed a bit too grand.<\/p>\n
Many people wanted to take photos to share online, but after seeing the license plate, they all put their phones away. They were worried that the serious\u2013looking men in black might confiscate their phones the next moment.<\/p>\n
Truman joked in a playful tone. \u201cIs this entourage sure here for a date at this modest and low\u2013key Ebb & Flow for fruit wine? It feels like we can\u2019t accommodate you\u2013Mrs. Jarrett here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jean said awkwardly, \u201cHehe, after that time when some thug scared Grandma Mary during a park walk, Grandpa Lucas insists she bring extra security whenever she goes out.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s gotten used to it; she\u2019s always been a bit timid and easily swayed. We\u2019re just worried she might get tricked, so please, bear with us.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise raised her eyebrow and gave a soft smile as she looked at Mary\u2019s black car.<\/p>\n
After a few minutes, the security team carefully checked the area before opening the car door for Mary to get out.<\/p>\n
Seeing the car door open, Cherise politely walked toward the car with Jean following.<\/p>\n
Mary stepped out of the car, looking relieved. Seeing Cherise and Jean, she quickly said, \u201cOh, it\u2019s such a hassle going out with all these checks everywhere.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey don\u2019t trust me at all, and my life is getting duller.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut what is this place? Ebb & Flow, it\u2019s well\u2013decorated for sure, but still, it\u2019s just a bar.<\/p>\n

Chapter 432<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat, Cherise, are your inviting an old lady like me out dancing What a surprise.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, that won\u2019t do. If Morris\u2018 grandfather finds out, it\u2019ll be a big problem.\u201d<\/p>\n
Truman interrupted, \u201cNo, Mrs. Jarrett, we\u2019re all very proper businessmen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cherise didn\u2019t deny or explain Ebb & Flow\u2019s main operations. She just smiled at Mary in front of her and said, \u201cGrandma Mary, let\u2019s go inside.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jean added from the side, \u201cYeah, Grandma Mary, I came here a couple of days ago. It\u2019s just a lounge bar, really cozy.\u201d<\/p>\n
There were quite a few people outside, and Mary, not having much to say, reluctantly agreed, \u201cAlright, alright then. I\u2019ll pick the place for our next outing.\u201d<\/p>\n
*****<\/p>\n
\u201cHey, now that you mention it, this drink is really tasty, and the colors are so pretty too, red, yellow, green, purple. \u201cIt\u2019s nothing like the fruit wines I usually drink. I should definitely take a to\u2013go cup home for my husband to try.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s into a little drink now and then. And one of these little cakes too, please.<\/p>\n
\u201cWow, the singer on stage is actually pretty good. I thought bar music was the type that hits us hard, all \u201cboom crash,\u201d but this is really nice.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat\u2019s this guy\u2019s name on stage? He\u2019s singing so well, nice and slow, with a great voice. It\u2019s exactly my kind of music.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis place is surprisingly nice. I feel a lot younger and more relaxed here. I kind of want to go up and sing a song myself. Is that okay?\u201d said Mary, half an hour later.<\/p>\n
The three of them were sitting in a booth directly facing the stage, which gave them a great view.<\/p>\n
Jean, who was worried that Mary wouldn\u2019t like the place earlier, found that she seemed never wanted to leave.<\/p>\n
But Truman was quite impressive too. His cocktails really touched people\u2019s hearts and he knew how to capture people\u2019s thoughts.<\/p>\n
Watching Truman mixing drinks at the bar, Jean had to say he was leaving quite an impression on her.<\/p>\n
Cherise thought Mary was really cute. At this age, still so innocent, she must be someone who was well\u2013protected and surrounded by love from her family.<\/p>\n
So innocent that she couldn\u2019t really tell right from wrong, just like Mrs. Chivers said, she was a bit naive.<\/p>\n
Thinking of this description, Cherise couldn\u2019t laugh.<\/p>\n
