With the sound of the door closing behind her, Morris, whose emotions had been stretched taut, still felt no relief.<\/p>\n
He kept pinching his leg, testing its condition. Yet no matter how hard he pinched, there was no sensation. Finally, staring at the ceiling and thinking about Cherise, he closed his eyes, feeling defeated.<\/p>\n
Before he did, he silently cried out in his heart, \u2018Cherise, you\u2019ll come for me, won\u2019t you? My love, no matter what, I\u2019ll hold onto my last shred of resolve for you.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cMorris, wait for me. I\u2019ll find you soon\u2013very soon.\u201d Cherise, dressed in a pristine white lab coat, whispered these words as she stepped into the lab.<\/p>\n
Crow, similarly clad, followed closely behind. \u201cBoss, we\u2019re ready. And here\u2013these are what Dr. Garcia brought over, on Carson\u2019s orders.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise glanced at the divination tools laid out on the table, took a deep breath, and nodded. \u201cAlright, let\u2019s begin.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGot it!\u201d Crow replied, though he couldn\u2019t help feeling a bit uneasy seeing Cherise like this.<\/p>\n
Suddenly, a sharp buzzing sound from a vibrating phone broke the quiet of the lab. Crow glanced over and said, \u201cBoss, it\u2019s your phone\u2013it\u2019s from your grandfather.\u201d<\/p>\n
Without breaking stride, Cherise maintained her focus and said flatly, \u201cPut it<\/p>\n
er.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay,\u201d Crow responded, pressing the speaker button. Rayburn\u2019s gravelly voice came through. \u201cCherise, are you free to talk?\u201d \u201cA bit busy, but go ahead,\u201d Cherise replied candidly.<\/p>\n
w<\/p>\n
Rayburn on the other end seemed to sense something and said, \u201cIt\u2019s about Morris\u2013I heard about it. Your mentor\u2019s people told me. This whole mess, in many ways, is because of me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise\u2019s face showed a flicker of impatience. \u201cYes, you\u2019re partly to blame. I may take it out on the Muller family later. Don\u2019t take it personally. I have to go; I\u2019ve got things to take care of!\u201d<\/p>\n
Without waiting for a response, she signaled Crow to hang up the call. In Dream Residence, Rayburn sat in stunned silence for a moment before acknowledging Cherise\u2019s reaction as justified.<\/p>\n
Thinking about something, he shook his head and looked at Megan\u2019s photo on the desk, letting out a deep sigh.<\/p>\n
His grip on the phone tightened, his expression marked by hesitation, as though he were weighing a monumental decision.<\/p>\n
\u306a\u3044\u304b<\/p>\n
In the lab, Crow observed Cherise\u2019s actions. \u201cBoss, what\u2019s our first step? Aren\u2019t we supposed to use the birth details, like Mr. Garcia explained, to remotely counter that old hag who cursed Mr. Chivers?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d Cherise replied, their expression stern,<\/p>\n
\u201cThen what are we doing? Let me know so I can assist,\u201d Crow said stepping closer.<\/p>\n
Cherise said with grave seriousness, \u201cRetrieve the serum we saved from Morris\u2019s last sample. First, we\u2019re going to break the curse on him. I know his temperament and how he feels about me. I fear he might take his own life rather than give in.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose cursed by this magic face unbearable torment. I can\u2019t stand the thought of someone as good as him suffering like this. As for that old hag, we\u2019ll take our time. Watching her suffer lowly will be far more satisfying.<\/p>\n

Crow let out a surprised yelp and quickly headed to the serum storage unit. While walking, he asked, \u201cWait, we can break the curse without Mr. Chivers being here?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course,\u201d Cherise replied firmly. \u201cDidn\u2019t that old hag curse him remotely with just his birth details?<\/p>\n
\u201cAccording to one of the books my mentor gave me, we can use the worm taken from a deceased curse caster and let it feed on the serum of the cursed individual. This will draw out the worn inside the victim. I memorized it all.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will be my first time testing it, though. The last time I lifted the curse from Hannia, she was present. Let\u2019s hope luck is on our side.\u201d<\/p>\n
Crow exclaimed again, \u201cWill this really work?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise took Morris\u2019s serum, sat in front of the equipment, and glanced up at Crow before saying, \u201cIt has to. Fetch the cursed worm we extracted from Garrick, and let\u2019s bring it back to life. Follow the same method as before. Do it quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n
Seeing Cherise\u2019s unwavering determination, Crow hastened his movements.<\/p>\n
\u201cTweezers, alcohol burner, phenol, formaldehyde\u2026\u201d Cherise called out each item one by one, and Crow swiftly handed them over. The two worked with an intensity and focus unmatched by any prior collaboration.<\/p>\n
Three hours later, under the microscope, the once\u2013lifeless worm in the glass vial began to stir. Both of them exhaled deeply in relief. It was 5:00 a.m.<\/p>\n
\u201cBoss, no way! That cursed worm from Garrick\u2019s body is actually alive again. excitement palpable.<\/p>\n
incredible!\u201d Crow exclaimed, his<\/p>\n
Cherise stared at the now fully revived worm, the tension in her expression easing slightly.<\/p>\n
Removing her mask, she took the coffee Crow handed over, taking a large gulp to refresh herself. Then, putting the mask back on, she returned to the cold machinery.<\/p>\n
Glancing at the time, Cherise noted that dawn was near. She couldn\u2019t help but wonder how Morris was faring.<\/p>\n
Then she said, \u201cAlright, next step. I\u2019ll handle it myself. Hand me the serum, and I\u2019ll dilute it first. We need to pick up the pace. This phase might take some time.\u201d<\/p>\n
At Cherise\u2019s command, Crow quickly passed the serum over. Taking the small vial, Cherise felt the tension return to her face.<\/p>\n
She murmured under her breath, \u201cLet\u2019s hope this works on the first try. Since someone has gone to great lengths to hide your location, why don\u2019t you find me instead?\u201d<\/p>\n
Another day passed, and the sky began to brighten. Cherise had arranged everything meticulously. News of Morris\u2019s predicament hadn\u2019t leaked\u2013not even to Phoebe or Mary.<\/p>\n
