Chapter 492<\/p>\n
Just when everyone thought the matter was over, Cherise spoke slowly and calmly. \u201cWho said it\u2019s settled? Being criticized so much and then letting it go wouldn\u2019t be fair to us, would it?\u201d<\/p>\n
Lucia felt awkward. \u201cBut\u2026 Ms. Jarrett, who brought you here, didn\u2019t say anything. Why are you still holding on to this?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWho\u2019s really holding onto this? Cherise\u2019s expression suddenly darkened, her tone serious as she addressed her.<\/p>\n
Stella, noticing the sudden shift in atmosphere, stepped forward. \u201cCherise, right? I wasn\u2019t sure what happened earlier in the fitting room, but if Lucia has misunderstood you, I\u2019ll apologize on her behalf.<\/p>\n
\u201cMaybe, for Jean\u2019s sake, we can let this go. She is the wife of the diplomat from Hesperia to Clusia.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise said nothing, simply staring at Stella.<\/p>\n
Stella, for a brief moment, felt a sense of awe from the young woman standing before her.<\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t because of Cherise\u2019s beauty, but because of the aura she exuded.<\/p>\n
The presence was unique, one that even someone like Stella, who had spent years moving through political circles, rarely encountered. It gave off an almost overwhelming pressure.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s the diplomat\u2019s wife?\u201d Cherise said with a slightly indifferent tone.<\/p>\n
Lucia and Stella thought that, considering Lucia\u2019s status, Cherise might back down, and they could settle this matter without<\/p>\n
any<\/p>\n
further conflict.<\/p>\n
To their surprise, Cherise continued, \u201cNo wonder she\u2019s acting so high\u2013handed. But, this is Clusia, not Hesperia. For her to be so presumptuous and pushy without understanding the full truth of the matter\u2026<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I guess the Hesperian diplomats don\u2019t have the best taste when it comes to choosing their wives.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lucia, clearly offended, shot back. \u201cYou\u2026 You\u2019re also the one being arrogant!\u201d<\/p>\n
She pointed at Cherise, then directed the blame toward Jean.<\/p>\n
Jean, having grown up somewhat familiar with political affairs, couldn\u2019t help but interject. \u201cMa\u2019am, why are you pointing at<\/p>\n
me?<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not sure what Ms. Walton just said to you, but I understand why you\u2019re saying that. Honestly, it was Cherise who brought me here.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
\u201cThe shopkeeper allowed us in because of her. So, I think you owe her an apology for your unfounded actions.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lucia\u2019s eyes widened in disbelief, and Stella hesitated for a moment.<\/p>\n
Clearly, they had misunderstood the situation, thinking that Jean had used her influence to get Cherise inside.<\/p>\n
Maybe it was because they had been in Hesperia for so long that they were unaware of the current situation in Clusia.<\/p>\n
At that moment, Xenia, who had just finished her business, hurried down the stairs. As soon as she saw the scene, she spoke up. \u201cWhat\u2019s going on here?<\/p>\n
\u201cHuh? Cherise, what are you doing here? Hurry up. I\u2019ve been waiting for you for ages. Jean came along too? Great, I just ordered three cups of coffee.\u201d<\/p>\n
As she came downstairs, she couldn\u2019t help asking when she saw the situation.<\/p>\n

Chapter 492<\/p>\n
Xenia arrived and was immediately recognized by the waitstaff. Good afternoon, Ms. Taylor.\u201d<\/p>\n
The customers knew her well, as Xenia\u2019s posters were displayed throughout the store.<\/p>\n
But everyone was puzzled, wondering how Xenia seemed to be so familiar with the beautiful young woman who had just had a confrontation with Lucia,<\/p>\n
Xenia walked straight up to Cherise and threw her arm around her shoulder.<\/p>\n
Cherise, seeing Xenia\u2019s friendly gesture, didn\u2019t pull away. She allowed Xenia to embrace her with a playful smile. \u201cIt\u2019s nothing, just a loudmouth blocking the way,\u201d Cherise said.<\/p>\n
Everyone watching them could see the closeness between them, and it became clear to them all what was really going on.<\/p>\n
Lucia, realizing she had angered the wrong person, began to regret her actions.<\/p>\n
Jean had already filled Xenia in on everything that had happened.<\/p>\n
Xenia, being such a loyal supporter of Cherise and seeing her as an idol, wasn\u2019t about to let this go.<\/p>\n
Furiously, Xenia turned to Lucia. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter who you are or which country\u2019s diplomat\u2019s wife you are. With that kind of behavior, it\u2019s hard to imagine how many people you\u2019ve bullied<\/p>\n
\u201cSo what if Cherise came into Taylor Vogue without an invitation? If she wanted the whole store, I\u2019d gladly give it to her. And by the way, many of the clothes you just tried on were designed by Cherise.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe overall design of Taylor Vogue\u2019s interior is her work too. Haven\u2019t you heard that there\u2019s always someone better? Look at you, all sharp and nasty. How dare you mock others?\u201d<\/p>\n
When Xenia spoke, everyone was stunned.<\/p>\n
No one had expected Cherise to be the mastermind behind Taylor Vogue\u2019s design.<\/p>\n
One customer, standing a little further away, recognized Cherise and called out. \u201cWait. She\u2019s Mr. Morris\u2018 wife, Cherise, also the famous architect Duskson. No wonder I\u2019ve always loved Taylor Vogue\u2019s design. It was Duskson\u2019s work!\u201d<\/p>\n
As soon as Duskson and Morris were mentioned, the realization hit everyone, especially Stella, who hadn\u2019t been in Clusia for nearly ten years. She now understood Cherise\u2019s true identity.<\/p>\n
Stella hadn\u2019t initially connected the dots. Jean\u2019s cousin was Morris, the son of the late Hilda Jarrett, and one of the wealthiest and most influential men in Clusia.<\/p>\n
Lucia knew him as well. She was from Clusia, and her husband often spoke about Morris.<\/p>\n
Lucia now realized there was no way out of this situation.<\/p>\n
Xenia kept pushing Lucia to apologize, while Cherise\u2019s intimidating gaze bore down on her.<\/p>\n
Lucia, feeling helpless, turned to Stella for support. \u201cStella, what should I do?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u3069\u3093\u3061<\/p>\n
Stella paused for a moment, then stepped up to Cherise. \u201cMrs. Leach, right? Hello, I really didn\u2019t expect to meet you here. I<\/p>\n
with Hilda, Morris\u2019s mother. grew up<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s a few years older than me and always took great care of me. You really are beautiful. Morris is so lucky to have you. a shame that Hilda didn\u2019t live long enough to see you.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-515","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/515","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=515"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
