Chapter 56<\/p>\n
Right after Dora took off, it was just Morris and Cherise again.<\/p>\n
\u201cCherise, let\u2019s rolll\u201d Morris said, his voice tinged with urgency.<\/p>\n
Cherise nodded, and they made their way to the elevator, which whisked them down to the lobby, Out front, the valet had Cherise\u2019s Porsche Panamera waiting, parked curbside.<\/p>\n
Morris gave Cherise\u2019s new ride a once\u2013over. It was a nice car, but could use some personal flair. He decided then and there to get her a custom job later on, for safety reasons.<\/p>\n
Jingling the keys, Cherise offered, \u201cWant me to drive?\u201d<\/p>\n
Morris flashed her a warm smile and said, \u201cYou take the helm. And with that, they got into the car.<\/p>\n
Cherise started the engine, released the electronic brake, and smoothly shifted into gear. With a series of swift moves, the car hummed to life and eased away from the curb.<\/p>\n
Melissa, just stepping out of the lobby, spotted the Porsche Panamera as it pulled away. She hesitated, thinking. Is that Morris! That profile looks just like him. No, it can\u2019t be<\/p>\n
She shook her head, brushing off the thought. No way that\u2019s Morris. And the driver\u2019s a woman. That\u2019s a sure sigu. I must be going crazy with all this stress, she pondered.<\/p>\n
In the car, Morris watched Cherise expertly maneuver through traffic, a grin playing on his lips. This was a new one for him -being driven by a girl, and he had to admit that it was pretty cool.<\/p>\n
y to find out that his own daughter, the one he\u2019d left on her own in Yasvissa, was such an amazing<\/p>\n
Jacob would be blown away to driver.<\/p>\n
\u201cCherise, you drive like you\u2019ve been doing this forever. Morris complimented her.<\/p>\n
With a humble smile, she replied, \u201cIt\u2019s just a car. Nothing to write home about. Mr. Chivers, you\u2019ll have to deal with it.\u201d Morris turned to her, and a soft laugh escaped him.<\/p>\n
Cherise drove with speed and precision, and in the blink of an eye, they were at Glenshire Gardens. After parking, they took the levator up to the 26th floor.<\/p>\n
As<\/p>\n
the<\/p>\n
reached the top, Cherise mentioned to Morris, \u201cT\u2019ve got to run an errand tomorrow morning, but I\u2019ll head over to<\/p>\n
rs residence to meet your grandma afterward.\u201d<\/p>\n
Miris nodded and said, \u201cGot it. I\u2019ll be there.\u201d Then they exchanged goodnight wishes and went their separate ways for the night.<\/p>\n
Early the next morning, sunrise was breaking as Cherise wrapped up her morning fog and made her way back home.<\/p>\n
She changed into a breezy white cotton\u2013linen dress, the perfect summer attire. With an orange scarf, she tied her long into a loose braid that hung over her chest<\/p>\n
hair<\/p>\n
In front of the mirror, she added a playful touch with daisy\u2013shaped earrings and kept on her reliable white canvas sneakers. Armed with the pills she\u2019d whipped up a few days ago, she set off from Glenshire Gardens.<\/p>\n
Her Porsche Panamera cruised down the highway, and in a flash, she reached the base of Azure Peak. Instead of heading to<\/p>\n

Chapter 36<\/p>\n
the Chivers residence, Cherise swung by the Taylor residence fir.<\/p>\n
Zell, the security guard at the Taylor residence, brightened at the sight of Cherise\u2019s car. He quickly opened the gate, his voice filling the air \u201cMs. Leach, it\u2019s you!\u201c<\/p>\n
As Cherise parked and stepped out, Lucky, a huge Alaskan Malamute, came bounding over. The dog paused by Cherise\u2019s side, mudging her dress affectionately.<\/p>\n
Cherise looked down with a tender smile on her face. \u201cLucky, did you miss me?\u201d She asked, smoothing Lucky\u2019s thick fur.<\/p>\n
Zell chimed in. \u201cMs. Leach, when you first went back to Saphira Lucky here was lost without you. He wouldn\u2019t eat a thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Taylor had to show him your picture to get him to nibble at all. But he\u2019s back to her old self now and grown from that tiny pup into this gentle giant, almost as tall as me,\u201d Zell added.<\/p>\n
Hearing that, Cherise hummed with a warmth spreading through her.<\/p>\n
Lucky had been a gift to Marlon from a student. A few years back, Marlon had taken him to Saphira, but he\u2019d gotten was in danger from stray dogs.<\/p>\n
Cherise had come to the rescue, saving Lucky and finding homes for the strays. Since then, Lucky had been Cherise\u2019s biggest fan, always wagging his tail excitedly at the sight of her.<\/p>\n
Cherise looked at Zell and asked, \u201cWhere\u2019s Grandpa Marlon?\u201d<\/p>\n
lost and<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the backyard. He\u2019s been looking forward to your visit. He\u2019s going to be thrilled to see you, Zell replied, grinning ear to<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, let\u2019s go find him, Lucky Cherise said, and together, they walked towards the backyard.<\/p>\n
Marlon was a prominent philologist in Clusia, and the Taylor family was a true scholarly household.<\/p>\n
As Cherise passed through the main gate, she was greeted by a library filled with rare books and treasures. She strolled dow<\/p>\n
a long hallway, adorned with paintings from famous artists, leading to the Taylor residence\u2019s backyard.<\/p>\n
In the backyard, bathed in morning light, Marlon, his hair a crown of white, was dressed in a deep brown ensemble, carefully pacing the cobblestones barefoot.<\/p>\n
Lucky barked a couple of times to get Marlon\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n
lon turned at the sound, spotting Cherise. \u201cOh, Cherise, there you are! Why didn\u2019t you give me a call? I\u2019d have Viola coo<\/p>\n
mething special. Oh, my feet. It\u2019s killing me. Come on. Give me a hand.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise let out a laugh and hurried over. \u201cWhat happened to your hair? It\u2019s gone all silver in just two years. And why are you walking barefoot on these stones?\u201d She guided Marlon to a flat surface and helped him slip his shoes on.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m getting on in years, my dear. If I don\u2019t keep moving, these old legs will seize up on me. In a few more years, you youngsters will be complaining about us old\u2013timers slowing you down,\u201d Marlon jested, leading the way back into the house.<\/p>\n
