Chapter 61<\/p>\n
Calm and composed, Phoebe sipped her coffee. Then, picking up on Melissa\u2019s discomfort, she said, \u201cCherise, you\u2019re twenty- six this year, aren\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Melissa aflirmed with a nod. \u201cYeah, two years younger than Morris, she replied to the point.<\/p>\n
Right after, Phoebe, with a serious expression, advised, \u201cYour parents should be scouting out a good match for you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe don\u2019t rush into marriage in our business, and as everyone knows, I\u2019m interested in Morris. My parents actually want me to ask for your blessing first,\u201d Melissa said, her cheeks flushing as he lowered her head.<\/p>\n
Phoebe sighed and said, \u201cYou know, Morris has always been one to make his own decisions, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. I\u2019d hate for him to resent me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBut in our circles, there\u2019s no such thing as marriage freedom. Its all about what the parents say and the matchmakers\u2018 words. Besides, Morris respects you. Can\u2019t you have a say?\u201d Melissa said, a soft laugh escaping her lips.<\/p>\n
Phoebe set down her coffee cup, a faint smile playing on her lips \u201cWe\u2019re in the 21st century. The old ways should be left behind. I\u2019m open\u2013minded about it; aren\u2019t you young ones supposed to be even more so?\u201d<\/p>\n
Before Melissa could respond, Phoebe yawned. \u2018Oh dear, I\u2019m getting old and feeling tired. I\u2019m going to take a nap. Enya. when Ms. Chambers leaves, make sure she takes her gifts with her!\u201d Phoebe said, stifling another yawn<\/p>\n
Seeing this, Melissa didn\u2019t dare to push it further, but she clenched her hands tightly, feeling a strange discomfort. It was clear to her that Phoebe was giving her the brush\u2013off.<\/p>\n
After Phoebe retired to her room, Enya had the supplements Melissa brought returned to her car, untouched.<\/p>\n
Melissa politely bid Enya farewell, and once inside her car, she sped off from the Chivers residence.<\/p>\n
As soon as she left the Chivers residence, Melissa drove straight to the Horipines River bridge at the foot of Azure Peak, slammed on the brakes, and turned off the engine. Then her previously warm demeanor changed drastically.<\/p>\n
Melissa got out of the car, stood on the Horipines River bridge, and looked at the turbulent river below, her face showing<\/p>\n
anger.<\/p>\n
In the next moment, she took out the bags of supplements from her trunk, walked to the edge of the bridge, and threw them all into the river.<\/p>\n
As the rapid current gradually swallowed the red gift boxes, Melissa\u2019s expression gradually improved.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the whole of Betrico, the only one who can match Morris is me, the young lady of the Chambers family!\u201d Melissa vowed.<\/p>\n
She added, \u201cAs for Phoebe, you\u2019re just a clinging old woman. Today\u2019s visit was entirely out of respect for your grandson Without Morris, you\u2019re nothing. Once you\u2019re gone, I\u2019ll be the closest woman to Morris.\u201d<\/p>\n
After saying this, a smile slowly formed on her lips. Melissa put on her sunglasses, got in her car, started the engine, and drove away.<\/p>\n
On the other side, Enya entered Phoebe\u2019s room to see her taking the pills given by Cherise.<\/p>\n
Phoebe took a sip of water, swallowed, and then asked, \u201cHas she left?\u201d<\/p>\n
Enya nodded and said, \u201cYes, she just left. Her expression was fine, still gentle as ever.\u201d<\/p>\n
Phoebe said, \u201cShe\u2019s been in the entertainment industry for so long; managing her expression is a piece of cake for her. No idea what she\u2019s really thinking, though. She must be furious with me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chapter 61<\/p>\n
Enya asked in confusion, \u201cMrs. Chivers, don\u2019t you like Ms. Chambers?\u201d<\/p>\n
Phoebe shook her head gently and said, \u201cNo, she\u2019s not straightforward, and I can\u2019t read her. Definitely not as straightforward as she seems. What do you think, Enya?\u201d<\/p>\n
Enya also shook her head, \u201cI don\u2019t like her, either. Ms. Chambers gives off a condescending vibe, not approachable at all. I prefer Ms. Leach: not only is she beautiful, but she\u2019s also very comforting to be around.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course, the person Morris takes a liking to won\u2019t be just anyone. With her looks, character, and medical skills, she\u2019s as charming as I was in my youth,\u201d Phoebe said with a proud expression.<\/p>\n
Enya looked puzzled, \u201cHuh? Mrs. Chivers, are you saying Mr. Chivers is interested in Cherise? I\u2019ve heard my son mention it, but I thought it was unlikely. Now that you say it, Mr. Chivers does seem to have a special interest in Ms. Leach!\u201d<\/p>\n
Phoebe confidently said, \u201cAbsolutely. I raised that cold fish since he was little. He might be aloof, but I can see right through his schemes.\u201d<\/p>\n
She added, \u201cHas he ever been this proactive with any girl before The CEO of Chivers Group needs a ride, huh? Only Cherise would buy his excuse.\u201d Phoebe said, covering her mouth and giggling.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut sometimes Cherise seems colder than that cold fish, probably because she\u2019s younger and still innocent about matters of the heart. I hope that cold fish can warm her heart soon!\u201d Phoebe added, her eyes twinkling with mischief<\/p>\n
