Chapter 67<\/p>\n
An hour ago, Leo had wrapped up his call with Enya and dove into a meeting, promptly forgetting her request<\/p>\n
The department\u2019s projects had hit some snags, and Morris had been letting everyone know it during the meeting. Steven and Leo felt the brunt of it. The room was so tense you could cut it with a knife.<\/p>\n
Later, a WhatsApp message from Enya pinged on Leo\u2019s phone. Has Cherise arrived?] That was when it hit him\u2013Cherise was coming to drop something off.<\/p>\n
Feeling the sudden urgency, Leo straightened and approached Morris. \u201cMr. Chivers, I need to step out for a sec.\u201d<\/p>\n
Morris frowned, visibly annoyed. \u201cCan\u2019t it wait?\u201d<\/p>\n
Concerned about Cherise waiting and Morris\u2019s potential anger, Leo pulled out his phone, opened his chat with Enya, and showed it to Morris,<\/p>\n
Morris glanced at the phone, looking ready to blow. But then, he bolted upright and rushed out of the meeting room. Leo was quick to follow, leaving Steven and a room of baffled executives behind.<\/p>\n
Steven looked around at the executives and let out an awkward laugh. \u201cNo clue what\u2019s up with Mr. Chivers, but let\u2019s just sit tight. I\u2019ll go see what\u2019s happening\u201d With that, he hurried after Morris.<\/p>\n
Exiting the elevator into the grand lobby, Morris spotted Cherise in the corner. With her head down, she was engrossed in at peace that he approached quietly, not wanting to disturb her. her phone. She seemed so<\/p>\n
The receptionist and others in the lobby did a double\u2013take at Morris\u2019s unexpected arrival and behavior.<\/p>\n
Brenda, the receptionist with a bun, gasped, \u201cMr. Chivers is heading right for my idol! Told you, who can resist her stunning looks?<\/p>\n
A passerby muttered, \u201cAnother clueless woman is trying to get close to Mr. Chivers. Bet she gets kicked out soon.\u201d Another onlooker added, \u201cThis is like the umpteenth woman this month coming to Chivers Group for Mr. Chivers. But this one\u2019s lucky; she actually gets to see him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cecilia said, \u201cI think they know each other. Look, Mr. Chivers is closing in, and your idol is looking up.\u201d<\/p>\n
Brenda said with a grin, \u201cOh my, they look perfect together. A match made in heaven! I\u2019m shipping them already!\u201d Meanwhile, Cherise was going over the Betrico University onboarding documents from Trent when she noticed a pair of shiny black leather shoes<\/p>\n
Looking up, she saw Morris. She smiled with dimples on her face and asked, \u201cYou\u2019re here? Isn\u2019t this the time for your meeting?\u201d<\/p>\n
Morris glanced at the seat next to her, sat down, and said, \u201cThe meeting can wait. Why didn\u2019t you come up to see me?\u201d Cherise replied earnestly, \u201cI don\u2019t have an appointment, and your company has its rules. The staff said too many pretty women come to see you, and they were worried about more harassment, so they asked me to wait here,\u201d<\/p>\n
Morris\u2019s mood seemed to sink even lower as he thought, Cherise was actually turned away!\u201d<\/p>\n
But then Cherise continued, \u201cBus the receptionists at Chivers Group are really nice. They were just following the rules: They treated me well and even gave me candy.\u201d She opened her palm to show Morris the candy and smiled.<\/p>\n
Morris, who had been radiating gloom, instantly brightened at Cherise\u2019s sweet smile. He called out to Steven and signaled<\/p>\n

him to bring the receptionists over.<\/p>\n
82%<\/p>\n
Steven nodded and called the two receptionists over. The young women, seeing Morris\u2019s commanding presence, felt their knees go weak and their confidence waver.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, no. I\u2019m in trouble. My legs are like jelly. It looks like your idol and Mr. Chivers know each other, and we didn\u2019t let her up. She must have complained,\u201d Cecilia said, trembling.<\/p>\n
Though unsure, Brenda insisted, \u201cNo, my idol is different from the others. She\u2019s not like the rest.\u201d<\/p>\n
As they approached, before Morris could say anything, Cherise stood up and walked toward them.<\/p>\n
