Chapter 297 Do You Like Her?
Cherise was shocked to see so many lenses in the box. âHow⦠do I use theseâ¦â
âItâs written in the manual.â
Lennon switched to a more comfortable sitting position and accepted a cup of tea from Frances.
âWhereâs Damien?â
âHe went upstairs for a video conference after lunch.â
Cherise flipped through the manual curiously. âErm, apertureâ¦
Lennon looked at her confused expression and chuckled. âWhy do you suddenly wish to learn.
photography?â
âI was shocked when Damien called me. I didnât expect a country bumpkin to pick up a sophisticated hobby suddenly.â
Cherise rolled her eyes. âItâs not without a good reason.â
Cherise flipped through the manual and continued, âRodney and Lucy will join the photography clubâs village cultural appreciation trip in a few days. Iâm worried about Lucy, so Iâll follow them.â
The atmosphere in the living room immediately turned tense.
However, Cherise did not seem to notice. She yawned and continued calmly, âSince Iâm going on a photography club activity, I canât just stand there and do nothing.â
She picked up the camera and started playing with it. âI need to learn photography even if itâs for show.â
âAfter all, Iâll be there for three days, two nights. It will be weird if Iâm the only one just standing. there idly.â
Lennon narrowed his eyes dangerously. âIs Damien okay with you going?â
âYes.â
Cherise nodded and smiled at Lennon. âBlake is going with me. Iâll be safe.â
No one would dare bother her with Blake around.
âWhat about Lucy?â Lennon asked.
âIâll watch over her.â
âYou?â
Lennon sneered. âGive me the photography clubâs phone numberâ
Cherise was stunned. âWhy?â
âI was to join this trip.â
âHow old are you?â
Cherise shook her head. âThe participants are all students, but youâre a working adult. People will object even if you try to register for it.â
âGood point.â
Lennon laughed dangerously. âGive me the address of the village youâll be going.â
Cherise rolled her eyes. âWhat are you planning to do?â
âLucy had to coax Rodney for a long time because you beat him up.â
âIf not for what happened at the bar, Lucy would never agree to go on this trip with Rodney.â
Cherise furrowed her brow. âLennon, what is wrong with you?â
âYou refused Lucyâs love confession, saying that you dislike her. You even went on a blind date.â
âYet, you keep making things difficult for Lucy.â
Lennon narrowed his eyes. âAre you saying you trust Rodney?â
âI donât trust him.â
Cherise continued frankly, âI donât think heâs a good person. However, Lucy thinks heâs decent. and said Iâm prejudiced against him.â
âThatâs why I can only protect her in secret.â
âAs her friend, this is something I should do.â
Then, she looked at Lennon. âBut what about you?â
âDo you like her or not?â
Lennon did not answer her question.
He tossed the things to Cherise. âShe can debase herself if she wants. Itâs nothing to do with me.â
He got up and headed upstairs sullenly.
Cherise rolled her eyes at him.
Still annoyed, she glared at him.
Somethingâs wrong with him!
Lucy got together with a guy who pursued her for over a year. How is that debasing herself?
Even though Cherise felt Rodney was unworthy of Lucy, she was only a third party. Thus, she might not understand him as well as Lucy did.
Similarly, Ian used to think that Damien was unworthy of herself and thought he was a bad person.
However, Cherise knew how much Damien loved and cared about her.
