Chapter 721 Whoâs The Naïve One?
âWhen Ms. Rowen got into the accident, Ms. Ursula had pestered us to go downstairs to find roses for her sisterâ¦â The call was on loudspeaker, and Cherise could clearly hear every word.
She sipped her red wine delicately as her right hand tapped on the table lightly. She could deduce what had transpired at the hospital from the manâs words.
Rowena and Ursula had most likely seen the video on the Internet, and Rowena must have lamented not having roses. This would have prompted Ursula to command the bodyguards to accompany her in a quest for roses for her sister in a fit of indignation!
Rowena must have known that Damien had purchased all the roses in the city. Yet, she still made her sister. and the bodyguards embark on this futile search for rosesâ¦
The only plausible explanation was that Rowena wanted to be left unattended so she could get injured.
Rowena had devised an ingenious strategy to harm herself and garner sympathy.
Cherise had to acknowledge that Rowena was a formidable character, Cherise prided herself on her strong willpower but would not resort to hurting herself to put on an act.
âIâll be right there.â Damien took a deep breath and ended the call. He turned to Cherise, âIâll have Mr.
Kolson escort you home. I need to go to the hospital to see Rowena.â Damien quickly added to prevent any misunderstanding. âAfter all, Rowena saved my life. Sheâs in critical condition now, and I must head there. But donât worry, Iâll return home as soon as sheâs stable.â
Cherise offered a faint smile. Iâll come with you.â
Damien was taken aback and wrinkled his brows slightly. âI thought you wouldnât want to see herâ¦.
âI donât.â Cherise smiled at Damien. âBut she did save my husbandâs life. Even if I donât want to see her.
I should ensure sheâs stable before I feel at ease. Besides, Iâm a doctor. If someone is ill, I might be able to assist.â
Since Cherise had said as such, there was no reason for Damien not to take her along.
The man sighed lightly. âYou really havenât changed at all He raised his hand to stroke Cheriseâs head.
âYouâre still the same kind and naïve girlâ
Cherise looked up and glared at him like she did five years ago. Im not naïve at all!â
Youâre the naïve one! You donât even know that your wife was the one who saved you three years ago!
When Cherise and Damien arrived at the hospital, Rowena was still in the emergency room.
Upon seeing Cherise arrive with Damien, Ursula sprang from her chair. âWhat are you doing here?!â
She confronted Cherise angrily. âMy sister is still unconscious. If she sees you after gaining consciousness, she might faint again!â

Cherise held Damienâs arm with one hand and clutched her handbag with the other. âYour sister might faint frequently in the future.â She smiled gently at Ursula. âMs. Ursula, have you seen the news and videos online? Iâm now Damienâs fiancée, and your sister is Damienâs savior. Weâll be meeting each other a lot in the future.â
Perhaps Ursula had not expected such a response from Cherise. She was momentarily stunned before regaining her composure. âWhat do you mean, Cherise Shaw?!
âDonât you understand what Iâm saying? Cherise had a sneer in the corners of her mouth. âDo you want me to repeat it in another language? Ms Ursula, youâre just a junior high graduate. Do you even know another language? You should read more if youâre so dim-witted. Donât rely on your sisterâs merits to act like a bully. Are you even worthy
