Chapter 191 Karma

Elvis exchanged a glance with his wife, Sarah, and they quickly helped Vivian to her feet.

“Don’t worry about it. We’re neighbors, after all. Let’s get along with each other!”

Amidst Vivian’s heartfelt apologies, Cherise couldn’t help but let out a heavy sigh. “Knowing that this

was bound to happen, why did you start this in the first place?”

I’m not as forgiving as Aunt Sarah or Uncle Elvis. Vivian insulted my husband-I will never forgive her for

that.

Tears streamed down Vivian’s cheeks as she pleaded, “My husband is behind bars now. I need money

to get him out of there…”

“He deserves it! If you keep going down this path, you might end up there too!” Cherise retorted.

With that, Cherise helped Damien to his feet. “Dear, let’s go feed Plumkin outside.”

“Sure,” he replied with a smile.

Finally, when both of them were out of sight, Sarah helped Vivian up from the ground. “Cherry has her

reasons for not being able to forgive you. You’d better get a divorce and start a new life.”

The next day, the village held a meeting. Eventually, they took Damien’s suggestion and. nominated

Jack as the next village chief.

With a bewildered expression, Jack held Damien’s hand and thanked him profusely before. discussing

the future plans for the village together with him.

Damien smiled. “The only reason I backed you up is in hopes that you will watch over Elvis’ family and

stop the villagers from bullying them any longer.”

Jack froze for a moment before swiftly nodding his head. “Of course! I’ll treat your uncle as my own in

the future!”

Because of this, the rest of the villagers greeted Elvis and his family with a wide smile over the next few

days.

All of a sudden, Elvis, who had never been popular, found himself at the center of attention in the

village; he received dozens of visitors every day.

“You’re really something, dear,” Cherise sighed in admiration while nestled in Damien’s arms. They

were on their way back after their vacation had ended. “No one liked the previous chief, but they dared

not speak up. I’m sure Jack will make an excellent leader. You have such a good eye!”

Damien flashed a small smile before pinching her cheeks adoringly. “Of course I do. Just look at who

my wife is!”

Cherise blushed shyly and started using her phone as a distraction.

‘Are you back, Cherry?’

‘Call me as soon as you’re back. I’ve something to tell you!”

All of a sudden, she received two texts from Ian.

Cherise’s village was quite far from Adania. Despite starting their journey back early, it was already

three in the afternoon when they arrived in the city.

Blake complained about the tiring journey and went back to his room immediately.

Meanwhile, Mr. Hampson summarized a list of work items for Damien to review.

Cherise stretched her body lazily and returned to her room to rest after letting Elvis and Sarah know

they arrived safely.

Around four in the afternoon, Ian’s call interrupted her nap.

“Cherry, you’re back, aren’t you? Where are you now?”

She yawned. “I’m taking a nap at home.”

“Haven’t I told you to call me as soon as you get back?” he reproached.

With another yawn, she replied in embarrassment, “I was thinking of meeting you instead…”

Considering that it was already late afternoon and she was feeling quite drained, Cherise hesitated.

There was a moment of silence on Ian’s end. Finally, he said, “Come meet me now. I really have

something important to tell you.”

Cherise pursed her lips and frowned. However, since he was her senior, she conceded. “Alright, then.”
