Chapter 289 She Has a Strange Taste
âSince she likes looking at me, let her look all she wants.â
With that, Cherise looked in front and held her pen. She continued to focus on the lecture and
make notes.
Once the classes ended in the evening, Jessie rushed over and blocked Cheriseâs way. âLucy and
waited at New World Restaurant that night.â
you
Cherise frowned and nodded. âYes, we did.â
Jessie sneered, âYou two are truly shameless.â
âWho are you calling shameless?â Lucy tried to slap Jessieâs cheek.
However, Jessie dodged it easily.
Mandy came over and grabbed hold of Jessie. âJessie.â
Then, she turned her cold gaze on Cherise and Lucy. âDonât waste your breath on these people.â
Jessie glared at Cherise viciously before turning around and leaving.
Rodney frowned as he watched them go. âThey areâ¦â
âItâs nothing to do with you.â
Lucy furrowed her brow and looked at him. âArenât you going to introduce me to your bros? Letâs go.â
Then, she turned to Cherise apologetically. âRodney and I have another matter. Weâll be leaving first.â
Cherise frowned. âWhere are you going?â
âWeâre going to a bar.â
Rodney explained, âI had pursued Lucy for more than a year. Now, she finally agreed to be my
girlfriend. When my friends learned about this, they asked to meet her and congratulate us.â
Cherise pursed her lips. âButâ¦â
Since his friends want to congratulate them, why meet at the barâ¦
Isnât it noisy?
Furthermore, he had pursued Lucy for a year. Doesnât he know how strict her father is? She would
never go to
a bar

âIll be fine.â
Lucy knew what Cherise was thinking. âIâm now Rodneyâs girlfriend. I should accommodate to their
preferences.â
Then, she winked at Cherise to assure her. âDonât worry. No one can do anything to me.â
âBesides, Rodney will be with me.â
Rodney nodded immediately. âDonât worry, Cherry. Iâll protect Lucy.â
Then, he put the barâs name card in Cheriseâs hand. âWeâll be going here. If youâre still worried. you can
join us.â
âForget it.â
Lucy waved her hands. âHer husband would blow up the bar if she were to go there with strangers.â
âFor the safety of that bar, itâs better that she doesnât go.â
Cherise was rendered speechless.
Is my husband that scary?
At the same time, a silver Maybach appeared and traveled toward her.
She waved at Lucy and Rodney. âNever mind, I wonât be going to the bar.
âYou two, be careful.â
Then, she turned to Rodney firmly. âMake sure nothing happens to her. Do you hear me?â
Rodney chuckled and nodded in agreement.
The car stopped before Cherise.
She opened the door and sat in the front passenger seat.
Damien raised an eyebrow quizzically. âWhoâs that hideous man?â
Cherise was surprised by the question. Then, she realized he was talking about Rodney.
She cleared her throat. âHubby, be nice.â
âHeâs Rodney, Lucyâs boyfriend.â
âOh.â
Damien placed a hand on the steering wheel. He smiled vaguely as he glanced in Lucyâs direction.

âShe has a strange taste.â
Cherise was rendered speechless.
Still, she could not deny that Rodneyâs appearance did him no favors.
âBut heâs good to Lucy.â
Cherise pursed her lips. She gained a more favorable opinion of Rodney after being with him all day.
âHe pursued Lucy for over a year. Thatâs an admirable persistence.â
âHe also cared for me today because Iâm Lucyâs best friend.â
âHeâs bringing Lucy to a bar tonight to introduce her to his friends. He must be serious about their
relationship.â
