I canât believe such a bossy person has become my sister⦠What a pain in the oss.
âCherry, please stay back,â Aaron said as Cherise was about to leave.
Cherise nodded and closed the door after everyone else had left.
âCome here. Aaron gestured for her to come to him.
âGrandpa. Cherise nibbled her lips.
âThink carefully. Whose hands did the shirt you gave me go through? Someone is trying to harm you
with this shirt.â
Cheriseâs heart warmed from Aaronâs words. âGrandpa, you donât thinkâ¦â
âI know you donât have those intentions. How can I not know my own granddaughter?â Aaron grinned at
the docile girl. âYou look just like your mother, but your silliness is just like your father!â
Cherise lowered her head shyly, âMr. Tanner⦠Oh, Daddy is not silly.â
âHow is he not? He couldnât even tell Gwenn was acting!â
Cherise was taken aback. She looked up at Aaron, âYou could tell?â
âOf course, I could! What do you take me for?â Aaron rolled his eyes and continued, âIâm Aaron Tanner,
a master in the field! That little fox is too young to be acting in front of me!â
Aaron raised his hand and caressed the swollen part of Cheriseâs face. âDoes it hurt?â

âNot at all.â The young girl shook her head and grinned at the old man, âIt doesnât hurt as long as you
believe me!â
The old man shook his head in exasperation. âOh, you. Quick. Think about whose hands this shirt has
gone through.â
Cheriseâs brows knitted together as she pondered the question.
Cherise went shopping with Frances, but Frances had left when she bought the shirt. Sunnyâs mother
might not like her, but she had already gone to the warehouse when Cherise saw the shirt. She hadnât.
had time to look at her purchases as she went straight to the kitchen to make dinner when she got
back.
Soâ¦. No one else but the shop owner couldâve done something to the shirt!
Cheriseâs eyes bulged with realization. Her teacher had said that once all the wrong answers had been
eliminated, the remaining one would be the correct answer, no matter how preposterous.

Cherise felt a chill go down her spine. She thought back to when she met the shop owner afternoon.
The lady had enthusiastically shown her around the store. After Cherise had selected two shirts, she
said she would get some new ones from the back as those were dusty. Cherise had waited at long time
for her to come back. She had even texted Lucy, saying the shop owner was so slow.
Now that she thought about it, the shop owner must have sabotaged the shirt when she went to the
back!
But⦠there wasnât any animosity between themâ¦
î
Suddenly, she thought about Sunnyâs mother. She must have done something because she worked
thereâ¦
Her body broke out in a cold sweat. She never thought that a simple shopping trip could be tainted.
with such malicious intentions.
âDoes something come to mind?â Aaron sighed and held Cheriseâs hand, âYouâre too naive.â
