Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 619 Cheriseâs Unexpected Generosity
Cherise furrowed her brow as she opened the tester and asked, âMs. Miles?â
Ms. Miles was known for her extravagant lifestyle.
âAh, isnât this my dear little sister, Cherry?â
Before she could turn around, the woman behind her had already recognized Cherise.
Cherise smirked, and it was indeed her.
She took a deep breath, closed the trial pack, turned around, and glanced at the woman. standing at the door.
At that moment, Kareen leaned against the beauty shop door, arms crossed. Her deep brown eyes were coldly
fixed on Cherise, and she quipped, âDame mentioned that you, Cherry, were a serious and responsible doctor with
no interest in makeup.â
âWhy are you here buying lipstick?â
âCherise, did you suddenly notice that her face had aged after having a child and was trying to fix it?â
Accustomed to Kareenâs sharp tongue and irrational behavior, Cherise had no intention of arguing with her. âI was
just buying lipstick, Ms. Miles; youâre overthinking,â she asserted.
âIndeed, I rarely wear makeup. I looked better than Ms. Miles even without it.â
Kareenâs eyes blazed, and anger heated her blood.
âWhat are you implying, Cherise?â
She glared at Cherise; she was about to explode with rage and seethed, âAre you insinuating that Iâm ugly?â
âNot at all.â
Cherise responded with a reticent smile, raised her hand, and handed the lipstick she had just tried to the
receptionist, âIâll take one in this color.â
The receptionist took it and quickly walked away.
Only then did Cherise glance at Kareen standing at the door. âI was merely stating the truth,â Cherise said brazenly.
âIâm not wearing any makeup at the moment, Ms. Miles. You can tell the difference between you with makeup and
me without it.â
âAlso, donât put words in my mouth. I never said you look ugly⦠thatâs your assumption.â
With that, the woman stifled a yawn, directed a casual gaze at Kareen, and chided, âUsually, Ms. Miles would
dramatically exit at this point.â
âShe avoids stooping to my level but lacks a convincing argument.â
âBut now Ms. Miles is still here⦠do you want me to buy you lipstick?â
After saying that, she turned to the receptionist who was fetching her lipstick and said, âGet me another one in that
color; wrap it up for this lady.â
Kareen was red with rage, standing at the door as her hands clenched tightly.
Cherise didnât know what was good for her!
If it werenât for the fact that she was Rebeccaâs biological daughter, she would have torn her apart today.
âMs. Miles.â
A clerk who knew Kareen well approached her slowly and whispered, âDonât let her get under your skinâ¦â
âI can assure you, the lipstick she was eyeing is our latest addition, and as for the priceâ¦â
She appraised Cheriseâs appearance, noting her modest and slightly worn attire, âIn any case, itâs definitely beyond
the means of someone with her income.â
âLet alone two; one could already bankrupt her!â
Kareenâs eyes flashed.
She knew that although Cherise was the daughter of Charisa and Beckham and came from a distinguished
background, she was not one to rely on her familyâs wealth.
In Lermille, nobody knew her true identity; they only saw her as a humble and ordinary doctor.
Cherise never used the money from Milesâs family and the Tanner familyâ¦
Someone like Cherise wouldnât have enough money to buy these expensive luxuries.
She had set herself up for embarrassment
by coming to this place to shop.
As Kareen lazily stretched, she sneered and said sarcastically, âIf Ms. Shaw is enough to buy me lipstick, Iâll
graciously accept.â
