Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 706 Soren Did This?
After her results were revealed, she wept uncontrollably, fearing for her sisterâs safety and feeling helpless.
However, Damien remained unmoved, glancing at Rowena indifferently before turning to Cherise. âCan you please
take a look?â
Furrowing her brows, Cherise walked slowly to the table where a half-filled glass of water sat. Ursula, furious,
exclaimed, âMy sister is too trusting! Look at this glass of water. It has particles of medicine floating in it!â
Cherise picked up the glass, held it against the light, and scrutinized it. Indeed, there were tiny white. medicine
particles floating in it. Rowena should not have overlooked such blatant evidence that her drink had been tampered
with.
Pursing her lips, Rowena turned to Frances and asked, âFrances, did you do this?â
âI⦠I didnât!â Frances fell to her knees in fear. âActually⦠Soren⦠handed me this glass of water.â
âHe said that⦠that it was careless of me not to serve water to the guests at home, so he poured the water and
asked me to bring it upâ¦â
The veins on Cheriseâs forehead twitched violently. Soren⦠did this?
Cherise left the guest room and opened the door to Soren and Serafinaâs room.
At that moment, Soren and Serafina were lying on either side of Elvis, listening to him tell them a story.
Upon seeing Cherise enter, Soren looked up at her guiltily. âMom⦠Mommy, why are you here?â Cherise instantly
knew from his guilty demeanor that he had done it.
Although the boy was as clever and mature as his dad, he still inherited some of Cheriseâs traits, such as not being
able to lie convincingly.
Composing herself, Cherise looked at Soren with anger and frustration. âYou better come here and explain what
you put in the water you gave Frances before I lose my temper.â
Elvis, basking in the admiration of the two children, frowned slightly. âCherise, why are you so angry?â He
looked up at Cherise, somewhat a âSoren is so well-behaved that he noticed Frances hadnât served
the guests any drinks. He specifically went downstairs to pour water for them. Your son is so considerate. You
shouldnât speak to him in such a tone. What if you frighten him?â
Elvisâs words made Cherise sigh in exasperation. She restrained herself from revealing the truth behind Sorenâs
hospitableâ act for Rowena.
After all, as a mother, she also hoped that others would have a positive impression of her son. Therefore, she took
a deep breath, smiled at Soren, and spoke gently, âCome here. I have something to discuss with
you.â
Realizing that the truth was about to be revealed, Soren shrank back. He carefully got up from Elvisâ side and
followed Cherise to the corridor, feeling aggrieved.
When they were in the corridor, Cherise pulled Soren into the study room and slammed the door shut with a bang.
âTell me. What did you put in the water?â
