Chapter 866 The Journalistic Bombshell: Gwenn’s Expose

The incident surrounding Cherise’s alleged plagiarism reached a critical juncture.

It was catalyzed by a fresh–faced journalist named Gwenn from Enigma Insight Magazine.

In a damning exposé, Gwenn not only unveiled Cherise’s purported act of plagiarism but

also shed light on her purported abandonment of medical practice while still engaging in

medical research.

Before long, luminaries from talent agencies affiliated with the Weiss Group began

disseminating the news across cyberspace.

These celebrities‘ considerable sway and devoted followings ensured the scandal

remained a burning topic online.

It had ignited fervent debates across the internet.

Cherise found her phone inundated with messages.

Laced with concern and urgency, Dr. Penn’s voice pierced through the turmoil. “Cherise,

what’s the situation? I’ve spoken with Mr. Whitlock, and it appears the allegations of

plagiarism are substantiated. I require an explanation from you.”

Heather’s distress resonated through the phone as she reached out to Cherise. “Cherise,

I’m at a loss. My coworkers are casting aspersions due to our association. I’m

contemplating resignation…”

Lucy’s message flashed on Cherise’s screen. “I’m en route to Adania. Expect me tonight.”

However, amidst this deluge of communication, an unfamiliar message caught Cherise off

guard. “Shall I handle my sister for you?” the sender queried, anonymously shrouded.

After a pause, Cherise realized the sender was none other than Yolanda’s younger brother,

Sebastian.

After a moment of contemplation, Cherise composed her response. “There’s no need, and

my husband will address it.”

“If you’re truly inclined to aid, perhaps you could persuade your sister. I possess ample

evidence to substantiate my authorship of the paper.”

She simply wished to avoid dredging up the past…

Gwenn was keenly aware of the evidence at her disposal.

She was merely relishing in Cherise’s torment.

Cherise’s actions might be understandable from a medical standpoint.

But as a daughter, Cherise had committed an unforgivable act against her deceased

mother.

Gwenn sought to lay bare all of Cherise’s vulnerabilities in front of the public eye, to brand

her as an ungrateful daughter, rendering her incapable of facing Beckham and Charisa’s

relatives..

Undoubtedly, this maneuver was malicious in nature.

With the call concluded, Cherise sought solace beneath her covers, besieged by a tumult

of emotions.

Ever since Ursula’s revelation of her paper’s theft, she had braced for the worst.

Gwenn’s expose didn’t disappoint.

“Cherise.”

Damien’s voice pierced the silence as he barged into the room, drawing Cherise from her

cocoon of distress. “I know everything,”

“Zachary told me.”

He uttered softly, enfolding her in his embrace. “This isn’t your fault.”

“No, it is,”

Cherise countered, tears welling in her eyes. “If only I hadn’t acquiesced to my mother’s

wish… Perhaps she wouldn’t have departed so soon.”

Memories of Charisa’s encouraging smile flooded Cherise’s mind.

“Silly girl, Mom is more than willing to be your patient. Even if it doesn’t yield the desired

outcome, it’s still valuable experience, right?”

“Considering you’ve already succeeded in your experiments on animals, let Mom be first

human patient.”

“After all, who could be more suitable than Mom, right?”

“It’s indirectly my fault Mom’s gone…”

Cherise lay cradled in Damien’s embrace, her voice heavy with sorrow. “Throughout these

years, I’ve borne an immense burden…”

“Zachary continually attempts to reassure me, insisting it was Mom’s decision and not

mine…”

“Yet, I cannot shake this gnawing guilt within me…”
