Chapter 66: Chapter 66: The Boyfriend Descends Chapter 66: Chapter 66: The Boyfriend Descends Cherish Turner couldnât help but grip her phone tightly, feeling a little nervous.
âUm, Iâ¦â
âNot saying? Then Iâll find you myself. But if I do find you, youâll be responsible for the consequences.â
âNo no no, Iâm at Evergrand!â Cherish wasnât oblivious to William Griffithâs abilities. If he really came looking for her on his own, he might humiliate her in front of others and make it impossible for her to save face!
William Griffithâs beautiful fingers gripped the steering wheel as he drove around the bustling city. Once he had locked onto his target, his lips finally curved into a smile.
âIâll be there in ten minutes.â
With that, he hung up the phone.
Cherish carefully pulled the phone from her ear. Yet his words seemed to linger in her heart, refusing to dissipate.
Cherish glanced at Daniel Peacock, then at the girl beside him, and suddenly laughed.
She walked over.
âMiss, since you like this cufflink, I wonât contend with you. After all, itâs hard to buy what one truly likes.â
She generously returned the cufflinks to the girl, her gaze no longer lingering on Daniel Peacock beside her.
Some feelings, ones she thought she would cherish for a lifetime, could actually be let go with such ease and clarity when their time was up.
For this, Cherish truly admired herself.
âThank you. May I ask what your name is? Letâs be friends.â
âActually, Iâm a friend of Mr. Peacock here, but he doesnât seem to remember me.â Cherish laughed, looking at Daniel. At this moment, Daniel felt even more guilty.
âCherish⦠Iâ¦â
âSo you do remember me, thatâs good.â Cherish smiled, her tone free of resentment, as if they had never been in love before.
âI thought I recognized the wrong person just now, but it seems I didnât. Daniel, why didnât you introduce your fiancée?â
At this point, the girl turned towards Daniel Peacock: âSo you two know each other! Daniel, why didnât you say so?â Laughing, she looped her arm through the manâs and confidently introduced herself: âHello, Cherish. My name is Abigail Johnson. Itâs nice to meet you.â
Cherish shook hands with her, smiling, her eyes warming up. Elijah Butler sighed at her side, thinking how self-torturing Cherish Turner could be when she wanted to!
After a brief exchange, Abigail Johnson took a liking to Cherish and wanted to continue shopping with her.
When Daniel Peacock initially saw Cherish, he was genuinely afraid she would reveal everything between them to Abigail. Fortunately, she didnât.
âCherish, are you picking out a gift for your boyfriend? I noticed youâve been shopping in the menâs section. If you need help picking something out, Iâd be happy to help as a way of thanking you for your generosity!â
âNo need, I can help Cherish pick. As for you, Miss Johnson, you should stick with your fiancé. Weâre pressed for time and need to get going!â
Second Butler could no longer stand to watch. Was this woman truly naïve or just playing dumb? He didnât believe she actually considered Cherish a friend. Couldnât she see that something was off between Cherish and Daniel Peacock?
Who was she trying to fool?
At that moment, a tall and straight figure suddenly appeared at the mall elevator. Stepping out of the elevator, he walked step by step towards Cherish Turner!
For a minute, the entire scene seemed to be shrouded in brilliance as if a dazzling god had descended, making it hard for everyone to look away!
As William walked step by step towards Cherish, everything around them seemed to lose color, with only each other remaining in their eyes.
