Chapter 2758

Tia sat there in a daze as Cherry left the room.

‘This is a dream, isn’t it? Everything just came rushing out all of a sudden. I can’t believe he doesn’t have a crush or a girlfriend all these whiles. But what did she mean when she said Stanley thinks that I have feelings for someone else? Who else does he think I like?1 Tia pondered.

Tia felt lightheaded as she dragged her feet back to her room. ‘I think I need some time to process all of this information. I can’t think properly anymore.

Seems to me that a lot of things have happened under my nose…’ Meanwhile, Cherry had just made her way to the living room.

And when Stanley saw her coming in, he quickly stood up,” I’ll send you home.”

“Sure!” Cherry chirped and followed him out.

“Stanley, the only person Tia has feelings for is you. You better go ahead and win her heart,” Cherry teased and smiled.

Stanley could not believe what he had just heard, so he gave her a blank stare.

In turn, she simply looked at him and shrugged, “Hey, you should just man up and win her heart!”

Stanley maintained his silence as he got into the car. Cherry went on to ride shotgun and turned to look at him “Hey, come to think of it. I’m actually curious about how you came up with this idea that Tia likes someone else. Like, what is it that made you think of it that way?”

‘This dude has the wealth, the looks, and the brains, but it’s a wonder that even though he’s got everything covered, he’s still so self-conscious,’ she observed.

Meanwhile, Stanley, whose mind was racing, maintained his silence. ‘How could Tia not have someone in her heart? I thought she liked Martin…but how is it possible that she does not have the hots for him?’

Noticing that Stanley was being way too silent, she understood that he was most probably a little too shocked to say anything at this point.

“I’ve done all that I could. We’re even now. I won’t be back for a while, and quite frankly, I feel kind of reluctant leaving you all behind.” She sighed.

Cherry really enjoyed being around the Riddles, and she cherished them deeply.

Eventually, Stanley broke his silence. “You’ll come back eventually.”

“Treat me to a meal before I leave as a parting gift,” she joked.

Stanley nodded seriously. “Sure, no problem. Consider it done!”

“I hope there will be progress between you and Tia the next time I come back,”

Cherry smirked and joked to lighten up the mood.

Stanley nodded faintly, hoping that it would come true. He then ignited the car engine and drove them away from the Riddle residence.

Meanwhile, Nicole had just returned to her room after tucking the twins into bed.

When she heard the engine revving at the garage, she immediately knew that Stanley was sending Cherry home.

“I really did not expect that Stanley would make a deal with Cherry to do something like this,” she muttered as she shook her head.

‘I wonder how Mom and Dad will react when they discover the truth about Stanley and Cherry,’ she thought.
