Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Bleeped the Dog Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Bleeped the Dog âDaniel, ever since we saw Miss Turner earlier, youâve been acting weird, and now sheâs gone, but youâre still staring? If you keep it up, Iâll get jealous!â
With that, Daniel Peacock finally took his gaze away and started to comfort his fiancée.
â
Elijah Butler didnât actually take a ride from William Griffith, because she drove there herself and didnât need his help. Besides, the CEO just swooped in and saved their dear Cherish from an awkward situation, so Elijah had a pretty good impression of this man, and naturally wouldnât want to be a third wheel.
âUh hehe, big boss William, just drop me off at the intersection up front, my car is parked there. Thanks!â
âElijah, let him give you a ride!â Cherish Turner hurriedly said, not wanting to be alone with the big boss on the way back.
âWhat a silly idea! Willingly spend some time with your boss during this lovely evening, be smart!â Elijah whispered, then quickly left.
The car continued on, and Cherish realized they werenât heading towards her home, which made her worried: âWilliam Griffith, I want to go home!â
William acted as if he hadnât heard her and didnât even look her in the eye.
Cherish pulled on her seatbelt, cautiously studying Williamâs expression. For a split second, she actually cared about his feelings.
âAre you mad?â
But after asking, she immediately regretted it â what was he mad about?
So, for a moment, there was silence.
Soon, the car stopped at Deep Wave Mansion. As the door opened, little Lewis came out from the inside, along with a housekeeper. Seeing that the man of the house had returned, the housekeeper respectfully took her leave.
âDad, I knew youâd bring Auntie Cherish back!â
The little guy happily ran over and hugged Cherishâs leg.
âAuntie, Daddy says youâll be joining us on our outing, right?â
Oh, so it was for that reason he picked her up and brought her to Deep Wave Mansion.
It was all for his son, Lewis.
âUm⦠Auntie Cherish will do her best, but Iâm kind of busy lately.â
Upon hearing that, Lewis instantly became displeased, his pout so big that he could hang an oil bottle from it!
He then looked at his dad with disappointment!
Soon afterward, the little guy scurried into his room and slammed the door shut with a bang.
âLewis⦠seems upset?â
Cherish pointed, awkwardly looking at William.
He glanced at Cherishâs embarrassed face with a light, indifferent gaze and simply snorted.
For some reason, Cherish felt like she had kicked a dog. Since running into them, her life had become inexplicable daily chaos, and she was the one who felt annoyed!
âThen can you help explain to Lewis that I really need to study for the upcoming comic contest lately? But if I have time on the day of the outing, Iâll definitely accompany him, okay?â
Having said this, Cherish planned to carry her bag and leave with a thick face.
But William stopped her.
âWhat were you doing at the mall?â
ââ¦Buying stuff!â
âWho were you buying it for?â
He clearly saw her going to the menâs section, so she wasnât buying it for herself!
Running into Daniel Peacock by chance? To be honest, at this moment, William felt terrible, really terrible!
âWhy do you care who Iâm buying forâ¦â Cherish grumbled, not able to tell him she was buying it for him, or else he would become too smug.
Also, she hadnât even managed to buy anything, right?
As Cherish kept quiet, William approached her step by step!
