Chapter 34 Mr Lenoir Is Angry
The whispers around them grew louder. Cressa’s face paled before it turned red.
After a long time, she ran to stop Randall. “Dad, is this a joke? Why are you acting like a servant and picking Cherise home with your status?”
“What kind of connections does the man providing for her have?”
“Dad, you…”
‘Smack!‘
Before Cressa could finish speaking, Randall slapped her. “Do you think you can talk about someone like Mrs. Lenoir as you wish?”
Cressa was utterly dazed by her dad’s slap.
The students around them were also taken aback.
Cherise put on a bold face and coughed lightly. “Um, I can go back myself.”
After that, she turned and wanted to go to the bus stop, but Randall and his subordinates stopped
her.
“Mrs. Lenoir, please let me send you home.”
The man in his fifties had a pleading expression. “My daughter is ignorant. You don’t have to stoop to her level.”
Cherise pursed her lips. “I’m not angry.”
“But Mr. Lenoir is angry.”
Randall had an awful expression. “Mr. Lenoir gave me a chance to turn over a new leaf by sending you home. If you turn me down…”
The middle–aged man almost had a tearful expression. “If you don’t do this, I’m afraid I’ll go bankrupt tonight…“.
Cherise answered, “You’re… kidding, right?”
Although the Lenoir family had great power and influence in Adania, Damien was basically abandoned by the Lenoir family. How did he have such a significant influence?
Randall seemed to see the confusion in Cherise’s eyes. He sighed. “Mrs. Lenoir, it seems you don’t understand Mr. Lenoir well enough.”
Under Randall’s coaxing, Cherise ultimately got into the flashy Lincoln obediently.
After she got into the car, she clearly heard Cressa and Randall arguing outside.
Cressa seemed to be crying, and Randall’s voice was harsh.
After a long time, Randall got into the car after fiercely reprimanding Cressa.
Shortly after the car drove away, Cherise received a message from Cressa. “You just wait and see!”
Cherise didn’t say anything and silently deleted the message.
The car quickly stopped at the entrance of Lenoir Manor.
Randall respectfully opened the car door and gestured politely for Cherise to exit.
The villa’s butler was at the door. Upon seeing Cherise exit the car, he coldly instructed Randall to leave before leading Cherise into the villa.
In the living room, the man in the wheelchair, whose eyes were covered with black silk, was having tea.
Upon hearing her enter, the man said indifferently, “Come and try it out. It’s the latest tea.”
Cherise pursed her lips and walked over cautiously. She took a teacup from him and sipped it gently.
“How is it?” The man’s deep voice rang.
Cherise took another sip. “I don’t know.”
“I don’t know much about tea… I don’t think it’s any different from water.”
The man smiled and took the teacup from her before pouring another cup. He drank it carelessly. “Do you have anything to say to me?”
Cherise furrowed her brows. “You don’t have to send anyone to pick me up in the future/
“I’ve looked at the bus routes. I only need to take two buses from school to come home. It’s very convenient.”
Damien picked at his lips indifferently. “Do you think your classmates will stop gossiping about you if you take the bus home?”
Cherise was greatly startled. “You… you know about it?”
