Chapter 379 A Stingy Man
Damien drove the car to pick up Cherise from Adania’s airport and take her to Mandy’s village.
Cherise sat in the backseat, watching the scenery pass by the window as the car sped along. She was filled with excitement, imagining how happy her aunt and uncle would be when. they saw the gifts she had bought.
This thought only added to her excitement, and she couldn’t help but chuckle to herself.
Damien glanced at Cherise through the rearview mirror, seeing her silly smile, and shook his head helplessly.
Cherise had a way of melting his heart with her adorableness when he least expected it. Int that moment, he felt an overwhelming urge to embrace and kiss her.
Damien followed the address Lennon had given him, and after about two hours, they arrived at Mandy’s secluded village.
Jacob had chosen this place carefully to ensure the safety of his patient.
The car bumped along a road filled with potholes and finally stopped in front of a house at the end of the village.
“Sis, Damie, you’re back!”
Mandy rushed out of the house upon hearing the sound of a vehicle outside.
She still had someone else’s face, but now it was adorned with a genuine smile that had never been seen before.
As soon as Cherise stepped out of the car, Mandy threw herself into her embrace. “I missed you!”
Mandy had shed her identity as the eldest daughter of the Wool family, along with all the disguises she had to wear for years. She no longer had to dress in clothes that made her look older than her age.
Cherise was amazed to see Mandy in a frilly Lolita-style dress. “Do you always dress like this here?”
Lolita-style dresses were not suitable for everyday wear, and Mandy had never dressed like this before. According to Lucy, Mandy worked in the kitchen every day. So Cherise. was surprised to see her in Lolita style.
“I’m only dressed like this today.”
Mandy let go of Cherise and smiled sheepishly
“She set herself free after you left.”
Jacob stepped out of the yard and leaned against the large steel gate, looking at Mandy with resignation. “A few days ago, she was wearing a men’s suit. Lately, she’s fallen in love. with the Lolita style.”
“She says she finally feels free after being trapped for nineteen years. She wants to transform herself into Miraculous Mandie.”
He shook his head helplessly. “Who is Miraculous Mandie?”
Cherise didn’t know what to say.
“Well, um, it’s…”
“The important thing is…”
Jacob took a deep breath and approached Cherise. He pulled out a two-meter-long bill from his shirt pocket. “She spent this much of my money.”
“I’ve kept a record of everything she bought.”
“She says you, her sister, will pay off her debt.”
Cherise looked at the incredibly long bill in shock. “I…”
“I’ll pay for them.”
Damien took out a card from his pocket. “You’re so stingy.”
“I agree!”
Mandy pursed her lips and stuck her tongue out at Jacob. “You’ll never find a wife if you’re so petty and stingy!”
Jacob glared at her and took the card from Damien, putting it away carefully. “With you. spending all my money, it’s no wonder I can’t find a wife.”
Mandy turned around and pulled Cherise into the house, rolling her eyes at him. “As if I’m the reason you can’t get married!”
Cherise looked at Mandy helplessly.
When she first met Mandy, she felt inferior in every way compared to her.
After all, even though they were the same age, Mandy seemed much more mature and intelligent.
