Chapter 619 Cherise’s Unexpected Generosity
Cherise furrowed her brow as she opened the tester and asked, “Ms. Miles?”
Ms. Miles was known for her extravagant lifestyle.
“Ah, isn’t this my dear little sister, Cherry?”
Before she could turn around, the woman behind her had already recognized Cherise.
Cherise smirked, and it was indeed her.
She took a deep breath, closed the trial pack, turned around, and glanced at the woman. standing at the door.
At that moment, Kareen leaned against the beauty shop door, arms crossed. Her deep brown eyes were coldly fixed on Cherise, and she quipped, “Dame mentioned that you, Cherry, were a serious and responsible doctor with no interest in makeup.”
“Why are you here buying lipstick?”
“Cherise, did you suddenly notice that her face had aged after having a child and was trying to fix it?”
Accustomed to Kareen’s sharp tongue and irrational behavior, Cherise had no intention of arguing with her. “I was just buying lipstick, Ms. Miles; you’re overthinking,” she asserted.
“Indeed, I rarely wear makeup. I looked better than Ms. Miles even without it.”
Kareen’s eyes blazed, and anger heated her blood.
“What are you implying, Cherise?”
She glared at Cherise; she was about to explode with rage and seethed, “Are you insinuating that I’m ugly?”
“Not at all.”
Cherise responded with a reticent smile, raised her hand, and handed the lipstick she had just tried to the receptionist, “I’ll take one in this color.”
The receptionist took it and quickly walked away.
Only then did Cherise glance at Kareen standing at the door. “I was merely stating the truth,” Cherise said brazenly.
“I’m not wearing any makeup at the moment, Ms. Miles. You can tell the difference between you with makeup and me without it.”
“Also, don’t put words in my mouth. I never said you look ugly… that’s your assumption.”
With that, the woman stifled a yawn, directed a casual gaze at Kareen, and chided, “Usually, Ms. Miles would dramatically exit at this point.”
“She avoids stooping to my level but lacks a convincing argument.”
“But now Ms. Miles is still here… do you want me to buy you lipstick?”
After saying that, she turned to the receptionist who was fetching her lipstick and said, “Get me another one in that color; wrap it up for this lady.”
Kareen was red with rage, standing at the door as her hands clenched tightly.
Cherise didn’t know what was good for her!
If it weren’t for the fact that she was Rebecca’s biological daughter, she would have torn her apart today.
“Ms. Miles.”
A clerk who knew Kareen well approached her slowly and whispered, “Don’t let her get under your skin…”
“I can assure you, the lipstick she was eyeing is our latest addition, and as for the price…”
She appraised Cherise’s appearance, noting her modest and slightly worn attire, “In any case, it’s definitely beyond the means of someone with her income.”
“Let alone two; one could already bankrupt her!”
Kareen’s eyes flashed.
She knew that although Cherise was the daughter of Charisa and Beckham and came from a distinguished background, she was not one to rely on her family’s wealth.
In Lermille, nobody knew her true identity; they only saw her as a humble and ordinary doctor.
Cherise never used the money from Miles’s family and the Tanner family…
Someone like Cherise wouldn’t have enough money to buy these expensive luxuries.
She had set herself up for embarrassment
by coming to this place to shop.
As Kareen lazily stretched, she sneered and said sarcastically, “If Ms. Shaw is enough to buy me lipstick, I’ll graciously accept.”
