Chapter 796 I’m Your Boss Now
The man was a strategic mastermind and could hold a grudge for a long time!
With no better option, Gwenn prepared herself and took a deep breath. “I apologize, Cherry.” She forced a smile at Cherise. “I was wrong in the past. I shouldn’t have been misled without evidence and written an unfounded article to attack you.”
“If I have caused you harm, it is entirely my fault. I hope you won’t hold it against me. Please forgive me…”
“Gwenn, I accept your apology. But as for forgiveness… Forget it.” Cherise simply smiled lightly in response to Gwenn’s unconvincing apology. “I can’t forgive someone who is constantly scheming against me. Besides, you don’t seem genuinely remorseful.”
Gwenn frowned deeply. “So, Cherry, what do I need to do to keep my job?” She didn’t feel apologetic, but she still tried to maintain a smile. “Losing my job and having my professional integrity questioned would cause me significant harm. You should understand since you’ve experienced it. All I want is to keep my job.”
Cherise smiled faintly. Her radiant grin seemed to make her glow under the light. “Don’t worry, Gwenn. I’ll convince Aunt Priscilla to let you stay at the wedding, and I won’t let Damien actually fire you.”
She narrowed her eyes at Gwenn. “After all, I’m your boss now. I should be respected by you.” She smiled at Gwenn. “Gwenn, could you please fetch me a glass of water? That’s not too much to ask, is it?”
Gwenn’s face darkened, but she had no choice. She could only comply. Suppressing her hatred, she filled a glass with water and handed it to Cherise. “Here.”
After drinking the water, Cherise checked the time. There was half an hour left before the wedding, so she didn’t waste any more time. She had Priscilla find a suitable dress for Gwenn to change into, and they all went downstairs.
The venue downstairs was already bustling with people.
With her keen eyes, Cherise noticed Damien’s uncle, Raymond Lenoir, in the corner. He was already seated and conversing with a servant from the Miles family.
She instinctively tugged at Damien’s arm. “I see your Uncle Raymond.”
“Mm.” Damien smiled faintly, leaning close to Cherise’s ear. “I had Syatt arrange a meeting with Patricia in the garden’s gazebo five minutes after the dinner banquet begins.”
“I also arranged for the servant to speak to Raymond. He’s informing Raymond that someone from the Miles family wishes to meet him five minutes after the wedding starts.”
“After they meet, I’ll have Blake keep a watchful eye on them. When the time is right, we’ll all head over.” The man lifted his hand to pinch Cherise’s cheek. “There will be a grand spectacle tonight.”
Cherise nodded. “I hope… everything can be resolved.” I hope Raymond is indeed the culprit from back then.
The wedding ceremony began shortly. As the wedding march played, Kareen entered while pushing an unconscious Zachary in a wheelchair. The venue instantly buzzed with chatter.
Many rumors were circulating in Ziphon. Many had heard that Zachary, the head of the Miles family, was in a coma, but few had seen it firsthand. But now, a comatose Zachary had appeared before them, and the onlookers couldn’t help but gossip
Kareen’s hands began to turn pale as she gripped the wheelchair handles.
