The soup cleared up Dora’s foggy mind considerably. On the real, Dora tried her best to turn and look out the window, afraid she might accidentally meet Liam’s gaze. 

Liam, holding the steering wheel, glanced at Dora now and the feeling guilty 

So, they traveled in silence, each lost in their own thoughts, Before long, the white Range Rover pulled up steadily in front of Dora’s apartment building. 

Liam spoke up, “Dora, let me take you upstairs. I can’t feel at ease seeing you like this” 

Dora immediately stopped him. “No need, I’m clear–headed now Thank you for bringing me back.” 

Liam wanted to say more, but Dora quickly unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the door, and walked straight to the apartment lobby. 

Watching Dora’s retreating figure, Liam hit the steering wheel in frustration, cursing himself internally. 

Once Dora arrived home, she removed her dirty clothes and stood under the shower, letting the water wash over her. 

The sound of water droplets echoed as they hit the bathroom’s smooth marble floor and walls, creating a rhythmic patter loud enough to drown out the muffled sobs of the figure beneath the shower. 

To outsiders, she appeared as an unstoppable businesswoman, seemingly invincible. But in truth, she was strong on the outside and soft within, and she also longed for love and care. 

At Betrico University, Cherise and Morris drove over for class after having breakfast together. 

Just as the car stopped in the parking lot, someone knocked on the window. Looking over, she saw Shirley, with Jeffrey standing behind her. 

Cherise sneered from inside the car, then pushed the door open and slowly stepped out 

Jeffrey instinctively took a few steps back when he saw Cherise get out of the car. 

Shirley didn’t notice Jeffrey’s reaction behind her and greeted Cherise with a flattering smile. “Cherise, you’re finally here. Jeffrey and I have been waiting for you for so long.” 

As she spoke, Shirley took an invitation from her bag and handed it to Cherise. “Although I gave you one last time, I’m afraid you might have forgotten. So, here’s a reminder. 

“Cherise, it’s this Saturday night at the Chambers International Hotel. You have to come. I really want you to bless me and Jeffrey 

Cherise stood in front of Shirley, still wearing that mocking smile, and took the invitation from her hand. She responded coolly, “You really want me there, huh?” She raised an eyebrow at Shirley. 

Shirley was caught off guard by Cherise’s words and expression She stammered, “Of course, we’re both part of the Leach family, and you’re my sister. I really want you to be there.” 

Hearing this, Cherise waved the invitation in front of Shirley. “Well then, I’ll graciously accept. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely be there. After all, you two are such a match. It’d be inappropriate for me not to come and give my blessings.
