Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175 

Cherise wasn’t one to be pretentions. She picked up a document abeled Mondial Regalia and signed her name with a flourish. 

She thought, ‘Since it’s a gift froin my boyfriend, it’s only natural to accept it 

Seeing Cherise accept his apology brought a genuine smile to Morris’s previously tense face. 

After signing, Cherise put away the Mondial Regalia document and handed the remaining ones back to Morris. I’ll just take this one: I don’t need the others.” 

Before Morris could say anything, she quickly said, “I’m hungry 

Their eyes met, and after a few seconds, they both chuckled solily. 

Morris gently took Cherise’s hand and said, “Alright, let’s go, I’ll take you to Marie’s for some beef stew.” 

Cherise nodded, and as they went downstairs, they happened to run into Truman and Xenia coming in. 

As soon as Xenia saw Cherise, she got so excited that she wanted to rush over and hug her, but Truman quickly held her back firmly. 

“Hey! Truman, I haven’t seen Cherise in ages, and I’ve missed her so much. Just let me go hug her!” Xenia protested 

Truman stood in front of her, blinking and muttering quietly, “Didn’t you see who’s standing next to her? That man will get jealous in no time, and it’s me who’ll end up paying for it!” 

Only now did Xenia notice Morris at Cherise’s side. She retreated a couple of steps and muttered to Truman, “Understood, Truman. 

When Cherise saw Xenia, she let go of Morris’s hand and walked over to her, warmly calling out, “Xenia.” 

The sudden release of her hand made Morris’s expression darken. 

He thought, Truman is showing up at the worst possible time just when my girlfriend finally forgives me and is about to have a meal with me.” 

Seeing Cherise walking toward her alone, Xenia happily spread her arms wide and hugged Cherise. “Long time no see, Cherise! I’ve missed you so much. You’ve lost weight.” 

Cherise was always happy to see Xenia, so she responded, “Since you’re both here, why don’t you join us for some beef stew? Morris knows a place with amazing food. Bring your uncle along too.” 

She glanced at Morris after speaking. He seemed nonchalant and said, “Sure, let’s all go!” 

“Really? Awesome! Dieting can wait till after this meal–let’s go! Xenia exclaimed. 

Truman was also happy; it was rare for Morris to be so approachable, “Okay, let’s get going then!” 

And so, what was originally supposed to be a cozy dinner for two became a gathering with a party of eight. 

Meanwhile, news of Shirley winning first place in the piano competition hosted by the Clusia Pianists‘ Association was spreading online like wildfire. 

[Shirley truly deserves to be called a goddess; she’s the pride of the Arts Department at Betrico University.]

Chapter 125 

I wasn’t there, but just by watching the videos online, I can tell hirley’s performance of The Laurel was easily the best of the night). 

(Madeline and Miles were good too, but Shirley was unbeatable 

I’m a fan of Madeline too, but Shirley is just too impressive. I heard she’s getting engaged tomorrow to Jeffrey, the heir of the Chambers family. Wishing her happiness in advance! 

[Yep, it’s tomorrow! Although the Leach family isn’t as powerfuls it used to be, and Shirley is only an adopted daughter, her winning today and her selection as Liam’s student give her lid footing in the Chambers family.] 

[I heard a judge pointed out a mistake in Shirley’s performance
