Translator: 549690339
A hint of bitterness flashed through Cherysh Jordan’s eyes as she stared at the delicate and beautiful face in the mirror. Involuntarily, images of her and Enna Clark inseparable during their school days surfaced in her mind. At that time, they were both naive, and since they both needed to work, they got along well and shared everything with each other. But now… Cherysh’s lips tasted bitter, and she was well aware that Enna had been understanding enough with her. If she herself had been betrayed and drugged by a good friend, she might have directly confronted them and fought.
But Enna didn’t. She had just treated her like a stranger.
Although the outcome was much better than she had imagined, Cherysh couldn’t figure out the indescribable taste in her heart.
Cherysh turned on the faucet and splashed some water on her neck.
As her skin came in contact with the cold water, her goosebumps surfaced, and she quickly pulled back from her memories. She took some foundation from her bag, applied it using the mirror, and made her complexion look lively before she stepped out, swaying in her 10-inch high heels…
From afar, she saw a slender young girl, innocent like a daisy, obediently sitting in the seat she had reserved. The girl’s clear, bright eyes were full of curiosity. She looked left and right.
Cherysh’s heart suddenly warmed up. She pursed her red lips, lifted the corners of her mouth into a charming smile, and headed towards the table as soon as she confirmed that her smile was beautiful and charming.
“Rebecca. ”
“Sister.” Rebecca Jordan looked at her happily, chirping like a bird let out of its cage, her cheeks flushed with excitement. “Sister, this place is so beautiful! I’ve never eaten in such a gorgeous place before. Did you see? There’s even someone playing the violin over there.”
After speaking, she hesitated and asked cautiously, “Sister, is this place very expensive?”
Cherysh knew what she was thinking, and gently patted her head to reassure her, “Don’t worry, the company has given us vouchers for this place. When the server comes, order whatever you want to eat.”
“Okay!” Rebecca nodded vigorously and glanced at the couples around her with her beautiful eyes. She suddenly asked, “Sister, when will you find me a brother-in-law?”
Brother-in-law…
Cherysh’s heart ached as if it was pricked, and she almost failed to maintain her smile. Fortunately, she had seen her fair share of ups and downs in her life and managed to keep calm. With a teasing smile, she replied, “A brother-in-law? I think you’re looking for a sister-in-law for me instead.”
“Sister-” Rebecca’s face turned beet red with shyness, followed by a dimming of her eyes. She lowered her head and said, “I know my body well, and the doctor also said that I may be like this for the rest of my life. I don’t want to drag others down with me…”
She lifted her head again, appearing like the shy girl she was, “So, sister, please find me a brother-in-law quickly. Dad was still talking about it when he passed away, asking when you would bring home a brother-in-law to fulfill his dream.”
“You cheeky girl, you’re quite the smooth talker.”
Cherysh snapped her fingers, and the waiter came over.
“Hello, would you like to place an order?”
“Please give us a menu, thank you.”
“Of course.”
The waiter handed over a gilded menu, and Cherysh passed it to Rebecca, “Take your time, don’t be thrifty, choose what you like to eat.”
“Alright.” Rebecca opened the menu and began reading it slowly, planning to choose something affordable.
Everything was going well.
Who could have expected that at this moment, a discordant voice would suddenly interfere, “Cherysh Jordan, I knew you’d be here!”
