Chapter 487 - 488: I Refuse
When Cherish Turner arrived at the Cherry Blossom Garden, her father, Sam Turner, and her mother were seated in a side hall of the villa.
Seldom returning home, Cherish’s younger brother, Sam, had many things to do at school. Nevertheless, he was puzzled by his sister’s recent ordeal. Had she left William Griffith only to fall into the arms of Daniel Peacock? He stared at her unblinkingly, eyes searching as if she were a monster, which made Cherish feel a wave of unease.
"Cherish, sit down," her mother beckoned, and Cherish obediently sat down beside her.
Father Turner remained silent while sitting on the leather couch. Instead, Sam across the room glared coldly, questioning Cherish, "What’s going on with you?"
Sam’s frustration led him to directly call out his sister’s name.
"What?" Cherish asked in surprise, feeling completely bewildered by the situation.
Sam couldn’t take it any longer, shouting, "Don’t you know? Look for yourself!"
He immediately grabbed the remote control, turned on the television, and images flashed on the screen.
On the news, the handsome, medieval-looking nobleman, Daniel Peacock, was being interviewed by countless journalists, while the host explained, "Half an hour ago, Mr. Daniel Peacock, president of the Peacock Clan Corporation, publicly announced his upcoming engagement to a Miss Turner. Who could be the lucky Miss Turner who will soon be Mr. Smith’s fiancée? The media will continue to follow the story!"
On the television screen, Daniel faced the eager journalists without responding, maintaining his enigmatic smile.
