Chapter 555 - 554: Spilt Water Can’t Be Recovered
"Let me drive you." Daniel Peacock spoke after a long pause, pulling her to the car parked behind him.
The car sped past the hotel, but another figure rushed out after them.
Yannis Griffith anxiously looked around, holding his phone and trying to make calls, but none of them connected.
The car stopped in front of Spring Garden, and Cherish Turner took off her suit jacket and thanked Daniel before getting out of the car. Daniel also got out, grabbing his coat as he did. He blocked her, putting the suit jacket back on her, and tersely said, "You don’t have to return it to me! Do whatever you want with it!"
"That’s not what I meant." Cherish said softly.
Daniel suppressed his anger and spoke solemnly. "Knowing that you are bound to lose, why are you still so obsessed? He’s already announced his engagement, and you still stay by his side. What is that all about? You know the Griffith Family’s background; do you want to be looked down on every day? He should have known about the engagement beforehand. Don’t be such a fool! Maybe he’s just playing with you!"
As his thoughts became chaotic and his words didn’t match his heart, Daniel suddenly regretted what he had said, but it was too late to take it back.
Cherish was quiet for a moment, her voice soft yet firm. "He’s not that kind of person."
Daniel felt disheartened, an indescribable taste in his mouth. Clenching his fist lightly, he said, "Suit yourself."
When she returned to the apartment, Cherish immediately received a phone call. She thought it would be William Griffith, but it was Yannis Griffith instead. He repeatedly asked if she was alright and where she was. She told him that she was home and fine. Yannis reminded her a few more times before hanging up the phone.
Cherish sat in the living room, waiting until the early morning, but she never got a call from William.
