Chapter 101 It’s My Duty

He looked coldly at the people before him. “I didn’t make you return from Europe to be incompetent.”

He threw a proposal on the table. “Take a look. If there aren’t any problems, implement it

soon.”

Outside the Shaw Group building.

Cherise, who was in a white T-shirt and jeans, went to a few cafés but couldn’t replace hand- ground

coffee.

Cherise had previously noticed that Mr. Hampson specially instructed people to hand grind and roast

the coffee that Damien drank at home.

Therefore, he would dislike brewed coffee.

She went along the road but couldn’t replace a café that had hand-ground coffee, so she wanted to cross

the road and go to the other side to look for it.

But Cherise never imagined that someone wanted to kill her in broad daylight.

She was crossing the road as the car drove toward her.

The red light was still lit. However, the car didn’t brake. Instead, it stepped on the drove straight toward

Cherise.

Cherise was late to catch on and only realized when the passersby around her cried out in surprise.

But it was too late!

A hand quickly pulled her to the side of the road at that critical moment.

But even when the person had moved quickly, the vehicle’s scorching exhaust pipe grazed Cherise’s

leg.

“Thank you.”

Cherise had yet to recover from her shock. She panted roughly as she thanked the who had pulled her

away.

“No problem.”

A young, clear voice answered her.

She looked up subconsciously.

It was Blake.

Cherise was slightly surprised.

She never had a good impression of Blake. After all, he had almost killed Nick the first day. they had

met.

Therefore, she always felt the young teen was brutal and vicious.

But she never thought that the young teen, whom she didn’t have a favorable opinion, would bravely

step forward and save her at such a crucial juncture.

“Thank you, Blake.”

After Cherise calmed herself, she thanked him sincerely again.

“No problem, Cherry!”

A shy smile was revealed on the inarticulate young teen’s face. “It’s my duty!”

The car had long driven away.

Blake helped Cherise back to the Shaw Group building to sit on a couch on the first floor.

Cherise was still concerned about Damien’s coffee, so she called Lucy to come over and buy him a

cup.

In the meeting room upstairs.

Mr. Hampson saw the news of Cherise getting injured on his cell phone. He looked up at Damien,

whom everyone was listening to.

At that moment, the man was sitting in the meeting room’s seat of honor coldly and running the

meeting in a commanding manner.

Mr. Hampson furrowed his brows. He turned and left the room before calling Jacob.

“I understand!”

Jacob, who was lying on his bed, rolled his eyes. He looked up at lan, who was still cleaning. the clinic

earnestly. “A patient was scalded on the Shaw Group building’s first floor. Go and deal with it.”

On the phone, Mr. Hampson said Cherise was injured and wanted Jacob to go personally.

Jacob flattened his lips. Does he think I’ll believe it?

With how Damien indulged the girl, his first reaction would have been to immediately send a car to pick

Jacob up if she was injured!

But now, Damien had only asked Mr. Hampson to pass the message for Jacob to deal with.

Jacob had reason to believe that the person injured was only Mr. Hampson or someone

close to him.

Since it was only Mr. Hampson or his friend, Jacob naturally had no reason to personally make the trip.

It was most fitting to send lan over.

Jacob’s clinic wasn’t far from the Shaw Group building where Cherise was at.

Cherise had waited less than ten minutes when lan rushed into the first-floor lounge with a first-aid kit.
