Chapter 772 I’m Insignificant

Have they never seen someone blush before?

Cherise had just enjoyed a particularly delightful and satisfying meal,

After dinner, she and Damien returned to their hotel when her phone rang. It was Lyra calling.

“Cherise, what should I do?” Lyra’s voice was tearful on the other end of the line. “Zachary’s sister, Kareen, won’t

let me stay by his side to take care of him.”

“She called me clingy and told me to go away. She even said I’m not good enough for her brother…” Lyra was on

the verge of tears. “I’ve been the one taking care of Zachary since he got injured. It’s been over an hour since I last

saw him, and I feel so lost…”

“I’m worried that the caregiver his sister hired won’t take proper care of him… Cherise, what should I do…”

“Lyra, take a deep breath,” Cherise responded calmly. “First, tell me, what is your exact relationship with Zachary?”

There was a pause on the other end of the line. “What… what do you mean?”

“Are you two really engaged?” Cherise voiced the doubt she had been having for a while.

Lyra constantly claimed to be engaged to Zachary, and Zachary himself had said that he was bringing his fiancée to

Adania. However, Lyra wasn’t acting like his fiancée.

For example, she didn’t defend herself when Kareen made derogatory remarks about her at the airport. And now,

she had been dismissed by Kareen.

“I…” Lyra’s voice was faint. “Of course we are…”

“Lyra, I can only help you if you’re honest with me.” Cherise spoke softly, “If I replace out that you’re lying to me, I

won’t be able to help you properly.”

There was a long silence on the other end of the line. After a while, Lyra finally sighed. “Cherise, where are you? I’ll

come to you.”

In a coffee shop on the ground floor of the hotel, Lyra sat across from Cherise. “Cherise, I didn’t lie to you. We’re

really engaged…” Her body was tense, and she nervously held onto her coffee cup. “But…”

“But there’s no love between us.” The young girl looked down, slightly distressed. “No, that’s not right. He doesn’t

have any feelings for me.”

“I was the only one who truly cared for him from the beginning.” The girl looked up at Cherise with her bright eyes.

“Cherise, do you know what it feels like to love someone who doesn’t love you back?”
