Chapter 869 Unwarranted Accusations: The Kindergarten Incident

“The original intention of performing surgery on Aunt Charisa was also to hope that she

could get better, right?”

“You’re not wrong. Those who think you’re wrong are the ones who don’t understand the

situation at all. You don’t need to pay attention to them.”

Cherise pursed her lips. In fact, she comprehended the rationale behind Lucy’s words.

Damien had reiterated it to her numerous times before.

She had used these words over the past five years to admonish herself.

Yet, the prospect of unveiling her scars before a multitude filled her with dread.

Words wield immense power.

She dreaded being pointed at and whispered about wherever she went, and she recoiled

at the thought of enduring the gossip that would follow every job change.

Nevertheless, it seemed there was no alternative but to confront it.

“Alright, where there’s a will, there’s a way.”

Lucy, seated beside Cherise, added, “Besides, you still have Damien by your side!”

Cherise remained silent, her lips tightly pressed together.

Initially, Cherise believed that by staying home, she could shield herself from the

repercussions echoing outside.

Yet, on the second day of the ordeal, she received an alarming call from her son’s

kindergarten teacher at noon.“Mrs. Lenoir, you may need to come to the kindergarten.”

“Your son, Soren, hit two children today, and now the parents are demanding

compensation…”

At that moment, Cherise was at home meticulously organizing the evidence to refute the

plagiarism accusations. When the phone call shattered the silence of her concentration,

she leaped from her chair in a sudden jolt of panic. “How could this happen!?”

Soren, typically known for his prudence and thoughtfulness, did not resort to physical

confrontation.

How could he possibly have struck another child?

“Teacher, is there a misunderstanding? How could Soren hit someone?”

“I assure you, there’s no mistake. Soren indeed struck the child.”

The teacher’s tone grew impatient. “Mrs. Lenoir, don’t presume others lack professional

integrity as you do.”

“If you can plagiarize papers, who’s to say your son’s moral fiber isn’t tainted?”

Before Cherise could respond, the teacher abruptly ended the call.

Cherise was trembling with the phone in her hand.

Raising her gaze, she found herself momentarily blinded by the brilliance of the midday

sun, its radiance too intense for her eyes to bear.

After steadying her breath deeply, she regained her composure, swiftly changed her attire,

and stepped out of the house.

As Cherise made her way from the hospital entrance to Soren’s location, she wore a hat

and mask to conceal her identity. Despite her disguise, she couldn’t escape the whispers

of passersby along the corridors.

“Hey, I used to admire her, but I didn’t expect her to be a thief!”

“Well, you

have no taste. I knew from when she openly admitted that she had no medical ethics over

a month ago that this woman could do anything without moral boundaries!”

“What a shame… I used to envy the president of Lenoir Group for replaceing such a good

woman as his wife. But now it seems…”

“Hahaha, do you think Damien intended to divorce her after this scandal broke out?”

Cherise maintained her silence.

As she overheard the cruel remarks echoing around her, each comment felt like a blade

piercing Cherise’s heart.

She clenched her fists as she hastened toward the designated floor.

“Why isn’t she here yet!?”

Upon reaching the floor, Cherise overheard a woman scolding her son. “You brat, is your

mom too scared to come?”

Defiantly, Soren retorted, “My mom will definitely come if she says so!”
