At the Chivers Residence, It was still daylight, and Morris had come home from work yet.

When Cherise returned, she was still in the car when she spotted Yulia waiting by the gate. Hugh noticed her too and said, "Mrs. Chivers, the young lady outside is from the Muller family.

"She's been watching our car. Looks like she's here for you.

"If you don't want to see her, you can stay in the car, and I'll send her away."

Cherise glanced out the window, her expression calm. "No need if she's here for me, I'll get out and see what she wants," she replied.

At the gate, Yulia watched as Cherise's car stopped smoothly, and when Cherise stepped out, Yulia walked forward a couple of steps to meet her.

Standing face-to-face, Yulia looked at Cherise with a mix of anger and grievance.

Cherise's lips curled into a faint smile. "You're here to talk to me about something?" she asked.

Yulia stared at her and suddenly blurted out, "Are you satisfied now?

"Did you get what you wanted?

"My grandfather and grandmother divorced because of you-does that make you happy?"

After listening to Yulia, Cherise raised an eyebrow slightly. She didn't know about their divorce, but it didn't exactly surprise her.

With a cold and detached tone, she said, "Oh, so you're here to blame me? Hmm?"

Her gaze turned icy as she finished.

Yulia looked into her frosty stare and hesitated, visibly pulling back a little.

After a pause, she summoned her courage and said, "That's right. I am blaming you.

"If you hadn't refused to acknowledge my grandfather, none of this would've happened.

"Now they're divorced, and my grandmother's moved back to the Hawkins family. Isn't this exactly what you wanted?

"They're so old-why did you have to create this mess and make my grandmother suffer?

"She's already had enough unfairness in her life."

Cherise's expression hardened even more as she locked eyes with Yulia.

She said, "Hum! Do you need to get checked out? Maybe you've been cursed or taken some kind of drug that's messing with your mind? "You're here fighting for your grandmother, but who fought for mine?

Atthe banquet, you saw my master, didn't you?

"Do you know why he's in a wheelchair? Because he absorbed the cursed worm from my grandmother's body, which cost him his leg.

"And that's not even the full extent of it.

"Without him, my grandmother would've been disfigured-or worse, dead.

"Everything, all of it, was caused by one person, and I think you know exactly who..

"Just for her so-called marriage, she poisoned a pregnant woman and a mother with a toddler learning to walk-trying to kill her.

"Compared to that, whatever your grandmother endured is nothing

"And let's not forget, everything she suffered was because of her own choices."

Yulia stood there frozen, unable to respond.

She knew everything Cherise said was true. She wanted to argue, but no words came to her.

Cherise looked at her, standing there blankly, then turned and walked into the Chivers Residence without another word. Hugh, waiting nearby, quickly shut the iron gate behind her, almost as if warding off a swarm of wild beasts.

Yulia remained outside, still rooted to the spot. When Morris's car arrived, she still hadn't left.

"Mr. Chivers, there's someone outside, Leo commented.

Morris glanced out the window briefly, frowned, and said. "Ignore her. Let's go home."

He walked over and gently asked. "What are you working on? Can I take a look?"

Cherise looked up at him, giving him a sweet smile. "Sit on the sofa and give me five minutes," she said. Morris nodded and sat on the sofa, watching her quietly.

Five minutes later, Cherise set down her brush, waved him over, and said, "Alright, come here and see!" She smiled warmly at him.

Morris stood up, walked over, crouched beside her, and looked at the painting. He laughed softly. Then he said. "So you were painting me? Ha, I thought.. it's amazing-just as handsome as I am. I'm really pleased with the painting by Master Cherise."

Then, he leaned in and kissed her gently.

"What did you think I was painting?" Cherise asked.

Morris chuckled and looked at her. "I thought it might've been your grandmother. I didn't realize I was this important to

As she said this, she pointed to her heart.

Hearing her heartfelt confession, which was rare, Morris scooped her up in his arms. "Cherise, thank you for loving me. I love you so much too!" he said.

A little later. Cherise's silhouette could be faintly seen in the room as Morris pulled the curtains shut.
