Chapter 61

Calm and composed, Phoebe sipped her coffee. Then, picking up on Melissa's discomfort, she said, "Cherise, you're twenty-six this year, aren't you?"

Melissa aflirmed with a nod. "Yeah, two years younger than Morris, she replied to the point.

Right after, Phoebe, with a serious expression, advised, "Your parents should be scouting out a good match for you."

"We don't rush into marriage in our business, and as everyone knows, I'm interested in Morris. My parents actually want me to ask for your blessing first," Melissa said, her cheeks flushing as he lowered her head. Phoebe sighed and said, "You know, Morris has always been one to make his own decisions, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. I'd hate for him to resent me."

"But in our circles, there's no such thing as marriage freedom. Its all about what the parents say and the matchmakers' words. Besides, Morris respects you. Can't you have a say?" Melissa said, a soft laugh escaping her lips. Phoebe set down her coffee cup, a faint smile playing on her lips "We're in the 21st century. The old ways should be left behind.

After Phoebe retired to her room, Enya had the supplements Melissa brought returned to her car, untouched.

Melissa politely bid Enya farewell, and once inside her car, she sped off from the Chivers residence.

Melissa drove straight to the Horipines River bridge at the foot of Azure Peak, slammed on the brakes, and turned off the engine. Then her previously warm demeanor changed drastically. Melissa got out of the car, stood on the Horipines River bridge, and looked at the turbulent river below, her
