Chapter 213

After finishing the meal and saying goodbye to Rayburn, Cherise got in her car and drove away from Gourmet Bistro.

Rayburn watched as Cherise drove away, letting out a sigh.

A man in a black suit ran out of Gourmet Bistro and greeted, "Mr. Muller."

Rayburn turned his head slightly. "Check the information on Cherise who just left."

"Yes," the man responded quickly and retreated.

Once the man left, Rayburn looked somewhat forlorn. "Megan, could Cherise be related to you? Why is she so similar to you, even down to the little habits while dining?"

Just moments ago, after finishing her meal, Cherise had arranged her plates, fork, spoon, and wet towel exactly as they were before she started eating.

Coincidentally, Rayburn remembered that Megan also had this habit.

On the way back, after Rayburn asked Cherise about her grandmother, even though she acted indifferent, her heart felt heavier from that moment on.

Her grip on the steering wheel tightened.

In the next second, she accelerated, changed lanes, and stopped on the shoulder, turning on the hazard lights.

She took her phone out of her bag and dialed a number.

The call connected, and before Cherise could say a word, the other side spoke, "Hey, sweetheart. Is everything alright? Where are you now?" A deep, captivating voice came through the receiver.
