Not even ten minutes later, Morris finished his work.

He glanced at Cherise, who was reading a magazine on the couch, walked over, and sat down. "Cherise, we can go home now."

Cherise looked up and caught sight of the unopened lunch box at the corner of the desk. "Mr. Chivers, you haven't eaten yet? That's not good for your stomach. How about I join you for a little bite?" Morris followed Cherise's gaze. He chuckled, turned around, and ruffled Cherise's hair. "It feels great to have a girlfriend who cares about me."

An hour later, Morris and Cherise walked out of a burger joint in an alley near Glenshire Gardens.

Cherise puffed her cheeks in slight annoyance at Morris. "I said I was full, but you kept making me eat. Look at my little belly. It's not attractive anymore."

Morris was amused by Cherise and gently pinched her cheek. "I like it better when you're a bit chubby. No matter how much weight you put on, I'll still like you."

Cherise stopped and spoke seriously to Morris, "Xenia said that I can't always trust what a man says. If one day I really do get bigger, you might not think the same anymore.

"No way. I want to look beautiful, at least to make myself happy when I look in the mirror."

With that, she casually strolled ahead of Morris.

Morris stood behind, shaking his head in disbelief. "Xenia is always talking nonsense."

Morris took a few steps forward and caught up with Cherise, glancing at her pointy high heels. "Cherise, hop on. I'll carry you."

"Huh?" Cherise looked at him in confusion.

Morris pointed ahead. "There's a rough patch coming up. Those heels won't be easy to walk in. Come on. Get on my back."
