Chapter 320

The familiar morning in Saphira had returned. Cherise stood on the balcony of her room, taking a long, refreshing breath of fresh air. Her mood was clearly lifted. After a moment, she looked over at Morris, still deep in sleep, and smiled softly.

The night before, he'd overindulged a bit. Dennis had made the liquor himself, and it was strong, leaving Morris unaware of Cherise's movements as she got up. Rather than disturb him, Cherise decided to let him sleep a little longer. She changed into some workout clothes and tied her hair into a ponytail.

Leaning over the bed, she whispered softly, "Mr. Chivers, I'm going out for a run."

As she spoke, she brushed her lips lightly against his. Morris, still lost in his dreams, smiled at her touch.

Before she could pull away, his hand reached out and gently pulled her head back, deepening their morning moment. A few minutes later, Morris reluctantly let her go. Cherise, her cheeks slightly flushed, looked at him shyly. "Aren't you worried Dennis and Bella will notice your door open and jump to conclusions?"
