Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

Chapter 496

Seeing the situation, Cherise took two quick steps back, acting as though it had nothing to do with her.

Morris, however, furrowed his brows in displeasure.

Indeed, he was somewhat irritated. Setting aside the fact that he was being ignored, what really bothered him was how Hank had suddenly stepped between him and Cherise. It made him feel uneasy. Morris cleared his throat twice. "If you have something to say, say it. Don't stand so close to me

His voice was stern, with a hint of disdain and mild reprimand. Hank froze for a moment, standing awkwardly and looking guilty.

Cherise, noticing Morris' expression, didn't approach. Her first impression of Hank had been ambiguous, and she wanted to see how Hank would handle the situation next.

Hank stood there, head lowered, before slowly raising it to look at Morris. "Mr. Chivers, do you not like what I did? I'm sorry if I upset you.

"I just got a fittle too excited. I'll be more careful next time. Please don't let me ruin your mood for the day. It's not worth it."

Nearby, Leo, who was talking to Hugh under a tree, overheard Hank and couldn't help but mutter, "Ugh... do all the young guys these days know how to put on such a show?"

Morris didn't say anything, his hand gripping the car door handle as he pointed at Hank. "This is the last time. And don't interrupt when I'm talking to Cherise."

He quickly opened the car door, waved at Cherise, and then got in.

Cherise, standing at the back, couldn't help but chuckle lightly and waved her hand toward Morris.

As the car pulled away, Hank turned to Cherise. "Ms. Leach, do you think Mr. Chivers is really upset?"

Cherise shrugged. "Maybe."
