Chapter 175 A Rumored Reality
Even though they could assist the restaurant owner during their stay, Vivian and her entourage might
become even more problematic once they leave. Cherise knew she couldn’t stay here to offer help,
leaving her regretful.
Damien keenly observed Cherise’s downcast expression and glimpsed a layer of profound emotion in
her eyes.
Upon returning to the car after their meal, Cherise’s spirits were still low. However, as the car gradually
approached the small village she once called home, the young woman’s excitement couldn’t be
contained. Eagerly, she began introducing the area’s geography to everyone, anticipating the reunion
with her family.
Finally, as the car passed a massive willow tree, they arrived at Cherise’s uncle’s home, Elvis Shaw’s
residence.
The moment the car came to a stop, the young girl hastily exited and dashed into the yard.

past two in the afternoon, and Mary Dawson was basking in the sun by her wall. Beside her, her
daughter-in-law, Sarah, was sorting out the soles of her shoes.
“Grandma! Aunt Sarah!”
The young girl’s excited voice reverberated crisply through the yard.
Sarah and Mary raised their heads, witnessing Cherise sprinting towards them. They couldn’t help but
break into smiles.
Cherise threw herself into the arms of the kind-hearted old lady. “Grandma! I’ve missed. you so much!”
The old lady patted her back lovingly and asked, “Why are you back suddenly?”
“I missed you, so I came back!”
Sarah also smiled and asked, “Did you come back alone?”
“No!”
Cherise beamed and lifted her head, pointing towards the door. “I brought my husband with me!”
Sarah looked in the direction of the door and noticed Damien, who was seated in a wheelchair, being
pushed by Blake.

Her complexion paled instantly. “Cherise, why did you bring the young master of the Lenoirs here?”
Cherise was taken aback, realizing that Sarah’s response was far from welcoming. “My husband has
never been to the countryside before. I just brought him along…”
Sarah looked at Damien from a distance, her expression somewhat unpleasant, and she lowered her
voice. “Ben from next door recently had a falling out with your uncle. He’s been spreading rumors in the
village, claiming that your uncle couldn’t resolve his issues. until he married you off to a disabled
person.”
She gazed at Cherise reproachfully. “Why didn’t you give us a heads-up? The whole village has been
making fun of our family lately. Your uncle has been isolating himself at home. due to this situation.
Bringing Mr. Lenoir here now, aren’t you adding to the chaos?”
Ben was Vivian’s father.

Sarah’s explanation clarified why Vivian had caused trouble when they were in town. Cherise pursed
her lips. “What should we do then?”
Damien had taken the time to accompany her back. Cherise was too excited to anticipate the potential
problems at home. In the countryside, rumors spread much faster than in the city. Being constantly
pointed at and talked about by everyone was undeniably uncomfortable.
Mary squinted thoughtfully as she leaned against the earthen wall, her gaze filled with warmth as she
regarded Cherise. “Don’t bother yourself with that nonsense. Go enjoy your time with Mr. Lenoir.”
“This is, in fact, our reality-people aren’t making it up,” Mary further emphasized.
Meanwhile, Sarah stayed silent, her lips tightly pressed together.
Inside, Damien had already been guided into the house by Blake, where they joined the
others.
Behind them, Mr. Kolson held a collection of gift bags, big and small.
The dogs in the yard began to bark, and Elvis Shaw, who had been inside the house all this. time,
emerged.
