Chapter 64 Sparkle In Her Eyes

Walking next to her, lan could not help but notice the radiant sparkle in her

This was a Cherise Shaw he had never seen before.

eyes.

She had always been a cheerful lady in the past, but never like this, radiating the glow of happiness so vividly.

Jealousy crawled its way into lan's heart.

What's so special about that old and bald man?!

How does he deserve her love and sacrifice? Even Grandma Mary approves of him!

As they reached the gate, Cherise turned to say goodbye to lan. "I'm off to the sanatorium!"

With those words, she slung her little backpack over her shoulder and headed in the direction of the bus stop.

lan grabbed the strap of her backpack and pulled her towards him. "I happen to have a few patients at the sanatorium who I need to visit. Let me give you a lift." "In that case, thanks lan!"

Cherise did not hesitate and hopped into lan's car.

On the way to work, lan thought about bringing up Damien several times but decided. against it.

He understood that learning more about the man would lead to nothing but agony and pain.

He recalled the way Cherise used to look at him when they first met, her eyes twinkling like stars.

His classmates used to tease him. "That junior seems to be fond of you. Aren't you going to take the first step?"

He would respond with a faint smile. "I have plenty of juniors who like me."

Now, though she treated him with the same amount of respect, that sparkle in her eyes belonged to another man.

They soon arrived at the nursing room.

lan walked her to her station before leaving.

"Tsk tsk, you even have a cute guy to keep you company now."

Lila sneered and dumped a pile of used bed sheets in front of Cherise. "You were missing. yesterday, so I saved these for you."

Cherise looked at the towering heap of sheets, feeling a bit troubled. "Is the washing machine still not working?"

She had spent the whole afternoon washing bed sheets the other day, and her wrists were aching by the time she finished!

Besides, the materials which the sheets were made of were stiff and difficult to maneuver.

"Nah, it hasn't been repaired."

Lila replied with a cold sneer. She crouched to Cherise's eye level and fixed a cold gaze on her. "What's the matter? Can't you handle a bit of washing?" "Or perhaps now that you've found a man to dote on you, you're refusing to get your hands dirty?" Cherise did not miss the sarcasm in Lila's remark, but she chose to lower her head. "I'll try my best."

It might be challenging, but since she had taken on this job, she was determined to get it done!

lan stepped out of the sanatorium director's office with half an hour to spare before hist afternoon shift.

With extra time on his hands, he headed to the second floor for Cherise.

Earlier, he had requested Lila to assign lighter tasks for Cherise, like making and serving. tea to the patients.

By that logic, she should have been stationed on the second floor, but he searched part of the floor and could not replace her.

It was only after someone pointed it out that he learned Cherise was in the laundry.

The laundry room was tucked away in a corner of the sanatorium's backyard.

He pushed the door open, revealing several large washing machines with 'Out of Order' signs taped on them.

At the far end of the laundry, he saw a petite girl standing barefoot in a basin, her hands and feet covered in foamy suds. When she heard the door open, she looked up. "Tan?"

lan furrowed his brows and approached her with large strides. "Cherise, why are you doing this?"
