Chapter 75 GI

Cherise looked at the somewhat silly Hugh, thought for a moment, and then slowly asked, "So was it you driving t car following me on Serenity Road today?"

Hugh scratched his head and smiled. "Ms. Leach, you guessed right, but your driving skills are really great."

Cherise spoke calmly again, "So are you from the Dark Web Division?"

Jack

Cherise observed Hugh. His skills seemed decent, but he appeared a bit goofy, leaving her uncertain about his intelligence. Hugh nodded, surprised that Cherise, despite her young age, knew about the Dark Web Division. That was impressive. He thought, 'Anyway, she's one of our people. Mr. Chivers already said it's okay if Ms. Leach knows.

Cherise was momentarily stunned, not expecting Hugh to admit it so openly. If he was part of the Dark Web Division, Morris had the possibility to be one too. "And Morris? Is he too?

Hugh continued nodding looking clueless. Cherise understood, no wonder she couldn't replace specific information on Morris before, as he was protected by the Dark Web Division. Then, a thought flashed through her mind. Looking at Hugh, she asked, "Could Morris be the leader?"

Hugh shook his head and replied, "No, we signed a life-and-death contract and never saw the leader's face. It's definitely not Mr. Chivers."

After saying that, cold sweat trickled down his back. He thought. That life-and-death contract isn't just for show. I nearly gave myself away, but fortunately, I'm smart.

Cherise looked at Hugh, noting his honest and simple demeanor, and was somewhat convinced.

Then you should go home tonight and spend time with your mom. I can take care of myself," she said, turning to head upstairs.

Hugh ran over, blocking Cherise. He said, "Ms. Leach, earlier today you lost me when I was following you, and now Mr. Chivers is going to punish me.

"If you send me back, he'll definitely kill me when he gets back. m staying in 2602; if you need anything, please let me know, okay?"

He looked at Cherise with pleading eyes. Seeing that he was just following orders and wasn't bothering her, Cherise agreed. The next moment, Hugh's phone rang. "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine..."

As Hugh answered the call, Cherise suddenly looked up. She thought, That voice, is it Morris singing?

It was so familiar, like she had heard it somewhere before, but just couldn't remember where.

Her thoughts were interrupted by Hugh. "Ms. Leach, Mr. Chiver wants you to take the call."

Cherise glanced at the phone that was ringing, picked it up, and said, "Hello, Calm and concise.

"Cherise, I apologize for having someone follow you without your consent," said Morris from the other end of the line. For some reason, hearing Morris's familiar voice made Cherise frustration from being reprimanded by Jacob surface instantly Her throat tightened, and she didn't know how to start speaking.

Morris seemed to have sensed Cherise's emotions. "Cherise, wall

Cherise still didn't say much. She just softly replied, "Okay, and ended the call

Morris looked at the phone screen after the call ended, a mix of emotions swirling in his dark eyes. He thought, "Well, Jacob, if you don't know how to value her, then let me take good care of her Meanwhile, Cherise and Hugh went back to the 26th floor

"Ms. Leach, goodnight. Please go inside first. I'll let Mr. Chivers know once you're safely in your room" Cherise nodded and was about to close the door when she suddenly said, "Hugh, your ringtone just now?" Hugh replied, "Oh, that? The last time we were at Ebb & Flow, it was Mr. Chivers's first time singing opportunity, so I recorded it.

"And I must say that Mr. Chivers sang quite well. Ms. Leach, do you want to see the video? I can go inside to charge my phone and send it to you, because it just ran out of battery earlier Cherise nodded, said "Okay, and then closed the door.
