Chapter 276
When Morris saw who came in, his face, which was once filled with tenderness, became indifferent. He was serious and stern. When he also heard the person call him “Mr. Leach, his previously calm expression turned dark, and his brows knitted tightly
The urge to harm started brewing.
Cherise looked down, biting her lip to stifle her laughter.
Morris looked at Cherise with a puzzled expression and asked, “Cherise, is this your student?“
“Oh,” Cherise lifted her head only when Morris asked, looking at him calmly. “Yes, she’s from the Architecture Department at Betrico University, Her name is Hamia Hawkins.”
Hannia nodded, “Yes, Mr. Leach, I’m from Betrico University’s Architecture Department. You can just call me Hannia.
“You’re the one cooking at home, right? As soon as we got off the elevator, we could smell it. It’s so good it could make a beauty cry and drive the neighbors crazy with hunger!” Saying this, she gave Morris a thumbs up.
After Hanna finished speaking, Morris simply stared at her silently, making the atmosphere a bit awkward,
Hannia shivered a bit, thinking. ‘Oh my, Cherise’s family looks intimidating.
Cherise cleared her throat. “Ahem. Um, Hannia. This is my boyfriend, Morris.”
Hannia was immediately stunned, letting out a couple of awkward laughs. “Heh, heh, I thought you were Cherise’s dad.”
After realizing something, she quickly corrected herself. “Oh. I was just joking! There’s no way someone that young. handsome, and charming could be a dad. So you’re her boyfriend! You guys look like a perfect match!”
Morris’s expression softened a bit. “Cherise, let’s have dinner firs. You, sit there and get your own plate and fork,” After saying that, he pointed nonchalantly at the chair on the far side of the table for Hannia.
Hannia got a fork and plate, and as soon as she sat down, she suddenly exclaimed, pointing at Morris, “Oh! I know who you are now, no wonder you looked familiar. You’re Morris, Mr. Chivers! The richest man in Clusia!
I’ve seen you on TV and in magazines. I’ve also heard the gossip girls in our class talk about you two. I didn’t care back then. but it turns out you guys are really together! I’m deciding right now to be your biggest shipper!”
Morris ignored her and used a fork to pick up a piece of beef for Cherise. “Cherise, give it a try.”
Hannia noticed the two quietly eating and remembered what Cherise had told her before leaving, so she quietly picked up her fork and began to eat. She thought the family Cherise had referred to must be Morris.
After finishing the meal, Hannia happily wiped her mouth with napkin. Honestly, this was the best meal she’d ever had. It had the warmth of home and the flavor of a gourmet chef.
Yet, for some reason, Morris looked at her as if she were an enemy, his gaze carrying a hint of menace, making the dining atmosphere a bit tense.
However, he was genuinely good to Cherise, spoiling her by constantly serving her food, as if he couldn’t wait to feed her himself. For a moment, Hannia felt completely out of place here.
Cherise was full too and put down her fork. “Hannia, are y
you
Cherise nodded, finally able to speak. “Yeah, I’m very full and very satisfied. The food was great.”

“Then go wash the dishes–Morris suddenly said.
“Huh?” Cherise asked in confusion.
94111
Morris crossed his arms, his eyes showing clear disdain. He four Hannia even more talkative than Xenia. “Didn’t you say you could do chores?
His intense gaze made Cherise quickly stand up and rush to take the plates to the kitchen.
After Cherise finished cleaning the dishes and the table and car out of the kitchen, she found Morris sitting alone on the couch. Next to him was a tall man who looked just like the driver who had brought them back.
The man handed a document to Morris, glanced at her, and then left the room.
“Sit.” Morris pointed to the couch farthest from him, motioning for Cherise to take a seat. He looked serious.
For some reason, at that moment, Morris gave Cherise the impression of being like a judge seritencing a criminal, which made her start to tremble. She awkwardly walked to the couch and sat down. “Uh-
She was just about to speak when Morris interrupted her, “Cherise? Who is Carrick to you?”
Cherise hesitated for a moment and then replied honestly, “Uh. Carrick is my grandfather.”
Seeing she was telling the truth, Morris nodded. “Your Hawkins family is truly noble, yet you have to couch surf.” After that, his expression changed again. “It doesn’t matter why you’re here You can stay at 2601 for just tonight, but only tonight.
“I just hope you won’t bring your complicated family drama into Cherise’s life. You should go now, ask her to come over quickly. Also, be more careful with how you judge people.
Hannia felt like a giant stone was weighing down on her heart, making her so anxious she couldn’t breathe. All she could do was nod repeatedly. She thought, “Why does this guy look so intimidating when Cherise isn’t around? I really admire Cherise.
