Chapter 869 Unwarranted Accusations: The Kindergarten Incident
“The original intention of performing surgery on Aunt Charisa was also to hope that she could get
better, right?”
“You’re not wrong. Those who think you’re wrong are the ones who don’t understand the situation at all.
You don’t need to pay attention to them.”
Cherise pursed her lips. In fact, she comprehended the rationale behind Lucy’s words. Damien had
reiterated it to her numerous times before.
She had used these words over the past five years to admonish herself.
Yet, the prospect of unveiling her scars before a multitude filled her with dread.
Words wield immense power.
She dreaded being pointed at and whispered about wherever she went, and she recoiled at the thought
of enduring the gossip that would follow every job change.
Nevertheless, it seemed there was no alternative but to confront it.
“Alright, where there’s a will, there’s a way.”
Lucy, seated beside Cherise, added, “Besides, you still have Damien by your side!”
Cherise remained silent, her lips tightly pressed together.
Initially, Cherise believed that by staying home, she could shield herself from the repercussions
echoing outside.
Yet, on the second day of the ordeal, she received an alarming call from her son’s kindergarten teacher
at noon.“Mrs. Lenoir, you may need to come to the kindergarten.”
“Your son, Soren, hit two children today, and now the parents are demanding compensation…”
At that moment, Cherise was at home meticulously organizing the evidence to refute the plagiarism
accusations. When the phone call shattered the silence of her concentration, she leaped from her chair
in a sudden jolt of panic. “How could this happen!?”
Soren, typically known for his prudence and thoughtfulness, did not resort to physical confrontation.
How could he possibly have struck another child?
“Teacher, is there a misunderstanding? How could Soren hit someone?”
“I assure you, there’s no mistake. Soren indeed struck the child.”
The teacher’s tone grew impatient. “Mrs. Lenoir, don’t presume others lack professional integrity as you
do.”
“If you can plagiarize papers, who’s to say your son’s moral fiber isn’t tainted?”
Before Cherise could respond, the teacher abruptly ended the call.
Cherise was trembling with the phone in her hand.
Raising her gaze, she found herself momentarily blinded by the brilliance of the midday sun, its
radiance too intense for her eyes to bear.
After steadying her breath deeply, she regained her composure, swiftly changed her attire, and stepped
out of the house.
As Cherise made her way from the hospital entrance to Soren’s location, she wore a hat and mask to
conceal her identity. Despite her disguise, she couldn’t escape the whispers of passersby along the
corridors.
“Hey, I used to admire her, but I didn’t expect her to be a thief!”
“Well, you have no taste. I knew from when she openly admitted that she had no medical ethics over a
month ago that this woman could do anything without moral boundaries!”
“What a shame… I used to envy the president of Lenoir Group for finding such a good woman as his Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
wife. But now it seems…”
“Hahaha, do you think Damien intended to divorce her after this scandal broke out?”
Cherise maintained her silence.
As she overheard the cruel remarks echoing around her, each comment felt like a blade piercing
Cherise’s heart.
She clenched her fists as she hastened toward the designated floor.
“Why isn’t she here yet!?”
Upon reaching the floor, Cherise overheard a woman scolding her son. “You brat, is your mom too
scared to come?”
Defiantly, Soren retorted, “My mom will definitely come if she says so!”
