Chapter 622 Cheriseâs Lipstick Purchase
Today, Cherise appeared noticeably more composed in both her speech and actions.
She had to find a way to navigate around Kareen.
Kareen scoffed, picked up the lipstick Cherise had given her, strutted in her seven-inch heels, and exited with a flourish.
After Kareen left, Lucy appeared shocked but gave Cherise an enthusiastic thumbs-up.
Three years ago, when she first arrived in Lermille to search for Cherise, she witnessed a heated argument between Cherise and Kareen.
Cherise used to struggle to express herself, often suppressing her frustration during arguments with Kareen.
NowâŠ
Cherise was articulate, and Kareen was left speechless.
Cherise gave her friend a thumbs-up, handed Lucy the black card, and said, âI owe it all to your excellent guidance.â
She then looked at the card, which Kareen had linked to Damien.
This black card was unmistakably a symbol of the Lenoir family.
And among these business cards, the âLenoirâ black card was the highest tier.
It could even be inferred that only individuals like Damien and Maeve could use it.
The woman waved the card in her hand, looked at Lucy, and asked, âIs this card yours?â
Lucy avoided making eye contact with Cherise and chuckled awkwardly. âItâs a card from a friend,â she explained.
âHe said he wanted to lend it to me so I could buy some nice clothes.â
Cherise didnât believe a word of it.
Her friend thought her clothes were ugly, so he gave her a black card to buy clothes.
Lucy would have gone on a shopping spree by now if she were really like that.
During the shopping trip, Lucy refrained from making any purchases. It wasnât until Cherise
needed help paying for a lipstick that Lucy pulled out her black card.
This card was either given to her by Damien or Maeve.
Under Cheriseâs piercing gaze, Lucy didnât know how to evade, so she had to reluctantly nod and admit. âThis card is indeed from the Lenoir family.â
âIt was given to me by Maeve.â
Lucy and Cherise walked side by side out of the mall, and Lucy glanced at Cherise and said casually, âI didnât expect Maeve to apologize.â
Cherise scoffed, âI donât care if she apologizes.â
âShe hurt my mom, and I canât forgive her on behalf of my mom.â
Lucy sighed, âWhat about Damien?â
âWeâll deal with that when the time comes.
âAnd this cardâŠâ
âHold onto it for now.â
Cherise sighed deeply and put the black card in her wallet, âIâll return it to him when the timing is right.â
âFor now, I might need to borrow it.
After spending over three thousand dollars on two lipsticks and with Seraâs tuition due in a few days, she couldnât repay the money to him so quickly.
If she couldnât repay the money, she wouldnât be able to return the card to him.
Damien would surely not pursue her for the over three thousand.
She couldnât spend his money as freely as before in their current relationship.
After they left the mall, they drove directly back to the hospital.
Cherise had mainly carried the bag with the new lipstick in it.
This lipstick was the latest model of a significant European brand.
The nurseâs station was abuzz when Cherise returned to the hospital with this bag.
âDr. Shaw bought that lipstick!â
âDr. Shaw doesnât wear makeup. Why did she buy that expensive lipstick?â
