Chapter 640 Someone Is Framing Me
For the past five years, Cherise had distanced herself from the Tanner family. She had never tried to take Gwenn’s place in the family, yet her foster sister harbored an unexplainable resentment towards her.
As a result, Gwenn took every opportunity to tarnish Cherise’s reputation online. This was an unexpected outcome that Damien hadn’t anticipated.
Being an outsider in Lermille, Damien already found it difficult to manipulate the local media. He never could have predicted that Gwenn would intervene, even from thousands of
miles away.
However, Cherise couldn’t help but think about her encounter with Kareen the previous day… It all made sense now.
Over the years, Kareen and Gwenn had grown closer. Gwenn would undoubtedly be aware of any news concerning Cherise in Lermille.
“Dr. Keeples was rudely awakened by important figures early this morning and was extremely irritated. He was furious and instructed you to visit his office once you arrived…”
“Cherise, what should we do?” Lucy was restless and anxious. “If I didn’t know you so well and knew you wouldn’t say such things, I would have believed this recording! It sounds exactly like you!”
Cherise pursed her lips. “Damien found a voice actor who imitated my voice.” The woman frowned slightly. “It’s not that this issue can’t be resolved… It’s just a bit complicated.
Lucy pursed her lips and was about to say something when a nurse’s knock at the door interrupted her. “Dr. Shaw, Dr. Keeples is summoning you to his office now. If you don’t go, there will be consequences.”
Cherise furrowed her brows slightly. She gently removed Lucy’s tightly gripping hand from hers. “I’ll go speak with Dr. Keeples.” With that, she turned and left, ignoring whatever Lucy wanted to say.
“Dr. Keeples. The woman had just knocked on the hospital director’s office door when an ashtray was thrown towards the door. Cherise skillfully dodged the ashtray, which crashed. onto the marble floor.
“Good morning.” Cherise walked in slowly with a frown.
“You’re finally here!” The hospital director scratched his head and glared at her. “Close the door!”

Cherise obediently did as she was told.
“What were you thinking!?” Dr. Keeples scratched his head in confusion and looked at Cherise helplessly. “Even if you want to save Isaac Roebuck, you don’t have to sacrifice yourself! Now that you’ve sent the recording to the international media, this matter can’t be ignored!”
Cherise was taken aback. She realized that Dr. Keeples had misunderstood. He still believed. that Cherise had orchestrated the international articles to save Isaac.
“Dr. Keeples, I’m not that selfless.” The woman smiled faintly at him. He never imagined what she would say next. “I didn’t record this audio or send it to the media. Someone is framing
me.”
“Who is framing you?!” Dr. Keeples’ brows furrowed deeply. “Isaac?”
“No.” Cherise took a deep breath. She walked over and sat down in a chair before Dr. Keep looking at him steadily. “It’s Ms. Lane.”
Dr. Keeples almost choked on his drink. “Cherise, don’t make baseless accusations! Although Martha has always had some reservations about you, she was concerned about you when she asked me about it. She asked if we could be lenient with you since the incident happened so long ago…”
