Chapter 275 There’s Really Nothing Between Us
Jessie remarked smugly. “He even lent Mandy his car and driver for as long as a week. That’s enough to indicate their relationship, isn’t it?”
Only then did Cherise realize why Damien had personally sent her to school this morning. It turned out the car and Mr. Kolson were now at Mandy’s disposal.
She frowned. Despite feeling slightly uncomfortable about it, she could understand that it was necessary to establish a good relationship with Mandy to investigate her more deeply. Moreover, this arrangement was just temporary.
Cherise never cared much about these things. In fact, she wouldn’t mind taking the public bus as long as she could arrive at school on time. So, she wasn’t bothered.
“Judging by your confused look, I bet you didn’t know about the matter.” Jessie continued to challenge Cherise.
Cherise nodded. “Yeah. I wasn’t aware.”
Jessie gloated. “See, Damien didn’t even tell Cherise that he lent the car and the driver to Mandy. They don’t seem like a normal couple at all. Why are you denying that you guys have parted ways, Cherise?”
Cherise found Jessie’s assumption ridiculous. “Why does that imply we’re not a normal couple?” She glanced at Jessie with a serious look. “If your dad wants to lend his car to someone else, will he ask for your mom’s permission first?”
Instantly, Jessie’s triumphant expression froze. Everyone in the class knew her family was poor and couldn’t afford a car. Her father would ride a motorcycle to the school’s parents’ day.
The comment was an utter humiliation to Jessie!
The blood drained from Jessie’s face.
After a moment of silence, Lucy burst out laughing. “Cherry, your question has really stumped Jessie. Her family doesn’t own a car!”
Cherise was startled. “I see.”
