Chapter 618 The Beauty Store Buzz
Cherise strolled through the mall, her gaze fixed on clothing with price tags far beyond her means. “When did I become Isaac’s rival?” she wondered.
Hadn’t they always been allies?
Isaac had even once referred to her as his mentor!
“Since when were we not rivals?”
Lucy alternated between selecting bracelets and giving Cherise a sympathetic look. “You were so engrossed in your research that you didn’t notice the rumors, right?”
Cherise paused, then nodded.
She had no idea how she and Isaac had become rivals.
“Isaac was once Ms. Lane’s most promising protégé.”
Lucy gestured toward the bracelets in the display case, casually glancing at Cherise, who was scanning the surroundings. “Weren’t you the one who received the only chance for a study abroad program from our hospital?” Lucy confirmed.
“If it hadn’t been for you, Isaac would have had that opportunity.”
“Your emergence was unexpected, and the fact that you could guide Isaac in surgery sets you apart. You’re not on the same level, so it was rightfully given to you.”
Cherise paused.
There had been quite a commotion when she first arrived at Lermille Hospital.
“So we became rivals just like that?”
Lucy rolled her eyes and scoffed, “Of course not.”
“There are various factors at play. The young quota in our hospital’s cardiac surgery department is yours.”
“I’ve seen Ms. Lane passionately advocating for Isaac, even clashing with the Dean to secure him an opportunity!”
“Ms. Lane had a clear goal to mentor Isaac. If it weren’t for your presence, Isaac might have been successful by now…”
Cherise paused.
She had been oblivious to all these things Lucy mentioned.
However, since she brought it up, Cherise did recall.
