Chapter 2756
Cherry, who had linked arms with Gloria, happily chirped, "I'll go over and visit her after we've eaten dinner."
Cherry had taken a fond liking for Gloria, in spite of knowing that she would not be with Stanley. She envied him for
having such an amazing mother, and if anything, Cherry actually felt at home under Gloria's wing.
Ever since they met over a blind date that Gloria had set them up on, Stanley had made it clear to her; they would
not progress beyond a relationship which Cherry could be on board with.
On the other hand, Cherry loathed her family for setting her up on blind dates without her consent. She did not
want anyone to interfere with who she wanted to be with. She had, for the longest time, been standing her ground
and protesting that she was old enough to make her own decisions.
At the dinner table, everyone chatted with one another happily. However, once the meal was almost over, Cherry

Stanley shook his head at Nicole as a response. He knew that Cherry and Tia were not fighting over him and that
Cherry was a compassionate person who would not look down on or asperse others. Above all, he knew Cherry's
intentions very well and thus, decided to let them talk it out on their own.
With her family urging her to get married as soon as possible, Cherry had been left with no choice but to leave. She
was left with no choice but to flee and leave behind all she had known.
Nicole eyed the smug look on Stanley's face, and suddenly, something occurred to her, causing her to drop the idea
of telling him off. 'Perhaps he has already gotten things figured out and doesn't want to use his and Cherry’s
relationship as a coverup for his true feelings anymore. But then again, Cherry could be the one trying to tie them
both down. It would be an uphill battle to make a man stay when his heart is already somewhere else.'
"Mom, Dad. We'll head upstairs now. Get Stanley to send Cherry back later," Nicole told her parents.
Catching the hint from Nicole, Gloria proceeded to warn Stanley. "Yeah, make sure you send her home safe and
sound.
"Yes, Mom!" Stanley replied.
Everyone then returned to their rooms. With Nicole being one of the last to leave, she gave Stanley a firm look
before heading up with Jared and the twins in tow.
'If I don't instruct him to send Cherry home, he would just leave her there to go home on his own. I doubt he's still
thinking of Tia,' Nicole thought.
Meanwhile, at the house in the backyard. Tia was taken aback by the Cherry’s sudden appearance.
"Why do you look so surprised? We're still friends, aren't we? " Cherry asked Tia, who looked well and truly
unimpressed.
"Yeah, we are," Tia awkwardly replied.

Tia did not have any intention of shutting Cherry out. She already had a hard time trying to accept Cherry and
Stanley's relationship as it was., but unfortunately, she had not found the courage to do so. She thought it would be
a good idea to have some time to herself and process her feelings slowly.
However, Cherry had cut straight to the chase. "Tia, do you like Stanley?"
Tia's face flushed, becoming as red as a tomato, and she vigorously shook her head. "Please don't misunderstand
me.
I don't like him."
"The more that you deny it, the more I'm convinced you do," Cherry teased as a smile played out on her face. If
you have genuine feelings for him, it means that his efforts aren't in vain."
"No, I think you have misunderstood me. Mr. Riddle and I are never getting together, and it's not what you think it
is. He has finally found someone he truly likes, so please cherish what you both have," Tia panicked.
'How am I supposed to explain this to Cherry? I don't want her to misunderstand me. I don't want to be the cause of
their breakup,' Tia thought.
