Chapter 2757
'For the first time in a long time, he openly announced his relationship with her to his family. For him to do
something like that takes a lot of courage. He must've thought very highly of her. I don’t want to be the third
wheeler here,' Tia continued.
With an expression of sympathy on her face, Cherry looked at Tia and said, "Tia, have you never once considered
that the person you love shares the same feelings for you too?"
It was at that moment that Cherry understood why Tia was so afraid of crossing the line. 'She cares much more
about Stanley than I've previously thought.'
Cherry then reflected on how Tia had reacted when she attempted to pair the two of them together. Whenever
Cherry tried to create opportunities to bring them both closer together, Tia would crumble into a panicky mess.
'My efforts have pushed her to the point where she would guard her emotions even more fiercely. I'm afraid that
dragging this on in the long run will obliterate whatever feelings they have for one another in the long run,' Cherry

It was at that moment that Cherry began blaming her parents again for how things had turned out. 'I would not
have gotten in the way if I knew it was going to mess the both of them up. I wouldn't have done this if my parents
weren't as pushy as they were."
Then, an idea suddenly occurred to her, and she reached out to grab Tia's hand. "Listen to me, okay? Stanley really
likes you and whatever it is that is happening between Stanley and I, it's all just for show."
Tia was rendered speechless at an instant. "It's all...for show?"
What Cherry said had left her in complete disbelief. 'What is she blabbering about?'
"To be honest, I was just helping Stanley out with a mutual favor for each other..." Cherry began, after which she
told the entire story in full detail to Tia.
"Why are you telling me all of this?" Tia asked, her brows furrowed in confusion.
"Because I'm going to be leaving soon." Cherry smiled. "I'm going to live abroad with my true love where we will
both be free from all that nonsense."
"So you have a real boyfriend?" Tia asked while struggling to wrap her head around the information Cherry had
filled her in on.
She found it difficult to process what Cherry had just told her, and at this point, she could not help but wonder if this
was all just a dream.
"Yeah! Why would I lie to you? Stanley has done me a huge favor, and I'll be damned if I don't return it. That is why I
came here to talk to you about this," Cherry explained.
"Oh," Tia murmured as the realization dawned upon her.
'If Cherry's leaving, Stanley and Cherry are not really together. If that's the case, Stanley and I...,' Tia trailed off.
"Tia, I'll have you know that Stanley genuinely cares for you. I'm a hundred percent sure that you have a special
place in his heart, but he's under the impression that you have feelings for someone else. Is that true?" Cherry
asked, serious and unsmiling.
'If Tia has feelings for someone else, why would she be more affectionate to him? And if she does not, then why did
Stanley interpret it that way?' she pondered.

feelings for someone else?!'
Having caught a glimpse of Tia's expression, Cherry immediately understood the situation between them. "To be
honest, he's just a lone wolf who's gotten too used to doing everything by himself. I won't be surprised if he grows
old alone."
'I don't even know what I should do with him. He's not even sure about who he likes,' Cherry thought.
"Actually...it's not like that," Tia said in a faint whisper.
In response, Cherry looked at Tia and busted out laughing." You two really are a match made in heaven."
'They truly are two peas in a pod,' she thought.
Tia's face became beet red as she went into denial mode again. "No, it's not like that."
"Alright, I'll stop here. You guys should sort this out between yourselves. I'm going to leave in the next few days, so I
hope I won't do anything that'll make me regret it," Cherry said as she stood up.
She gave Tia one last look and said, "Tia, I hope that you won't do anything you'll regret either."
Then, she patted Tia on the shoulder before turning around and walking away.
