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.

She and Isaac had indeed been in a competitive position at certain times.

But she hadn’t felt it because they had always collaborated and had a good relationship.

Now that Lucy mentioned it, it all came back to her quickly.

So Ms. Lane had been harboring resentment against her for a long time.

So she sighed. Since things had come to this point, she could only take it one step at a time.

Lucy accompanied Cherise to the mall for a while.

Cherise had no interest in luxury goods, and Lucy didn’t find anything she liked. Lucy grew weary after

aimlessly meandering through the mall for a while.

She looked at Cherise and pleaded, “Shall we head back?”

Cherise, who also felt exhausted, nodded in response.

But she looked at their empty hands and remembered what Damien had suggested about buying a

scarf or lipstick.

It seemed… she hadn’t bought lipstick in a long time.

Cherise maintained a diligent and conscientious approach to her work. She rarely wore makeup her

daily routine included applying lotion before heading to work. As such, a tube of lipstick could last her

several years.

She decided to buy lipstick after comparing the prices of scarves and lipsticks.

It was within her budget for an international lipstick brand, which only cost a few hundred each.

Lucy observed a woman enthusiastically entering the beauty store and remarked, “Someone who

hasn’t worn makeup in centuries wouldn’t be buying lipstick if not for Damien.”

Cherise glared at her, then turned and walked in to try on different shades.

There was a dazzling array of brands and shades.

Cherise was about to test the third shade when footsteps interrupted her.

Then, the jubilant voices of the beauty store staff announced collectively, “Ms. Miles,

welcome!
