NovelEnglishMy Billionaire Family 270 Cherise and Dora shared a knowing smile.
The restaurant wasn't very big, just two small tables away sat Nolan and his bodyguard, Torin. It was a weekday at noon, so there were only two tables of customers.
"As expected, beautiful women always hang out with other beautiful women," Torin laughed while talking to Nolan.
Nolan nodded in agreement. "Of course, they're all beautiful, but Cherise is definitely the prettiest!" Torin spoke with sdisdain, "Boss, wake up. You saw she has a boyfriend. Besides, you have a fiancée." Nolan rolled his eyes, realizing bringing Torin here wasn't the best idea. "What era is this? Still talking about arranged marriages. Plus, I've never even seen what my fiancée looks like. What if she's ugly? Wouldn't that be a loss for me? "To continue the Graves family's good looks in the next generation, Cherise is the perfect choice. Besides, I'm not just a shallow guy who only cares about looks.

Torin didn't want to deal with Nolan and focused on the menu, quietly muttering, "I've never seen a guy act so fake." After the meal, Xenia went to pay, but the shop owner told her that Nolan had already covered the bill before leaving. "Cherise, is that okay?" Xenia turned to ask Cherise.
Cherise raised an eyebrow but stayed silent. She definitely remembered Nolan. He was the popular star of the architecture department at Yase University back then. The other girls in their dorm often talked about him.
Cherise was never one to care about these matters, so she didn't keep this person in mind. Their only interaction was when she accidentally got locked in the professor's office, and when he gave her a chocolate because she was starving. She could have broken the door with a bit of force, but she didn't want to scare her classmates with such a rough action.
There was another time, in a little alley near Yase University, where she accidentally ran into Nolan and his assistant, who was the tall bodyguard next to him now. He had opened a small shelter for stray dogs, which wasn't large but housed many dogs. The owner of the stray dog shelter seemed to be his assistant, Torin. So, Cherise's impression of Nolan wasn't bad. Of course, it was important to be cautious. As the CEO of Umberdon Enterprises, he was probably more complex than he appeared.
***** When Nolan suddenly appeared at the restaurant and paid the bills for Cherise and her friends, Morris found out about it quite soon.
Just after they left the restaurant, they saw Morris striding toward them with Steven and Leo, his two assistants, following behind.
"He's here. Mr. Chivers is here. It must have been Hugh who tipped him off. Now I get why he put a bodyguard to watch over Cherise all the time. It's basically like a mobile surveillance camera.
"He's jealous! The second he heard there was another charming guy around, he rushed over," Xenia whispered to Cherise and Dora after seeing Morris.
Cherise didn't pay any attention to what Xenia was saying. As soon as Morris appeared, her eyes lit up, and the relaxed look she had with her friends turned into a sweet and loving gaze.
"Why are you here?" Cherise asked Morris when he cover to her.

Morris greeted Dora and Xenia with a nod before turning to Cherise. "Had serrands nearby and just finished them up.
m up. Heard from Hugh that you finished eating with Ms.
Xenakis and the others, so I cto take you home."
Leo, standing behind Morris, was awkwardly picking at his foot with his O head down. He found Morris unbelievable, Everything just seemed to fall into place for Morris effortlessly. An hour ago, Morris was out in the suburbs discussing a project. When he heard from Hugh that Nolan was in town and dining with Cherise, he rushed over.
Fifteen minutes ago, while he was still thirty minutes away, he knew that Nolan had already picked up the bill for Cherise.
When he heard this, he couldn't take it anymore and decided to drive m himself. The drive, usually half an hour, was cut down to just under fifteen minutes, scaring the life out of both Leo and Steven.
