Chapter 546 Echoes Of Duty
Cherise took a deep breath before finally nodding in agreement. “Alright.”
If dedicating a day could significantly benefit her department, she was prepared to make that sacrifice.
After all, she was not one to indulge in pretentiousness.
However, she failed to see why someone of her professional caliber should be tasked with a mere
check- up.
Yet, faced with the tempting proposal laid out by the other party, she found it difficult to decline.
“Cherise, I knew you’d come through!”
Her supervisor exclaimed, his voice bubbling with excitement as he clasped her hand. “Good deeds are
always rewarded!” he beamed.
Cherise responded with a casual air, deftly picking up the file from the table. “Let me know when the
patient arrives,” she stated matter-of-factly, her tone devoid of any emotion.
“I’m off to do rounds now.”
“Okay!” The supervisor replied, his voice still laced with excitement.
Cherise, file in hand, left to attend to her patients, her steps measured and purposeful. The supervisor,

she’s agreed!”
As Cherise made her rounds, checking on each patient diligently, she eventually came to Maeve, who
had undergone surgery the day before.
Despite her reluctance, driven by a professional sense of duty, she sighed and made her way to
Maeve’s
ward.
Every doctor must be compassionate, she reminded herself. She couldn’t allow personal grievances to
overshadow a patient’s care.
After all, this was a matter of life.
As she approached the ward, the words of Charisa Miles echoed in her mind.
Cherise, if you wish to be a doctor, pursue it with all your heart. Don’t let go of your dream just because
your parents are in business.
Your mother’s quest for revenge and profit has hurt many.
Your becoming a doctor could be seen as a way to atone for her actions.
With these words ringing in her ears, Cherise took a moment, her eyes closed in reflection, before
pushing open the door to Maeve’s ward.
Inside, Maeve was holding hands with Charles, deeply engrossed in discussing their child’s name.
“Let’s name her Talia Luther,” Charles suggested earnestly.

“She needs to stick to a light diet. Don’t buy into any old wives tales about lactation. Everyone is
different If there’s not enough breast milk, formula will do just fine.”
Charles nodded earnestly, absorbing every word “Understood, completely”
“Hmm”
Cherise then stood up, tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear. “If there’s no other question, I’ll take
my leave.”
She moved towards the door but was stopped by Marve’s voice Cherise, wait a moment, Maeve called
out softly
Cherise turned, a slight frown creasing her forehead. “How can I help you?”
Maeve’s lips were pursed as she spoke softly. “Do you have a moment?
“I need to talk to you”
Cherise Shaw glanced at her watch, “I did have time,” she replied, her voice tinged with regret.
“But unfortunately, today I am bound to a physical examination for a high-profile patient, so I don’t have
any spare time to chat”
Marve’s mouth fell open, her words left unspoken.
