Chapter 2808
Ultimately, Cherry felt that her family was so upset with her that they might even consider disowning her.
Sensing Cherry's sadness, Stanley hesitated for a moment and said, "After you leave, I think your father will
approach me. I'll try to talk him out of it."
For a moment, Cherry's eyes lit up. "Thank you for that."
She knew her father had a very favorable impression of Stanley. If Stanley spoke well of her, there was a chance
that her father would not be as angry and saddened by what she had done.
As they shared this sympathetic farewell, the others chatted away. No one was aware that Tia had been gone for
quite some time.
"Where's Tia?" Nicole frowned and asked after everyone had eaten their fill.
"She said she went to the restroom," Cherry answered.

she?" "I'll go check on her," Stanley abruptly stood up and headed toward the exit.
With that, Cherry followed suit, "She's in the women's restroom."
Stanley was so anxious that he had forgotten about the fact that he could not enter the women's restroom.
"I hope Tia is okay," Lulu remarked in concern.
"Let's wait for a bit. Stanley and Cherry have gone out to look for her. They should be back soon," June advised,
though her gaze had drifted toward the exit as well.
Meanwhile, Nicole was biting her lip worrying about Tia. She was wondering what had taken Tia so long to return to
the room.
After ten minutes, Cherry returned to the room alone.
"Where are they?" Lulu anxiously asked.
"Tia is really drunk. She collapsed at the entrance of the restroom. Stanley has decided to drive her back. Don't
worry. He said he will take care of her, " Cherry explained.
"Alright, with Stanley taking care of her, we can all rest easy,” June nodded.
She then asked Nicole. "We’re almost done eating. How about we leave in a few minutes too?" "Sure," the others
agreed.
After all, the night was getting late, and everyone needed to get some good sleep for the day after.
"Let's go then."
As everyone stood up and prepared to leave, Cherry addressed the entire group and said, "Thank you all for
coming to see me off. I won't inform you about my departure from the airport the day after tomorrow. Farewells
are a little hard for me." "Okay, we won't see you off. When you come back, we'll remember to pick you up,
though," Lulu said before giving her a beaming smile.
"I think I'll be back soon." Cherry returned the smile. "My return will depend on Stanley and Tia." "That might be
sooner than expected!" they said, whereupon everyone shared a knowing laugh.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter that dinner, everyone in the room had a clearer understanding of Stanley’s feelings for Tia. If Stanley could
just be a little more straightforward with his intentions, the moment they had all been waiting for would not be far
off.
As everyone was about to leave, Cherry noticed a group of people coming out from the adjacent private room.
At the front was Harvey, and behind him were a few people whom Nicole could recognize with a single glance.
"Harvey still hasn't given up," Lulu muttered, catching Nicole's attention.
The men in the other room were the executives of the companies Nicole had secured all those projects from. It
seemed that Harvey had invited them for a meal, most likely to discuss project-related matters.
Harvey was standing frozen with his mouth agape, as he did not expect to run into Nicole and the others. Both sides
were taken by surprise, making the situation very awkward for everyone involved.
"Let's go," June called out, breaking the silence.
Both parties gradually walked away without greeting the other side, pretending as if they had not bumped into each
other at all.
