A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1404

Cherish blushed at Perrin's comment. She stared at her brother and thought, 'Can't he say something nice about me for once?'

Perrin was amused by Cherish's embarrassed expression. He impishly messed up her hair.

"Don't go around wreaking havoc here, okay? If you do, I will immediately take you back home and confiscate all your pocket money," Perrin said. He winked at his sister and flashed her a mischievous smile.

"Humph!" Cherish glared at Perrin.

"You have to forgive my sister, Auntie. She doesn't like being called spoiled, although it's the truth," Perrin turned to Leah. He pinched his sister's cheek, trying to annoy her more.

"No worries. You two are so adorable. I wish I had a daughter, too," Leah replied, smiling.

"I'll get going now. Thank you for warmly welcoming my sister to your home," he said. After getting in the car, Perrin rolled down his window and waved goodbye.

"Drive safe, dear," Leah reminded. She held Cherish's hand as Perrin drove away.

After Perrin was gone, Leah led Cherish into the house.

"Let's go see your room, Cherish. I had it decorated. I'm not sure if you'll like it, but I'll have it changed if you don't," Leah told Cherish excitedly. She could not help smiling. She and Cherish were about to go to the guest room when Carlos pulled her aside to talk to her privately.

"Mother, Cherish can't even take care of herself. How do you expect her to take care of me?" Carlos asked with raised eyebrows.

Carlos knew clearly what his mother was trying to do.

"How could you say that? She came here willingly for you. You should be thankful," Leah said crossly, glaring at her son.

"You worry about me too much. I'm fine. I don't need help," Carlos replied.

"Cherish came all the way here for you, Carlos. Do you want me to drive her back home? Wouldn't that be a little ungracious?" she asked.

"Mother..." Carlos still wanted to say something but decided against it.

His mother was right. It would be rude to send Cherish back home right after her arrival.

"Forget it," Carlos said as he waved his hand and went back to his room. Leah went back to Cherish and took her hand.

"Ignore him, dear. He's just being stubborn." After Carlos left, Leah immediately comforted Cherish.

She knew what Cherish was thinking. A woman's mind could be fragile because of a man.

Cherish simply nodded. Leah could not help feeling sorry for her.

It was a good thing that she was there when Carlos walked in. She could only imagine how Cherish and Carlos' encounter would have played out in her absence.

"So what do you think of the house? Do you like it?" Feeling the change in Cherish's mood, Leah quickly changed the subject.

Cherish looked around. She decided that she was not in the mood to care about anything else. As long as she could stay with Carlos, she was satisfied. "I like it very much, Auntie," she said with a smile.

"Oh, good. Come, I'll show you to your room," Leah said happily, patting Cherish's hand.

"All right. Thank you, Auntie." Leah then led Cherish to her room.

Cherish got up early the next day. She spent last night searching for recipes online. She wanted to make something special for Carlos.

She made her way to the kitchen and found the chefs and servants preparing breakfast. Seeing her come in, they all greeted her.
