“No,” she said with a somewhat weary look, lowering her head. “I don’t know why, but today I feel unusually tired, so I decided to come back early to get some rest.”

Damien inquired, “What about your place of stay?”

He settled into a more comfortable position on the balcony, watching her petite form near the wall. “Is staying in the grand villa more comfortable than at home?”

Cherise responded, telling a little white lie to spare him any worry, “It’s about the same. It’s quite spacious here, and everyone has been kind to me.”

Changing the subject, she asked, “Are you done with your work?”

“Yeah, I just saw Lenn off.”

“Lenn?” Cherise furrowed her brow. “He came to our place?”

“Yes, but he had left because he got distracted by a woman.”

The man chuckled softly, remembering the anger that washed over Lennon’s face when he saw Rodney attempting to tamper with Lucy’s drink while Lennon was keeping a close watch with binoculars. It had been twelve years since Damien had seen Lennon that. incensed.

“Hmph! A real playboy!” Cherise pursed her lips. “Thank goodness Lulu didn’t end up with him!”

Cherise’s anger flared each time she thought about it. “I used to think he was a good guy!”

“Look at him now! If it weren’t for his rejection, Lulu wouldn’t have to date that hideous Rodney!”

Thinking about Rodney’s unfair comment in the afternoon, her anger surged even more.

Damien sighed but was about to say something when he detected a suspicious figure lurking in the dark.

He was on the third floor, while Cherise stayed in a single-story house. From his elevated. position, he could clearly observe a woman in sportswear and a cap holding something resembling a water bucket, discreetly sprinkling it around the rundown house.

Damien furrowed, and his voice turned inexplicably profound. “Are you the only one there right now?”

Cherise bit her lip. “There’s also Mandy; she twisted her ankle…”

Just as she finished speaking, Damien saw the woman behind Cherise’s house retrieve a small object from her pocket.
