Cherise opened her eyes and met Heather's inquisitive gaze. Heather seemed to be silently asking, "Are you okay?"
Cherise responded reassuringly and smiled at Heather, calming her anxious heart.
Ever since Cherise arrived at the institute, Heather had been worried about her. Although she knew Cherise had Damien's protection, she was concerned that Damien wouldn't be able to arrive on time if Mr. Whitlock were to bully Cherise.
As Cherise's friend, Heather felt responsible for ensuring Cherise's safety. Now that Cherise confirmed she was okay, Heather felt relieved.
Meanwhile, Mr. Whitlock stood behind Heather. His eyes lit up as he looked at the steaming cup of tea.
Suddenly, he grabbed the cup and hurled it towards Heather.
Heather was focused on Cherise and was unaware of the danger behind her. On the other hand, Cherise saw Mr. Whitlock splashing the tea and wanted to pull Heather away. Unfortunately, it was too late.
Heather screamed. Her face instantly turned red from the scalding tea.
Mr. Whitlock smashed the cup on the floor, shouting, "Heather, did you come here to spy on me? Are you afraid I won't slander Dr. Shaw as you wish, so you came in to check on me!?"
Heather's body trembled violently from being scalded by the hot tea. She swayed unsteadily and fell backward. Cherise caught her immediately. "Heather, are you okay?"
Heather was in so much pain that she couldn't speak for a while. She stuttered before managing to say two words, "It hurts!"
