Chapter 2714
Stanley dared not look back, as he had caught a glimpse of how depressed Tia looked when he was on his way out. All it would take was a second of hesitation, and Stanley might change his mind and stay back.
'Let it be. Perhaps Cherry could help me out. If Tia cries for me, I will do my best to create a future for the both of us. But if she doesn’t, I could only give her my blessings and leave her,' he concluded.
After Stanley had vanished from the doorway, June and Lulu's whispering became even louder.
"Why is Cherry so rude?" Lulu asked.
"She looked alright the last time we saw her, though.
Sheesh, I guess you can never judge a book by its cover," June said with a hint of disapproval.
"Perhaps they're in their honeymoon phase. People tend to act differently when they're in that phase, you know," Nicole stated calmly, though her gaze went to tell June and Lulu to quit it with the topic.
Fortunately, the duo picked up on Nicole's signal almost instantly, and proceeded to change the subject in a jiffy.
Judging by how Tia looked, it was best if they did not add fuel to the fire.
"I'm done," Tia stood up, trying to sound calm and composed.
"Are you sure you don't want to have some more?" Gloria asked. "You've been eating very little today."
Tia looked at Gloria and replied, "No thanks. My stomach is full already."
"Alright then," Gloria said, not wanting to push Tia.
Tia did not leave right away once she was done, as she had to wait for Mrs. Wallace Sr. While she remained seated, Tia could not stop thinking about how Cherry sounded in that phone call with Stanley. Sharing June and Lulu's opinion on the matter, Tia was in disbelief that Cherry had turned out to be so pushy and abrasive. Tia was even starting to think that Cherry might have put on a mask before she got together with Stanley.
The very idea caused her face to blanch as she gritted her teeth. 'If that's the case, will Stanley really be happy in the future?'
