Chapter 716 Where Are You Off To?

“Good heavens! Is he going to declare his love?”

“How utterly romantic!”

Cherise was dumbstruck. When she said she liked his roses in the afternoon, she merely

acknowledged the roses he had previously gifted her

Could this man possibly be….

“Look! I see something! The entire street to the research institute is filled with trucks delivering roses!”

“Goodness me, it’s true! All the city’s roses are heading to our institute!”

Cherise was flabbergasted. He’s here already?!…Can I play dead?

“Wow! I’m not seeing things. That lengthy procession is heading towards our institute!”

“Good heavens. Is someone proposing at the institute? This is so lavish and romantic!”

“Goodness, I must capture this moment and share it online…”

When Cherise emerged from the restroom, people lined the corridors as they stood by the windows.

Her female colleagues sighed with envy, while her male colleagues observed with detached interest.

Cherise wanted to disappear into thin air. It was only her first day at work, and she already left such a

favorable impression on her colleagues. How am I supposed to face everyone in the future?!

She initially wanted to slip out the back door and head there with her belongings. But by a stroke of

luck, she encountered her supervisor, Mr. Whitlock, who greeted her with a warm smile. “Cherise.”

Others might have been oblivious to the roses outside, but not Mr. Whitlock! Damien made a grand

gesture on Cherise’s first day at the research institute. It sufficed to show that… she held a special

place in his heart! Therefore, how could Mr. Whitlock let Cherise slip out the back door unnoticed?

“Cherise, what brings you here? Where are you off to?”

Cherise bit her lip and pretended to be unaware of who the roses outside were for. She turned around

awkwardly and lied. “I noticed it was quite hectic outside. It’s nearly time to clock out, and the main

entrance must be congested, so I thought I’d exit through the back door…”

“Cherise. Mr. Whitlock looked at Cherise warmly. “Why don’t you join your colleagues and witness the

significant event unfolding outside?”

He spoke gently and kindly, but it made Cherise’s legs go weak. Her smile was somewhat strained. “Td

rather not… partake in this commotion.”

“But Cherise,” Mr. Whitlock continued, smiling gently. “It’s not advisable to stand out on your first day at

work. You see, your colleagues are all quite intrigued by what’s happening, but you seem indifferent.

You’re even attempting to sneak out the back door. Aren’t you being too conspicuous?”

Cherise was dumbstruck. Isn’t it normal for a newcomer like me to be conspicuous?

But she didn’t dare voice her thoughts and defended herself with a forced smile. “Mr. Whitlock, it’s not

that I’m uninterested in witnessing such a grand spectacle, but… I really have some matters to attend

to at home…”

“But you mentioned in the afternoon that you’re free tonight and available for dinner anytime.”

Cherise was dumbstruck. Alright, I did say that.

But she was merely trying to bridge the gap with her colleagues when she uttered those words. Now

that Mr. Whitlock had brought it up… She could only chuckle awkwardly. “It was inappropriate of me to

want to exit through the back door.”

She took a deep breath and gazed resolutely at the bustling main entrance in the distance. “I’ll head

there now, Mr. Whitlock.”

She could only imagine her future at the institute….
