Chapter 486 Country Food
After ending the call, Cherise quickly changed her clothes, freshened up, and appeared before Zachary with a smile. “So, where are we going to cat today?”
Zachary shrugged. “Aunt Charisa suddenly had a craving for something organic, so we’re heading to the countryside for some home-style food.”
“Eating country food?” Cherise was surprised. She had spent eighteen out of the past nineteen years. eating country food, as she had stayed in the countryside. While she enjoyed it, the idea of Charisa, an elegant woman, going for country food felt unexpected. Besides, Cherise was sure rustic bread would not be Charisa’s first choice, given her usual refined palate.
“Can’t we reconsider this? I’m fine with whatever; there’s no need to…”
“The place has already been reserved,” Zachary interrupted before she could finish her sentence, opening the car door as he spoke. “Let’s go.”.
“Alright.” Cherise rolled her eyes and got into the car.
Zachary glanced at her, surprised that despite her troubles, Cherise still considered others’ feelings.
Zachary drove Cherise to a small village a good distance from Adania. As Cherise sat in the pa*senger seat, the surroundings felt familiar. When they finally reached their destination, she realized this country
food spot was none other than Clover Gardens, the place Damien had purchased when Mandy still had her chip intact. It brought back the memory of the day when they had lunch here after returning from the Tanners, an unforgettable day due to the amount of alcohol they consumed.
As they approached the entrance, she couldn’t believe how the place had transformed into a farmhouse-style restaurant. What surprised her was that Charisa had coincidentally selected this spot for their meal.
“This way, to our table.” Zachary guided her to a room on the east side.
The room was decorated in a rustic farmhouse style, with many decorative elements reminiscent of those at Cherise’s aunt’s home.
Once seated, Zachary stood up. “I’ll go and get Aunt Charisa, they haven’t arrived yet.”
“Sure, I’ll ch*ck out the menu while you’re gone,” Cherise replied while scanning the menu.
After Zachary left, the door swung open, revealing a slim teenager of about sixteen or seventeen holding a notebook. “Ready to order, Miss?”
The boy’s voice immediately caught Cherise’s attention. She gripped the menu tightly in her hand. lifting her head quickly
“Sky” she blurted out
In front of her stood Sky Shaw, the eldest son of Elvis and Sarah whom she hadn’t seen a long time
“Cherry?”

Seeing Cherise, Sky was thrilled. “How did you end up here?”
Cherise was elated and stood up, embracing Sky. “It’s been ages since we met! What brings you here? Where’s Aunt Sarah?”
Sky eagerly explained, “My mom started this farmhouse restaurant! Tay and I are helping out during the summer break!”
The young lad beamed with excitement as he continued, “Cherry, how did you find your way here? Did you come all the way to visit us knowing this is our place?”
“…” Cherise bit her l*p, “Someone invited me for a meal here.”
She took a deep breath before she added, “Aunt Sarah didn’t tell me where you were, so I had no idea. If it weren’t for this invitation…” She wouldn’t have known that her aunt had opened a restaurant.
