Chapter 522 Five Years Later
Cherise cast a final glance at the airport entrance, but it was empty, with no signs of anyone coming in.
She exhaled a long sigh and smiled bitterly.
Just like her, Damien had ultimately chosen his family.
Perhaps it was for the best. Even if they had chosen each other and forsaken their families, they might not be happy.
Such an outcome might be desirable after all.
Cherise took one last look at Adania, a place brimming with beautiful memories, before following Zachary into the security checkpoint gate.
The figure of the young lady gradually diminished in the direction of the security entrance.
Behind a distant pillar, a man gently closed his eyes and clenched his hands.
A month later, Peter Lenoir’s funeral was held in Adania. Damien officially a*sumed the role of the CEO of the Lenoir Group, becoming the sole heir of the Lenoir family.
Two months later, Charisa pa*sed away. Zachary and Cherise announced their engagement, and Zachary became the new head of the Miles family.
Ten months later, Cherise and Zachary called off their engagement. Thereafter, Cherise vanished, and her whereabouts remained unknown.
Five years later.
“Good morning, teacher!”
A new batch of medical students sat in a pristine and orderly university lecture hall, attentively. listening to the lecture.
The woman standing on the podium was slender and tall, dressed in slim-fit black pants and a loose white T-shirt. Her hair was casually tied into a high ponytail, and large silver-framed gla*ses on her face. She wore a pair of large silver-framed gla*ses, exuding a professional and elegant
aura.
Her voice was gentle as she elucidated the significance of cardiothoracic surgery study to these freshmen in a comprehensible manner.
Due to her beauty and elegant teaching style, no students were distracted throughout the cla*s.

A wave of applause erupted in the hall when the cla*s was over.
“Have you heard? Miss Shaw is a renowned expert in cardiothoracic surgery!”
“And Miss Shaw never performs heart surgeries but only engages in academic research and teaching!”
“Really? Why?”
“I heard that Miss Shaw’s hand was severely injured before, so she can’t perform surgeries that require high precision.”
“Really… what a pity…”.
While the students were discussing, Cherise packed her things with a smile and exited the
cla*sroom.
As soon as she stepped out of the cla*sroom, her phone rang.
“Cherise, the Central Hospital just transferred a critically ill patient here. Her husband specifically requested your guidance for her surgery. When can you come over?”
The woman’s delicate eyebrows furrowed deeply, and she pivoted and headed towards the campus exit. “Can you briefly describe the patient’s condition to me? I’m on my way.”
“Sure”
The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone explained solemnly. “This female patient. suffered severe physical and mental trauma more than a decade ago, leaving her with residual effects.
“She got married two years ago, and her husband treats her very well. Eight months ago, she became pregnant. The doctor warned her repeatedly that her heart condition made it risky for her to give birth, and it could easily result in the death of both mother and child.”
“Even in the best scenario, the infant’s life might be secured but not the mother’s. But this woman. resolutely chose to give birth to this child, regardless of the advice of the doctor and her husband.”
