Chapter 706 Soren Did This?
After her results were revealed, she wept uncontrollably, fearing for her sister’s safety and feeling helpless. However, Damien remained unmoved, glancing at Rowena indifferently before turning to Cherise. “Can you please take a look?”
Furrowing her brows, Cherise walked slowly to the table where a half-filled gla*s of water sat. Ursula, furious, exclaimed, “My sister is too trusting! Look at this gla*s of water. It has particles of medicine floating in it!”
Cherise picked up the gla*s, held it against the light, and scrutinized it. Indeed, there were tiny white. medicine particles floating in it. Rowena should not have overlooked such blatant evidence that her drink had been tampered with.
Pursing her l*ps, Rowena turned to Frances and asked, “Frances, did you do this?”
“I… I didn’t!” Frances fell to her knees in fear. “Actually… Soren… handed me this gla*s of water.”
“He said that… that it was careless of me not to serve water to the guests at home, so he poured the water and asked me to bring it up…”
The veins on Cherise’s forehead twitched violently. Soren… did this?
Cherise left the guest room and opened the door to Soren and Serafina’s room.
At that moment, Soren and Serafina were lying on either side of Elvis, listening to him tell them a story.
Upon seeing Cherise enter, Soren looked up at her guiltily. “Mom… Mommy, why are you here?” Cherise instantly knew from his guilty demeanor that he had done it.
Although the boy was as clever and mature as his dad, he still inherited some of Cherise’s traits, such as not being able to lie convincingly.
Composing herself, Cherise looked at Soren with anger and frustration. “You better come here and explain what you put in the water you gave Frances before I lose my temper.”
Elvis, basking in the admiration of the two children, frowned slightly. “Cherise, why are you so angry?” He
looked up at Cherise, somewhat a “Soren is so well-behaved that he noticed Frances hadn’t served
the guests any drinks. He specifically went downstairs to pour water for them. Your son is so considerate. You shouldn’t speak to him in such a tone. What if you frighten him?”
Elvis’s words made Cherise sigh in exasperation. She restrained herself from revealing the truth behind Soren’s hospitable’ act for Rowena.
After all, as a mother, she also hoped that others would have a positive impression of her son. Therefore, she took a deep breath, smiled at Soren, and spoke gently, “Come here. I have something to discuss with
you.”
Realizing that the truth was about to be revealed, Soren shrank back. He carefully got up from Elvis’ side and followed Cherise to the corridor, feeling aggrieved.
When they were in the corridor, Cherise pulled Soren into the study room and slammed the door shut with a bang. “Tell me. What did you put in the water?”
