Chapter 72
The next day. Xenia asked Cherise to help her modify some outs for the anime convention.
After her morning exercise, Cherise had a quick breakfast, changed clothes, and headed out to find Xenia at her studio.
Xenia was a well–known anime designer from Clusia. This time, the world’s most high–profile anime convention was coming to Clusia, and she was eager to showcase her latest work there.
From her designs to her hairstyle and clothes, everything was carefully prepared. The outfit she was going to wear to the convention was personally designed and crafted by Cherise.
Lately. Xenia had been slack with her diet, causing her waistline to grow a bit.
Last night, when she tried on her outfit, it was so tight she could hardly breathe. In a rush, she called Cherise to come over today to make adjustments.
As soon as Cherise stepped out, she ran into Morris from 2602 just as he was heading out. She greeted him, “Hello, Mr. Chivers!”
Morris felt great seeing Cherise so early in the morning. “Hey, Cherise, where are you going so early?”
“Got some things to do. I’m meeting Xenia at her studio.” Cherise replied honestly.
Hearing that she was going to Xenia’s studio, Morris breathed a sigh of relief. But then he thought of the party Xenia hosted last time and frowned slightly.
However, it was her choice who she hung out with, and he was not really in a position to stop her.
When they got to the parking lot, Steven was already waiting in the car for Morris.
Suddenly, Morris said, “Hey, Cherise, I need to make a trip to Fresburg and won’t be back until tomorrow night at the earliest. If you need me, send me a message on WhatsApp.”
Cherise nodded and said, “Okay, goodbye,” to Morris, then drove off.
Once Cherise left, Morris said to Steven in the front, “While I’m abroad, tell Hugh to keep an eye on Ms. Leach discreetly and stay alert.”
Last time, right after they left, she was almost attacked by Layla Luckily, Andy showed up just in time, or the defenseless Cherise might have been stabbed by Layla’s dagger.
The thought of it still gave Morris chills, and he wondered, ‘Why would I have done if something had happened to her? The Panamera cruised down the highway. It was rush hour, with heavy traffic and occasional minor accidents on the read.
But Cherise was a skilled driver, maneuvering smoothly without rushing
Suddenly, a cold glint appeared in Cherise’s eyes. Through the rearview mirror, she iw a black modified sedan closely following her.
“Good‘ Cherise is curled into a chilling, murderous sinile.
In the next second, she floored the gas pedal, weaving through the traffic like a snake
Sering this, the black sedan behind also accelerated, chasing after Cherise’s Panamera
However, Cherise was driving so fast. With a sharp turn, she left he black sedan far behind.

The black sedan pulled over, turning on its hazard lights. A man dialed a number. “Sir, Ms. Leach’s car was too fast, and her. I’ll report to the base for punishment when you return.”
Meanwhile, Cherise had completely shaken off the black sedan.
She immediately called Crow, “Check who owns the car with the license plate JFK001 that crossed the seventh traffic ton Serenity Road,”
Three seconds later. “I found it, and it belongs to the Dark Web Division. Boss, what’s going on?” Crow asked on the other end, looking puzzled.
Confusion flickered in Cherise’s eyes as well. She thought, ‘How can it be from the Dark Web Division?”
The Dark Web Division was an important department that provided security for the social stability of Clusia. It had trained an elite team, and each member was highly skilled.
Moreover, its leader was very mysterious, known for swift and decisive actions.
“How could this be possible?” Cherise murmured in disbelief.
“Boss, what’s happening? How did this car from the Dark Web Division turn up?” Crow asked again.
Cherise spoke calmly, “It’s nothing, just got followed by this car.
“What? Followed by a car from the Dark Web Division?” Grow exclaimed in surprise.
Cherise thought for a moment and then said, “Since we know where it’s from, they probably mean no harm. Just ask them
next time. Let’s not talk about it now, and I’ve got things to do.” Then she hung up the phone.
On the other end of the line, Crow said, “Oh come on, you always hang up before I finish talking
