Chapter 149
Cherise arrived at Betrico University after 10 AM. Since she did have any classes that morning, she just went back to take
care of some matters.
As soon as she got to the office. Zander knocked and came in “Ms. Leach, I stitched up that person’s heel last night”
Hearing this, Cherise replied, “You tried many times, right?”
Zander chuckled awkwardly. “I removed the stitches less than 10 times before I finished it. Crow said I did well.”
Cherise nodded. “Practice makes perfect. You can go back now, and tell Madeline to come here.
Zander hesitated for a moment, then simply replied, “Okay.” Then, he left the office.
Left alone in the office, Cherise dialed Liam’s number.
The call was quickly answered, “Hey, Cherise, what’s up? Did something happen to Dora
Cherise replied calmly, “No. It’s nothing like that. You guys need to solve the problems of your relationship yourselves. I’m not in a position to say anything to either of you.”
Liam sounded a little disappointed when he heard this. “Oh, alright then.”
“I’m willing to be the judge for Friday’s piano selection competition, Cherise replied.
“Really? Are you sure?” Liam was immediately more excited.
As Cherise heard someone knocking at the door, probably Madeline, she quickly said, “Yeah, sure. That’s it. I’m busy,”
With that, she hung up, leaving Liam on the other end confused.
“Come in, Cherise said to the person knocking outside,
The door opened and Madeline walked in. “Ms. Leach, I heard from Zander that you were looking for me.”
“Yes, that’s right, Cherise said as she took a sheet of music out of her bag and handed it to Madeline.
Madeline took the music sheet and glanced at it. “What’s this? The Dream, a piano piece? For me?”
Cherise nodded. “Yes, for you. You can practice it well. The techniques and methods are all noted. It might help you with the piano competition.”
Madeline felt like she had found a treasure. She hadn’t yet decided which piece to play in the competition, and Ms. Leach surprised her with the piano piece.
Although Madeline didn’t know how Cherise got the piano sheet music, she just trusted her for some reason. Madeline quickly said, “Thank you, Ms. Leach. I won’t let you down. I’ll give my best in the competition. Thank you.”
Cherise nodded with satisfaction. “Alright. There are two days left, so go practice.”
Bursting with joy, Madeline grabbed the sheet music and ran to the piano room.
As soon as she left. Cherise picked up her phone and called Crow
At this moment, Crow had just finished applying for a workshop worker position at the Lewis Chemical Plant in the suburbs.
His once blond hair was now a dull brown one, messy and unkempt. A large black mole appeared on his left cheek, with a

few hairs growing out of it incredibly lifelike.
His clothes looked as if they were picked up from a thrift store, extremely faded. His shoes were also worn–out, yellowed white canvas shoes with serious signs of peeling.
He walked with a swagger, looking just like a down–on–his–luck youth from the slums.
Feeling a slight tremor of the phone, Crow cautiously moved to deserted corner. He touched the mole on his face and spoke in a low voice, “Boss”
“What’s the situation?” Cherise’s voice came through the tiny carpiece in his ear.

Crow lowered his voice again. “Everything’s fine. I just got hired as a packer in the workshop. Meals and accommodation are included, 8 dollars an hour, from 7 am to 11 pm.
Hearing this, Cherise’s mouth twitched. “Alright. Infiltrate as soon as possible. Contact me immediately if anything happens.” “Don’t worry.” Crow ended the call and touched the black mole on his face before heading into the chemical plant.
Last night, after Cherise found out about Felix’s illegal operations, she sent Crow to sneak into his chemical plant to gather
information.
At the same time, the logistics manager, Ivor, shouted in the logistics cleaning department of Lewis Chemical Plant, “Next”
A woman with a rough look stepped forward. “Hello, I’m here to apply for a cleaning job.” She shyly tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and blinked at Ivor..
Ivor noticed her tanned skin and appealing figure. Apart from being a bit sturdy and wearing a turtleneck in hot weather, she was impeccable.
His eyes instantly brightened. “Miss, what’s your name, and do you bring your ID?”
“Hello, sir. My name is Leona, and here’s my ID,” Leona said bashfully.
Ivor glanced at Leona’s ID, seeing she was only 25, and then gave a sly grin, “Alright. Leona. What a nice name. You’re hired. Go inside to report.
Thank you, sir. You’re so kind; I won’t forget you, she said as she ran into the factory.
Once inside, Leona casually brushed back her long hair and lightly touched an earring, her movements graceful and charming.
The next moment, every scene and action in the factory was transmitted to a large screen in front of Morris.
