Chapter 191 Karma
Elvis exchanged a glance with his wife, Sarah, and they quickly helped Vivian to her feet.
“Don’t worry about it. We’re neighbors, after all. Let’s get along with each other!”
Amidst Vivian’s heartfelt apologies, Cherise couldn’t help but let out a heavy sigh. “Knowing that this was bound to happen, why did you start this in the first place?”
I’m not as forgiving as Aunt Sarah or Uncle Elvis. Vivian insulted my husband-I will never forgive her for that.
Tears streamed down Vivian’s cheeks as she pleaded, “My husband is behind bars now. I need money to get him out of there…”
“He deserves it! If you keep going down this path, you might end up there too!” Cherise retorted.
With that, Cherise helped Damien to his feet. “Dear, let’s go feed Plumkin outside.”
“Sure,” he replied with a smile.
Finally, when both of them were out of sight, Sarah helped Vivian up from the ground. “Cherry has her reasons for not being able to forgive you. You’d better get a divorce and start a new life.”
The next day, the village held a meeting. Eventually, they took Damien’s suggestion and. nominated Jack as the next village chief.
With a bewildered expression, Jack held Damien’s hand and thanked him profusely before. discussing the future plans for the village together with him.
Damien smiled. “The only reason I backed you up is in hopes that you will watch over Elvis’ family and stop the villagers from bullying them any longer.”
Jack froze for a moment before swiftly nodding his head. “Of course! I’ll treat your uncle as my own in the future!”
Because of this, the rest of the villagers greeted Elvis and his family with a wide smile over the next few days.
All of a sudden, Elvis, who had never been popular, found himself at the center of attention in the village; he received dozens of visitors every day.

“You’re really something, dear,” Cherise sighed in admiration while nestled in Damien’s arms. They were on their way back after their vacation had ended. “No one liked the previous chief, but they dared not speak up. I’m sure Jack will make an excellent leader. You have such a good eye!”
Damien flashed a small smile before pinching her cheeks adoringly. “Of course I do. Just look at who my wife is!”
Cherise blushed shyly and started using her phone as a distraction.
‘Are you back, Cherry?’
‘Call me as soon as you’re back. I’ve something to tell you!”
All of a sudden, she received two texts from Ian.
Cherise’s village was quite far from Adania. Despite starting their journey back early, it was already three in the afternoon when they arrived in the city.
Blake complained about the tiring journey and went back to his room immediately.
Meanwhile, Mr. Hampson summarized a list of work items for Damien to review.
Cherise stretched her body lazily and returned to her room to rest after letting Elvis and Sarah know they arrived safely.
Around four in the afternoon, Ian’s call interrupted her nap.

🌸 Message to the Author: 🌸 Hi! I just finished reading your story, and I truly loved it — especially Damien and Cherise’s journey. But what completely stole my heart was Lennon and Lucy. Their final scene left me stunned… Lennon being alive, quietly showing up after all that time — it was such a powerful and emotional moment. But it also left me with so many feelings… What happened to him? How did Lucy react after the shock wore off? What did they say to each other? I keep thinking about them. I know they’re side characters, and the story is marked as completed, but I would truly love a bonus chapter — even a small one — to see what came next for them. They deserve that closure. And honestly? So do we, as readers who deeply connected with them. And we would also love to see more of Damien and cherise with their kids. Thank you for creating characters that live so deeply in our hearts. If you ever feel inspired, please consider giving Lennon and Lucy a little more. ❤️...
