Chapter 489 Death Is Inevitable

The early autumn weather brought a chill to the air. Charisa wore a slim-fit, moon-white dress adorned with embroidered flowers. Her hair cascaded elegantly, and her whole demeanor exuded a proud and aloof temperament.

Despite her usual cold and distant expression, she was willing to accommodate Cherise’s wish to keep. the surname she had grown up with.

“Let’s head in for dinner!” Elvis called out, taking Sarah’s hand and leading the way to the dining room. “Is the meal ready?”

Embarrassed, Sarah shook her head. “Not yet… I noticed Sky was taking Cherise’s order, so I hurried out without preparing anything.

“Come on, I’ll help you. Where’s the kitchen?” Elvis took the lead and swiftly led Sarah to the kitchen.

Outside, Charisa stood at the door. Meanwhile, Cherise was by the dining room entrance, and Zachary stood next to Cherise.

“Shall we, ladies?” Zachary quipped, playfully opening the door. “Why don’t we head inside? The sun is quite strong; I wouldn’t want anyone getting tanned, especially someone who will be a bride in a few days!”

Cherise blushed and turned away.

Just before entering the dining room, Cherise paused, remembering something. She turned back, offering a slight smile to Charisa. “Mom, come in.”

A glimmer of warmth flashed in Charisa’s typically serene eyes. Without a word, she calmly walked through the doorway and followed Cherise into the room.

The dining room carried a traditional, rustic charm. Sarah was an industrious woman. Apart from the existing furnishings, the room was decorated with many handmade pieces, like cross-stitch and embroidered flowers.

Seated, Charisa surveyed the room with a composed gaze. “Did you live in a place like this?”

Cherise, momentarily caught off guard, nodded quickly. “Yes. It wasn’t as well-maintained as it is now, but the setting is quite similar.”

“It must have been tough for you.” Charisa looked at her, speaking with a poised tone.

Cherise was surprised. “No, not at all!”

“I enjoyed living in the countryside with its fresh air and scenic landscape. Growing vegetables and being self-reliant… It was quite delightful.”

“Is that so?” Charisa raised her teacup, taking a sip. “Before I pass on, I should spend some time in the countryside.”

“Aunt Charisa!” Zachary frowned, interjecting sternly. “What are you talking about? Cherry might get the wrong idea if you keep talking about such things.”

Charisa was slightly taken aback, turning to smile faintly at Zachary, “You’re right. Let’s not discuss such matters at the table.” She glanced at Cherise. “And what did you just call me?”

Cherise hesitated before speaking, “I called you… Mom.” She looked a bit pale, staring at Charisa. “What did you mean by what you said earlier?”

“It was just a passing thought.” Charisa calmly placed down her teacup. “I was just contemplating the idea of passing away in a serene place, should the opportunity arise.”

She smiled at Cherise. “After all, death is inevitable, isn’t it?”
