Chapter 2659
"They’re used to Tia bringing them to school, so there's no doubt they're dependent on her." Martin smiled and
approached Tia's bedside. "How are you feeling?"
"I feel much better now. I could be discharged tomorrow," Tia replied.
"May I ask who this is?" Cherry found Martin familiar, but she just could not recognize him.
"His name is Martin, and he's in the medical profession," Tia introduced. She did not mention Martin's background
as he did not like to brag about it outside.
"Her name is Cherry, Stanley's..." Tia paused and changed what she was going to say. "She's Stanley's friend."
Tia originally wanted to say Cherry was Stanley's girlfriend, but Tia did not know if Stanley wanted to make the

"Hi." Cherry instantly remembered when she heard Martin's name, but she played along and did not expose his
hidden identity.
"Hi there," Martin responded, looking at Stanley meaningfully.
Noticing Tia's pause, Martin analyzed that even if Cherry were not Stanley's girlfriend, Cherry would not be Stanley's
normal colleague either. It was the first time Martin saw a girl together with Stanley.
Martin had no interest in identifying the relationship between Stanley and Cherry. He was just curious since Stanley
used to take good care of Tia. Martin wondered if it was just pure concern for Tia.
Cherry was also silently eyeing Martin. 'Tia called him by his name. What relationship do they have? Tia seemed to
give him special treatment and called his name.'
"Ms. Jean, thank you so much for visiting me. Actually, I feel all better now," Tia thanked.
Snapping back to reality, Cherry chuckled. "Don't sweat it. We're friends after all." She then placed a fruit basket on
Tia’s bedside. "Here you go, a little something for you."
"Thank you."
"One more thank you, and we're not friends anymore," said Cherry, acting angry.
Tia replied uneasily, "That's not what I meant, Ms. Jean."
"Oh, come on. Stop calling me Ms. Jean, call me Cherry instead." Cherry laughed. "That's what my friends call me."
Nicole saw through Cherry's every move and she kind of liked her personality.
"Well, this..." Tia trailed off. 'If Cherry turned out to be Stanley's girlfriend, it wouldn't be right for me to call her by
her name directly.'

"Why the hesitation? Do you not like me?" Cherry asked seriously. If so, she would not force Tia to be friends.
"Oh, that's not it. I just thought since you're Sir Stanley’s friend, I should-"
Before Tia could finish, Cherry interrupted, "Come on. If this is the reason, you don't have to worry about it. Not to
mention, someone hates it when you call him that, more so than me."
"Huh?" Tia did not understand Cherry's underlying meaning and looked at her in confusion.
Stanley, on the other hand, understood instantly and stopped Cherry. "It's about time. I'll see you out."
"You're taking care of her tonight?" Cherry teased meaningfully, raising her eyebrow.
"Ms. Jean, don't get him wrong. Sir Stanley isn't-”
Knowing Tia was going to explain, Stanley interrupted, "Yes, I'm staying back tonight."
Cherry said complacently, with her eyebrow raised. "Then I won't bother you guys further."
Bidding farewell to everyone, Cherry gladly started to leave. She called out to Stanley, "Well, I'll be troubling you to
see me out then."
"No problem. Come on," Stanley said. Then he left with Cherry.
