Chapter 21-30
Marrying the Man in the Dark Chapter 21-Breakfast Isnât Ruined âAfter all, ordinary people wonât devise a plan to make their âniece, which they brought up for two decades, marry a stranger to save their mother.â Elvisâ face paled slightly. âI didnât have any other way.â âCherise just has bad luck.â He looked at Damien and wanted to say something but stopped.
After a long time, he sighed. âMr. Lenoir, Cherise is a great girl. I hope you can treat her well.â âEven if you donât like her⊠Donât hurt her too much if you donât want her in the future.â Elvis spoke meekly.

The door was light and made of alloy, but it seemed to weigh a thousand pounds then. Cherise couldnât open the door.

You made Cherise pay the price by getting married.â âOtherwise, it isnât worth it.â Elvisâ hands were clenched into fists at his sides.
Cheriseâs hands were tightly clenched at the stairwell as she carried the food.
