Chapter 711-720
Marrying the Man in the Dark Chapter 711-Sheâs Almost Like Family Why did Rowena suddenly say her clothes were dirty? She most likely retreated to the bathroom downstairs⌠and didnât have the time.
âMr. Lensir?â Frances spoke tentatively when she heard silence on the other end.
Damien coughed lightly and instinctively understood the situation. Just provide them with a clean set of servantâs attire.â âButâŚ.
âIf they continue causing a scene, inform them youâve consulted Cherise. Tell them Cherise wanted to personally bring them a new outfit, but you declined because you didnât want them to be embarrassed. If they insist on Cheriseâs help, you can tell Cherise to go down.â On the other end, Frances was perplexed but nodded earnestly. âAlright, Mr. Lenoir. Iâll do as you say.â When the call ended, Cherise and Damien looked at each other. After a moment, they both abruptly burst into laughter simultaneously.
âAre you happy now?â The man reached out and pulled Cherise into his embrace. âYouâre a scoundrel.â âAm I?â Cherise pouted. She lay in his arms and said coyly. âIâm much better compared to your savior, who pretended to be unconscious after consuming a laxative.â Damien nodded, gently kissing her cheek. âIndeed.â The man couldnât help but sigh. âRowena wasnât always. like this. She used to reprimand Ursula sternly whenever her sister caused trouble. I had complete faith in her.â âI must bear responsibility for her sudden transformation. I treated her too nicely, and sheâs forgotten her place.â Cheriseâs interest was piqued. She looked up, her clear eyes observing Damien quietly. âSo tell me, who is she?â âA friend.â Damien didnât hesitate. âPerhaps even closer than a friend. Sheâs almost like family.â The man looked at Cherise earnestly. âIf Rowena hadnât intervened three years ago⌠I might have long vanished from this world.â As he spoke, he reached out to caress Cheriseâs face. âWithout her, you might not have me in your life now.â Cheriseâs expression changed slightly when he mentioned the fire three years ago. She could still vividly remember the massive fire three years ago.
She could still recall the sweltering heat in the room, the pungent smell permeating the air, and⌠his unconscious face from that day. But even in his unconscious state, he still clung tightly to the small box containing their engagement rings.
The scene that day had shocked Cherise. Unfortunately, she had sustained burns to her hand and had to be evacuated immediately.
