Chapter 921-930
Marrying the Man in the Dark Chapter 921-Temporary Amnesia As she spoke, she looked at Damien patiently. âCalm down. There may be other ulterior motives behind this.â Damien looked at her for a while before turning around silently. He looked straight at Blake. âSince youâve already determined that I wanted to harm you why did you return to Lenoir Manor and come back to me after you went through so much trouble to rescue Cherise?â Blake pursed his lips. His fists repeatedly clenched and unclenched at his sides. Finally, he took a deep breath and looked up at Damien seriously, âIt was Cherry. I suggested to her to contact the Tanner or Miles families because I felt it would be unwise to stay here for long.â âBut Cherry still trusts you, so she pleaded with me to bring her back to Lenoir Manor no matter how difficult it is.â The boyâs words pained Damien. He pursed his lips and looked at Blake. âSo, what happened afterâŚâ âOn the way back, Cherry got caught in the rain and fainted⌠She was like this when she regained consciousness.â Blake gazed at Cherise, slightly distressed. âI know it was risky for me to return with Cherry, but the last thing she said to me before this happened was to bring her back to look for you⌠She wanted to hear you say in person that you wanted her to die and that you believe she slept with SebastianâŚâ âI would never wish for her to die.â Damien closed his eyes. âNor would I ever believe she slept with Sebastian.â The man took a deep breath and reached out, wanting to hold Cheriseâs hand. âNo one knows her better than I do.â But she looked at him as if he were a stranger and withdrew her hand. The man closed his eyes and instructed Mr. Hampson hoarsely. âSummon Jacob.â Half an hour later, Jacob sat on the sofa, observing the woman lying on her stomach behind Blake in the corner of the couch. He carefully sized her up and sighed indifferently. âDamien, donât be too hasty, Cherryâs reaction is typical of someone who has been hurt.â âAs Blake mentioned, perhaps she also believes you want to kill her, so sheâs overwhelmed with grief and wearied from the trip back. These emotions and symptoms are intertwined, which causes the brain to have selective amnesia.â âBut based on Cheriseâs current condition, it should be temporary. It will take her half a year to recover at most. This is good news.â After that, he sighed nonchalantly. âI found some drugs in her blood, and I believe itâs related to her current amnesia.â âIâll take a sample of her blood for experts to analyze as Iâm not well-versed in drugs. Once the drugs are identified and the appropriate antidote is found, Iâm confident that it wonât take as long for her memory to recover.â âYour role during this time is to be by her side.â After that, Jacob raised his hand and patted Damienâs shoulder gently. âSheâs in this state because of you. As long as you provide her with enough care and affection, youâll gradually awaken her memories of you, and sheâll recover faster.â Damien looked at the woman in the distance, who gazed at him blankly like a child. A distressed expression flickered through his eyes, âAre you sure her memory will recover soon?â âYes.â Jacob nodded. âThis is temporary amnesia caused by trauma. Sheâll recover soon.â
Marrying the Man in the Dark Chapter 922-I Donât Remember âHowever, Sebastian is truly ruthless. On one hand, he created the illusion that Cherise cheated on you. On the other hand, he bribed your subordinates to use your men to harm your wife.â âNo woman could forgive her husband for sending someone to harm her. Moreover, Cherise was rumored to have betrayed you. These combined factors will undoubtedly leave her unsettled, causing her to doubt you and everything else.â Damien nodded in agreement. He had already anticipated everything Jacob had mentioned. There was only one thing Damien hadnât foreseen⌠He had recently been preoccupied with the companyâs affairs. He had forgotten that he had privately instructed-Mr. Kolson to train many bodyguards and assassins. Unfortunately, they became Sebastianâs pawns before they had the opportunity to serve the Lenoir family.
After seeing Jacob off, Damien walked to Cherise slowly. Blake had already retired for the night at this point. Cherise was curled up in the corner of the sofa, gazing timidly at Damien as if he were a dangerous stranger she was meeting for the first time.
âHello.â Damien greeted her with a smile, extending his hand towards her. âMy name is Damien Lenoir.â The woman blinked her clear eyes. âI⌠I donât remember my name.â âYour name is Cherise Shaw.â Damien smiled faintly. âJust remember that youâre named Cherise.â The woman pursed her lips and nodded silently. âOkay.â Damien picked up some fruit from the coffee table and offered it to her. âAre you hungry?â âMm!â The woman leaned over cautiously and reached out her fair hands carefully. She plucked a grape and started savoring its sweetness. After finishing it, she beamed at Damien sweetly. Damien peeled another grape and handed it to her. âIf you like it, have some more.â âOkay!â The woman grinned and took the grape. After finishing all the grapes, she pouted. âIâm still hungry.â âYouâre still hungry?â Damien took a deep breath. âWait here. Iâll prepare something delicious for you!â Cherise nodded and sat on the sofa, watching him leave with childlike curiosity.
In the kitchen, Damien quickly roasted drumsticks for her. Standing in the kitchen, he shut his eyes and heard the womanâs laugh in his ears. âDamien, how will I finish all the drumsticks you made? You know what? Once this ordeal is over, Iâll get ready to get pregnant with our third child, alright?â âDamienâŚâ Memories flooded his mind, piercing his heart sharply. He bit his lips viciously. After a while, the oven signaled that the drumsticks were ready. Damien composed himself, took the drumsticks out of the oven, and placed one before Cherise. âEat up. You used to love this.â Cherise glanced timidly at the drumstick like a child before she suddenly screamed. She jumped up as if electrocuted and burrowed herself in the corner of the room before she started retching. Damien followed her, patting her back gently. âWhatâs wrong?â As Cherise threw up, horrifying images flashed through her mind. A man with piercing eyes approached her with extended arms, saying, âAfter tonight, the whole world will think we slept together.â
Marrying the Man in the Dark Chapter 923-There Was a Man âThis includes Damien, your father, and all your family and friends. Do you know how much the shares I gave Damien are worth?â The manâs hand stroked her face gently. âOne billion. Even the dumbest person wouldnât casually give away something worth one billion. Still, I gave all of that to Damien because his woman begged me to sleep with her.â At that moment, Cherise couldnât remember who that man was, but she remembered how she felt then. She had shuddered as she felt fear, despair, and helplessness. The emotions in her mind made her body tremble unconsciously again.
Upon seeing the woman shiver uncontrollably, Damienâs heart utterly ached. âItâs okay. Youâre safe.â He extended his arms and embraced her. âItâs in the past. I wonât cook anything else if you donât like my cooking. You donât have to look at anything you donât like.â âCheriseâŚâ At the side, Frances couldnât help but turn away and wipe her tears when she witnessed this scene. She had been serving Damien closely in Lenoir Manor all his life since his parents passed away when he was eight years old.
