Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 918 Too Frightened

Damien's phone was ringing incessantly. He had tried calling Sebastian multiple
times. Many had also attempted to call Cherise but to no avail. Sebastian said
that Cherise was unavailable because she was too tired. Those words were
suspicious coming from him.

“Damien.” Maeve stood by the balcony, gazing at the overcast sky in the distance
where Damien had been staring. “Still no word from Cherise?” He shook his
head. After a moment, he turned to look at Maeve. “I've been overseeing Lenoir
Group for a long time. I'm tired.”

“Damien, please don't lose hope.” Maeve pursed her lips and went up to him. “Do
you know what the public is saying about you now?” She grasped Damien's hand
and spoke earnestly. “If you relinquish control of Lenoir Group now, others will
assume those rumors are true. They'll think that you're upset about your wife
sleeping with another man if you willingly give up these assets that basically fell
from the sky. You must remain composed at a time like this.”

“Cherise hasn't returned yet. You must wait for her to return before making any
decisions. You can't lose your composure... If you can't keep it together, who will
Cherise turn to in the future?” Maeve’s words gradually brought a glimmer of
hope into Damien's bloodshot eyes. He looked at Maeve, “Maeve... do you trust
Cherise?”

“How could I not trust my sister-in-law?” Maeve pursed her lips. “I believe
Cherise wouldn't be unfaithful, even if it was for your sake... I'm aware of her
stubborn nature. I'm just afraid...” Maeve sighed, gazing at the distant sky. “I fear
she may harm herself because she's too stubborn and determined...”

Damien's hands clenched into fists at his sides. He had underestimated
Sebastian’s power. He had believed that assigning Mr. Kolson and Blake to
protect Cherise would guarantee her safety. It was his mistake.

“Mr. Lenoir!” As he was consumed by regret, Mr. Hampson hurriedly opened the
door and rushed to the balcony. “Mrs. Lenoir and Mr. Blake have returned!” After
that, the man dressed in black swiftly dashed from the balcony. Maeve also
hurried down the stairs behind Damien.

Cherise sat on the sofa in the living room downstairs, clad in white, fluffy
pajamas. She was trembling as she was wrapped in a thick blanket. Beside her
lay a set of soiled clothes she had worn when she visited Sebastian yesterday.
Now, they were torn beyond recognition and covered in mud.

Cherise herself was covered in mud. Frances knelt beside Cherise, tears
streaming down her face as she cleaned Cherise’s feet gently with a warm towel.
The woman's feet and legs were covered with various wounds. Blake had
changed his clothes and sat silently in a corner nearby.
