Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14 I Didn’t Do Anything Wrong 

Lucy didn’t finish her sentence

Because she clearly felt that Damien, next to Cherise, had a strange disposition

Lucy bit her lips and said goodbye to Cherise before leaving

Damien was silent on the way back from the school to the villa

Cherise wanted to say something to Damien a few times but didn’t know what to say, so she could only stay silent

After returning to the villa, the first thing Cherise did was to put together the torn certificates little by little

It wasn’t easy to join together the ripped pieces

Most of the cards and postcards Cherise’s grandmother had written her were burned and destroyed. It was difficult to restore them

Sitting before a desk, Cherise looked at the burned and damaged photo album bitterly. She privately cursed Tristan repeatedly

After that, she was about to keep the photo album when a card fell out

She picked it up and wanted to put it back in but realized something else was stuck to it. It was an old picture of a boy

Half the photograph was burned

Cherise looked at the picture for a long time but couldn’t recognize the boy. She carefully put the photo into the album and kept it

When she had a chance, she had to ask her grandmother why a picture of someone else was stuck to a card for her

When she was done with everything, the sky had darkened

Frances knocked on the door. Mrs. Lenoir, Old Mr. Lenoir called to ask you and Mr. Lenoir to go to Lenoir Residence. You should get ready.” 

Cherise raised her eyes to look at the time. It was already eight o’clock at night. Grandpa wantsus to go there now

She vaguely felt a bad premonition in her heart

When Cherise had changed her clothes, Damien was already waiting for her in the car

Grandpa wants us to go there so late at nightDoes it have anything to do with what happened with Tristan today?” 

She asked cautiously when she entered the car

Naturally.” 

Damien’s deep voice was intertwined with disappointment and frustration. I told people will blame you for Tristan’s injury.” 

you that 

many 

After that, he turned his head to look at her. His eyes were covered by black silk. Are 

you 

afraid?” 

No.” 

Cherise shook her head. I didn’t do anything wrong.” 

Many things can’t be reduced to being right or wrong.” 

Damien shook his head as though annoyed and amused by her answer. Cherise, is your world so simple that it’s limited to right or wrong?” 

Cherise nodded. Anything that isn’t right is wrong, and vice versa. Isn’t the world like that?” 

My teacher said no one cares about your mental process during exams. The grader only looks at the final answer. The right answer is correct, and the wrong answer is incorrect.” 

She’s as innocent as an ignorant child. No. Perhaps Cherise is an ignorant child

Damien sighed indifferently and reached out to stroke her soft hair. People with personalities like yours are quite hard to come by 

” 

Cherise didn’t know if he was praising or belittling her, so she was sullen and silent

The car quickly arrived at Lenoir Residence

It was past nine o’clock at night. Ordinarily, Lenoir Residence’s lights would be turned off at this time, but it was brightly lit tonight

When Cherise pushed Damien’s wheelchair into Lenoir Residence, Tristan sat on the couch, covering his chest bound in gauze as Wanda fed him fruits

Tristan started crying crocodile tears when he saw Cherise. Grandpa, you must bring her to justice” 

Wanda also started crying. Dad, the messenger of bad luck is here. You must bring her to justice” 

The two were howling and bawling exaggeratedly as though their loved one had suddenly passed 

away

At that moment, Old Mr. Lenoir sat at the side, playing chess with Raymond. When the mother and son started wailing, Old Mr. Lenoir lost control of the chess piece in his hands and placed it in the wrong position. Raymond captured Old Mr. Lenoir’s king mercilessly

I won again.” 

Raymond laughed lightly and called out to Old Mr. Lenoir. Damien and Cherise are here, Dad. It’s time for you to get down to business.” 

Old Mr. Lenoir looked up at Cherise, who was pushing Damien in. He frowned ever so slightly

He moved his legs and rose. His voice was as loud as a bell. Come with me.” 

Old Mr. Lenoir led them to a room at the end of the second floor

When the butler opened the door, Cherise realized it was a gigantic memorial hall. Various plaques were inside

Cherise Shaw.” 

Old Mr. Lenoir called out

Yes, Grandpa.” 

Cherise answered as she loosened her grip on the wheelchair

Come here and kneel!” 

Old Mr. Lenoir said coldly, pointing to a mat next to him

Although Cherise didn’t know what he meant, she did it obediently out of her respect for an elder

The moment she knelt down, she clearly sensed Wanda smiling. Wanda seemed very pleased with herself
