Chapter 940: Chapter 955 Her Decision

She answered the phone gracefully, “Miss Weiss, have you arrived?”

“Alright, I'll be waiting right outside the auditorium to escort you in!”

“Miss Weiss?”

Hearing the echo of Mrs. Lydia’s voice, Mr. Hampson’s frown deepened in the car parked outside the auditorium.

He looked at the woman in a white dress waiting at the entrance of the auditorium, and his voice instinctively lowered, “Sir, it’s Miss Yolanda.”

“If | recall correctly, Miss Yolanda is not on Mrs. Lydia’s guest list. What is she doing here?”

“She must have a reason for being here,” Damien said, narrowing his eyes slightly.

“Should we go out now?”

Mr. Hampson suggested quietly.

However, Damien simply waved his hand, “Wait a moment.”

As he said the words, he fixed his gaze on the door.

Speaking softly into his earpiece, he notified, “The Miss Weiss that Mrs. Lydia went to greet is here for you.”

“Do you want to handle it yourself, or should | go over?”

Cherise smirked, lowering her voice. “You know she’s a lady.”

“When it comes to women’s matters, let us women deal with it ourselves.”

Her eyes twinkled as if preparing for mischief. “Darling, | may have lost my memory, but | haven't lost my mind.”

“| appreciate you being honest with me before today.”

“Now that | know, | won't back down.”

She took a deep breath and declared, “I will show you that I, Cherise, am just as strong as | was before losing my memory.”

Sitting in the car, Damien closed his eyes and let out a silent breath, a touch of bitterness appearing on his lips.

The current Cherise does not realize that the Cherise from before... couldn't do the things she’s capable of now.

In the past five years, she has become more detached and has softened her sharp edges.

She preferred to let go of many things and go with the flow.

She rarely confronted things straight on.

Yesterday, before Cherise entered the study room, Jacob informed him via video call, “The truth is— Cherise’s amnesia was mostly her own decision.”

“She didn’t want to face the truth, so she chose to escape, to forget.”

“Otherwise, she wouldn’t have forgotten everything so quickly.”

“It was her own mind that wanted to escape from it all!”

Jacob's voice lowered as he continued, “Damon.”

“| think perhaps something happened between Cherise and Sebastian.”

“Blake said that when he arrived, ce was barely dressed, with blood on her body...”

“If it was just a near-death experience, she wouldn’t have such a strong urge to escape reality...”

“In any case, be prepared.”

Contrary to Jacob's expectations, Damien res dedbysrhilirg fairttly.

“Bitty ee, she will give up.”

“Secondly, if she was truly coerced by Sebastian, then she is the Vicia.

C should blameymyselt for hot p teeting my woman rather than assuming, like others, that she is damaging my reputation.”

“Areal man never doubts or suspects his woman, regardless of the circumstances.”

“Miss Weiss!”

Mrs. Lydia’s voice broke Damien away from his thoughts. he- om extepsede handac Sanda and invited her in. “| am delighted that you could come here to support the children!” Visit to read the latest “lam not here to show support.”

Yolanda glanced at Mrs. Lydia, “I am here to adopt a child on behalf of my brother.”

With that, she took out her phone and checked it, “This child’s name is Alexis Smith.”

“Alexis Smith?” Mrs. Lydia was surprised.
