Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 101 Itâs My Duty
He looked coldly at the people before him. âI didnât make you return from Europe to be incompetent.â
He threw a proposal on the table. âTake a look. If there arenât any problems, implement it
soon.â
Outside the Shaw Group building.
Cherise, who was in a white T-shirt and jeans, went to a few cafés but couldnât find hand- ground
coffee.
Cherise had previously noticed that Mr. Hampson specially instructed people to hand grind and roast
the coffee that Damien drank at home.
Therefore, he would dislike brewed coffee.
She went along the road but couldnât find a café that had hand-ground coffee, so she wanted to cross
the road and go to the other side to look for it.
But Cherise never imagined that someone wanted to kill her in broad daylight.
She was crossing the road as the car drove toward her.
The red light was still lit. However, the car didnât brake. Instead, it stepped on the drove straight toward
Cherise.

Cherise was late to catch on and only realized when the passersby around her cried out in surprise.
But it was too late!
A hand quickly pulled her to the side of the road at that critical moment.
But even when the person had moved quickly, the vehicleâs scorching exhaust pipe grazed Cheriseâs
leg.
âThank you.â
Cherise had yet to recover from her shock. She panted roughly as she thanked the who had pulled her
away.
person
âNo problem.â

A young, clear voice answered her.
She looked up subconsciously.
It was Blake.
Cherise was slightly surprised.
She never had a good impression of Blake. After all, he had almost killed Nick the first day. they had
met.
Therefore, she always felt the young teen was brutal and vicious.
But she never thought that the young teen, whom she didnât have a favorable opinion, would bravely
step forward and save her at such a crucial juncture.
âThank you, Blake.â
After Cherise calmed herself, she thanked him sincerely again.
âNo problem, Cherry!â
A shy smile was revealed on the inarticulate young teenâs face. âItâs my duty!â
The car had long driven away.
Blake helped Cherise back to the Shaw Group building to sit on a couch on the first floor.
Cherise was still concerned about Damienâs coffee, so she called Lucy to come over and buy him a
cup.
In the meeting room upstairs.
Mr. Hampson saw the news of Cherise getting injured on his cell phone. He looked up at Damien,
whom everyone was listening to.
At that moment, the man was sitting in the meeting roomâs seat of honor coldly and running the
meeting in a commanding manner.
Mr. Hampson furrowed his brows. He turned and left the room before calling Jacob.
âI understand!â
Jacob, who was lying on his bed, rolled his eyes. He looked up at lan, who was still cleaning. the clinic
earnestly. âA patient was scalded on the Shaw Group buildingâs first floor. Go and deal with it.â

On the phone, Mr. Hampson said Cherise was injured and wanted Jacob to go personally.
Jacob flattened his lips. Does he think Iâll believe it?
With how Damien indulged the girl, his first reaction would have been to immediately send a car to pick
Jacob up if she was injured!
But now, Damien had only asked Mr. Hampson to pass the message for Jacob to deal with.

Jacob had reason to believe that the person injured was only Mr. Hampson or someone
close to him.
Since it was only Mr. Hampson or his friend, Jacob naturally had no reason to personally make the trip.
It was most fitting to send lan over.
Jacobâs clinic wasnât far from the Shaw Group building where Cherise was at.
Cherise had waited less than ten minutes when lan rushed into the first-floor lounge with a first-aid kit.
