Chapter 167
Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 167 Cheriseâs Hometown
âNah, itâs fine,â Damien assured, gently cupping her face and kissing her lips. âIâve already made the
arrangements. Tomorrow, weâll go to your hometown.â
Cheriseâs eyes widened in disbelief. She couldnât utter a word.
âWeâll be there for a whole week. The man continued, âThat should give us plenty of time. for
you to take me fishing and feed your cat.â Damien teased her while ruffling her hair dotingly.
Overwhelmed with joy, Cherise was left momentarily speechless. When she finally came back to her
senses, she excitedly grasped Damienâs hand and blurted, âNo way! Is this for real?â
She thought sheâd have to wait for a while.
After all, when she had mentioned going back to her hometown to Damien the previous night, he hadnât
immediately agreed. She wasnât in a hurry, though. Lennon was managing the company in her
absence, and she didnât want to burden him with trivial matters.
However, it was a delightful shock that Damien agreed to visit her hometown together!
Cherise enthusiastically showered Damien with kisses all over his face and practically bounced beside
the sofa. âYay! Weâre going home!â
Her excitement wasnât just about bringing Damien to see the holistic medicine doctor because she was
starting to miss home.
Damien leaned back on the sofa, watching her with a contented smile.
Little did Cherise know that Jacob would return with a team of medical experts in just a week. When
she happily returned home after that week, she was in for even more good news double the happiness!
Damien gazed at her flushed, excited face and cautioned, âDonât get too carried away for
now.â
Cherise looked back at him with a beaming smile and replied, âI canât help it. Iâm just so happy!â
He pulled her into his arms, hugged her tightly, and said, âThink about what gifts to bring for your
grandma, uncle, aunt, and your uncleâs Tay and Sky.â
The familiar and refreshing scent of Damien made Cheriseâs heart race unexpectedly. She bit her lip
and asked, âOh, do we need to bring gifts?â

In the past, when she visited her hometown, her uncle had constantly reminded her not to waste
money on gifts.
âOf course, youâre wealthy enough and have plenty of money to spend now,â Damien assured her,
pinching her cheek. âbesides, this is my first time visiting your family. I canât. show up empty-handed,
can I?â
Cherise nodded and agreed, âOkay, after dinner, letâs buy some gifts!â
Damien asked, âWhat does your grandma want the most?â
Cherise blushed slightly, recalling her grandmotherâs request. âMy grandma said⦠She wants to hold
her great-grandchild from me the mostâ¦â
Damien chuckled, his gaze fixed on her flat abdomen beneath her clothes, and remarked, âI also wish
to grant Grandma her wish. However, itâs only been less than a month since we were intimate. Even if I
wish for it to happen, itâs going to take time, my dear.â
Cheriseâs face turned bright red instantly, and she replied, âIn that case, we can only give her
something simple for now,â
Seeing her blushing face, Damien smiled contentedly. âLetâs go have dinner, and afterward, we can
brainstorm ideas for the gifts, okay?â
Cherise nodded and said, âSure!â
After dinner, Damien kept his word and took Cherise to the mall to shop for gifts.
As they headed to the supermarket, Cherise couldnât help but feel a little worried. Damien couldnât see,
so navigating the crowded supermarket with only his sensitive hearing might be challenging. However,
when they arrived at the mall, she was surprised to find it almost. empty.
The bustling shoppers were nowhere to be seen, and the only sound was the music. playing in the
stores. Besides the staff, Cherise and Damien were practically the only customers in the mall.
