Chapter 192
Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 192 A Cure for Damien
After confirming the time and the location, Cherise climbed out of bed. She hastily got ready, yawning
as she went along.
She gathered her hair into a loose ponytail and slipped into a casual jumper.
When she arrived at the living room downstairs, she saw Damien engaged in a conversation with
Jacob. However, their discussion subsided the moment they saw her.
Jacob cleared his throat and appraised her from head to toe. âThat was a short nap.â
She frowned and looked at him curiously. âWhat brings you here?â
Jacob is Damienâs personal doctor. If heâs here as soon as we get back, does this mean Damien has a
health condition?
The thought worried her.
When we were in the village, I wanted to stay a few more days because I liked it there, but I never
considered how that mightâve affected his health. Did something happen to him?
âWhy canât I be here?â Jacob retorted with a scowl. âI have some good news for you.â
âGood news? From you?â she pouted.
âOf course!â Ignoring Damienâs look of warning. Jacob continued loudly, âYou donât know the lengths
Damien has gone through for you! He never cared about his eyes, but this time around, he asked me to
find the best ophthalmologist abroad. Can you guess the outcome?â
Cherise perked up as soon as she heard that. âHow did it go? When will he be able to see again?â
Jacob was taken aback upon hearing her reply.
Instead of inquiring about the possibility of a cure, Cherise cut to the chase and asked when Damienâs
recovery could be expected.
She really does think that Damien can fully recover, doesnât she?
He nodded and proceeded to provide her with all the details.
âIf we follow their treatment thoroughly, Damien could regain his eyesight in a week and fully recover in
a month.â
Jacob had pushed the boundaries of medical science to expedite the recovery process as much as
possible.
Overjoyed by the news, Cherise threw herself into Damienâs arms and showered his cheeks with
kisses. âYouâre truly amazing, my love! I always knew youâd regain your eyesight!â

Jacob wrinkled his nose, taken aback by Cheriseâs display of affection.
Iâm the doctor, Shouldnât I be receiving the hug and the praises instead? What the hell did Damien do?
Nothingâ Iâm the one who traveled everywhere to find the specialists and looked into the possibilities,
while all Damien did was travel around with Cherise. After all the hard work Iâve put in, all Cherise did
was shower praises at Damien instead? Ugh⦠Forget it! Her mind works differently from the rest, and
even more so when sheâs in love!
Jacob shook his head. Just let her beâ¦.
âOkay, okay.â Damien stroked her hair gently and pried her hands away from his face. âWhy are you
up?â
Cherise pouted. âIan asked to see me.â
Oh, he doesnât like lan. I shouldnât have told him about that at this joyous time.
Regardless, Damien gave her a swift peck on the cheeks. âItâs not early now. Donât get late, okay? I still
have something to discuss with Jacob.â
back too
Cherise hummed in reply and went out in huge strides.
On the couch, Jacob watched as she left, unable to stop himself from smiling. âNo wonder Lennon
fancies her. She really is adorable.â
