Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 355 Do You Have An Invitation
After marrying Damien, Cherise was in awe of the Lenoir family.
Currentlyâ¦.
The Tanner family was not just impressive.
They were practically treated like royaltyâ¦
As Cherise sat in the corner of the birthday banquet, observing the people coming and going to wish
Beckham, she was astonished to the point where her jaw almost dropped.
They were the wealthiest and most famous people in the world⦠People she had only seen. on the
news were now humbly speaking to Beckhamâ¦
âStay here for a moment.â
When Damien saw a familiar figure walk to a remote corridor with Zachary, he stood up and quietly
instructed Cherise before leaving.
Cherise obediently sat in the corner and nibbled on cookies.
âYou donât look that unsophisticated after dressing up today, country bumpkin.â
A womanâs taunting voice echoed.
Cherise furrowed her brow. She knew who it was without even looking.
She frowned and looked up. âItâs Mr. Beckhamâs birthday today. Donât you need to help. out, Ms.
Tanner?â
Gwenn sneered and taunted Cherise. âWe have enough servants in the Tanner family. Do
think weâre in your village where family members need to help out? Country bumpkin.â
you
Cherise pursed her lips. She didnât understand why Gwenn disliked her and always found an
opportunity to ridicule her. So what if Iâm from the countryside?
Is it embarrassing?
Cherise felt slightly unhappy.
She took a deep breath and stood up, looking directly into Gwennâs eyes. âMs. Tanner, I donât know
how my countryside upbringing has offended you.â

âI donât think my background is worth mentioning repeatedly.â
âEveryone has a different way of living. To you, those from the countryside may seem unsophisticated,
but in our village, many people are kind-hearted. Few constantly nitpick. on others like you, Ms.
Tanner.â
Until now, Cherise had remained silent and pretended not to hear whenever Gwenn taunted her.
This was the first time Cherise responded properly.
And it was during Beckhamâs birthday banquet.
After hearing Cheriseâs words, the people around them turned and began discussing it. animatedly.
Gwenn felt humiliated and was about to say something when Kareen, who was standing nearby,
quickly approached. She whispered softly into Gwennâs ear. âI saw Damien going to the backyard. I
donât think heâll be back soon. Why donât weâ¦â
Gwenn sneered and looked at Cherise. âIâm not looking down on you. Many of our familyâs servants are
from the countryside as well.â
âSince I was young, Iâve been taught that those from the countryside have a different status. than
intellectual people like us.â
âIâm surprised someone like you could appear at my fatherâs birthday banquet.â
âIf you werenât Damienâs wife, I might have instructed the servants to kick
you out.â
Cherise gritted her teeth. Her hands clenched into fists by her side. âRegardless of my status or social
class, I received an invitation. Who are you to say anything about throwing me out?â
âInvitation?â
Gwenn laughed. âDo you have an invitation? Is your name written on the invitation?â
If Gwenn remembered correctly, her father had instructed her to send Damienâs invitation.
Only Damienâs name was written on the invitation. Not even Mrs. Lenoir or Cherise Shaw.
Now that Cherise mentioned the invitation, she was only asking for trouble!
