Chapter 428 Do Not Mess With Cherise
Damien raised his head slowly and gave Lennon a cold look. He gently released his arm from around
Cherise and said, âLet Mr. Kolson take you home, alright?â
âI have some matters to attend to.â
Cherise nodded and hugged herself. âGo ahead.â
âTake care.â
Damien kissed her forehead and stepped out of the car.
The car started moving.
Cherise curled up in the backseat and remained still.
Fear grew in her chest. Strange and unsettling images flooded her mindâ¦
Damien watched until Cheriseâs car disappeared from his view.
Once it was gone, he turned back to Lennon. He clenched his fist and punched Lennon in the face.
Lennon staggered to the side.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. âWas that really necessary? Cherry wasnât even hurt.â
Damien had spent the entire day in a confrontation with Danielle at the

While Damien only wanted Raymond to face consequences.
The two of them argued all day but couldnât reach a resolution.
company.
Thatâs why Lennon decided to use Cherise as bait to trap Tristan and disrupt the complicated.
relationships within the Lenoir family.
Of course, Lennon didnât inform Damien about his plan to use Cherise.
But even so, he kept a close watch on Cherise since she left school.
He knew how much Damien cherished her and made sure she didnât suffer much.
âWhat if Tristan had targeted Lucy instead?â
âWhat if Lucy was the one slapped by Tristan?â

Damien grabbed Lennon by the collar, his eyes filled with rage. âDo you think you could have stayed
calm?â
âDamien!â
Lennon frowned, grabbing the hand on his collar. âI thought you would realize it was a setup.â
âCherise didnât experience much harm!â
âBut if I hadnât involved her, would you and Danielle have resolved your conflict without fighting?â
âIf it werenât for what I did, would you have peacefully stepped back?â
Damien glared at Lennon, refusing to let go.
Lennon took a deep breath. âDonât think I donât know that youâve barely given any thought to the
situation with your family!â
âAll your attention is focused on Cherise!â
âHow much work have you done for the company recently?â
âIf you hadnât neglected your responsibilities, Raymond wouldnât have had the opportunity to do
this!â
âCherise is all thatâs on your mind. Your sister noticed it too. Thatâs why she took control of the
company and started that fight with Raymond.â
Damien narrowed his eyes.
Lennon took a deep breath. âCherise has gained a lot.â
âAll I wanted was for her to make a small sacrifice for you. Was that too much to ask?â
âYes.â
Damien sneered. His knuckles turned white with anger. He struck Lennon. âLennon, I know you think
youâre doing this for my own good.â
âBut I wonât allow anyone to harm Cherise.â
âNot even myself.â
Damienâs icy glare remained fixed on Lennonâs face. âWeâve known each other for so many years. You
should know better than anyone what kind of person I am.â
âThere wonât be a second chance.â
âIf there is⦠If you mess with Cherise again.â
