Tve thoroughly explained to Mr. Luther and provided written instructions on the patientâs subsequent care.â Cherise said
âIf thereâs nothing else, I would appreciate it if you could leave. Iâve been in surgery for thirteen hours. I desperately need some rest.â
Damien stood silently by the door, his heart pounding as he gazed at her.
He had been searching for her for five long years,
From the moment he heard of Charisaâs death, he had been relentlessly searching for Cherise
Yet, neither the Miles nor the Tanners revealed her whereabouts.
He searched every place he could think of, where she might go, but to no avail
Little did he expect she would be working as a doctor in this remote, small city.
He had envisioned their reunion countless times, but he never anticipated that upon their
encounter.

She would regard him as a total stranger.
Cherise didnât appear elated or sentimental upon the encounter. In fact, there was not even a hint
of resentment.
To her, he seemed to be nothing more than a strange and a patientâs family member.
âMr. Lenoir, if youâre unwilling to leave, feel free to hang around in the office. The room has surveillance cameras, so Iâm not worried youâll
take anything from here.â
With that, she was about to close the door to the staff dormitory to get some sleep.
Suddenly, the man took a quick step forward, slammed the door shut, and pinned her against it. âAre you pretending not to recognize me?â
The manâs icy demeanor caused Cheriseâs heart to flutter
It was all too familiar-his heartbeat, his warmth, his scent.
Even after five years apart, she still yearned for him.
Yet despite the surging emotions within her, her face remained impassive. âMr. Lenoir, Iâm not pretending not to recognize you. I didnât ask who
you are. I know youâre Ms. Maeve Lenoirâs younger brother When did I ever pretend
Her nonchalarit words caused Damienâs brows to furrow. âYou know our relationship is more than

that!â

âWhatâs the relationship between you guys, thenâ¦?â
After a moment of silence in the staff dormitory, a soft female voice came forth.
Caught off guard, Damien instinctively turned to look behind him.
Inside the staff dormitory, two bunk beds were occupied by a man and two women.
They stared at Damien and Cherise with their eyes widened.
Damien was flabbergasted.
He hadnât realized there were others present.
Cherise gave him a helpless look. âMr. Lenoir, could you release me now?â
Frowning, Damien glanced at the three onlookers and reluctantly released Cherise.
âPlease close the door on your way out, Mr. Lenoir.â
Cherise yawned and had no intention of continuing to engage with Damien.
She lay down in the vacant bed, pulled a blanket over herself, and prepared to sleep.
Damien remained motionless as his eyes fell on the man lying on the bed beside Cherise.
He knitted his brows. âYou share a room with a man?â
Cherise rolled her eyes, looking impatient. âThatâs none of your business.â
It was a small hospital, so the rest area was modest.
