Chapter 529
Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 529 Five Dollars
In the past, Cherise was a woman of firm principles.
Once she had decided something, she wouldnât easily change her mind.
If she believed that a relationship was over, she would sever all ties with the man.
However, the current Cherise seemed different.
Before long, the steady rhythm of her breathing began to deepen.
It was clear that she was exhausted.
Damien observed her for a while before he sighed, rose from his seat, and exited the car.
His silenced phone displayed several missed calls from Charles.
He dialed Charlesâ number as he ascended the stairs. âWhatâs the matter?â
âMaeve is awake.
Charlesâ voice was heavy. âShe wants to see you.â
âAlright.â

Damien closed his eyes and took a deep breath before pivoting to board the elevator.
A minute later, he appeared in Maeveâs ward.
âDame.â
With Charlesâ assistance, Maeve propped up on the bed and looked at her brother, who now seemed like a stranger, âMy attending physicianâ¦
is Cherise.â
Damienâs brow furrowed as he sat down. âSo, do you still harbor prejudice against Cherise even until now?â
âShe saved your life.â
Maeveâs face turned paler.
She shook her head, and her lips trembled slightly. âI donât hold any prejudice against herâ¦â
âThe nurse told me earlier that⦠sheâs married and has a child.â
A hint of coldness flashed across Damienâs stern fac. âThatâs impossible.â
âBut itâs the truth.â

Maeve sighed, âDame, if she has truly found her happiness⦠you should let go too.â

âBut if sheâs unhappyâ¦â
Her gazed profoundly at Damien. Then, Iâm willing to support you to win her back.â
Damien looked up, somewhat taken aback by her words.
âBefore this, I couldnât comprehend why a woman with no blood relation to you was worth your protection⦠Until I met Charles. I was too
mindless.â
She lifted her head as a drop of tear silently rolled down her cheek. âCherise is a good woman.â
âBut⦠if sheâs truly married, has a child, and is content⦠would you still pursue her?â
Damien didnât stay long in Maeveâs ward.
After perceiving that Maeveâs condition was stable, he left the building and returned to the limousine. However, only Blake was present.
Damien frowned. âWhere is she?â
âSheâs gone.â
Blake took out five coins from his pocket and quietly placed them on the table in front of him. âCherise said that this is her rent for sleeping for
an hour.â
Damien was rendered speechless as he gazed at the five gleaming coins on the table.
This fool⦠she really has changed.
On one hand, she used five dollars to establish a boundary with him.
On the other hand, her action trivialized his concern for her.
âMr. Lenoir, isnât Mrs. Lenoir being a bit unreasonable?â
Behind him, Mr. Hampson frowned.
Chuckling lightly, Damien walked over, picked up the five coins one by one, and held them in his
hand.
He placed the five coins into Mr. Hampsonâs hand and said, âGo to the bank and open an account to deposit these five dollars.â
âMr. Lenoir, what are youâ¦â Mr. Hampson was astonished.
Iâm curious to see how much money she intends to spend on me.â
