Chapter 588
Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 588 I Wonât Back Down
A lant smile flickered across Damienâs stern face. He turned to face Jordyn. âAre you suggesting that youâre
unintelligent?â
Jordyn was taken aback, realizing Damien was using her words against her. Her face instantly paled. âI just
couldnât bear it!â
âThen we have a problem.â Damien chuckled softly. âYou canât bear it? Youâre just a student who believes she
knows the hidden truth that the entire Lermille medical community is unaware of. Is it really up to a college student
like yourself to fight for justice?â
Jordynâs face turned ashen. She clenched her teeth and wanted to respond, but Cherise walked to the podium, her
brows slightly furrowed.
âI rarely bring up the medical incident involving Isaac Roebuck from years ago because he was my first apprentice
and once my closest collaborator. His situation devastated me, and I donât want others to speculate about him. I
understand his intentions back then, but he made a mistake.â
Tm not sure who encouraged you to insinuate that I had a role in that incident.â She cast a cold glance at Jordyn.
âBut the truth is, I wasnât in Lermille when Isaac independently decided to take charge.â
The investigation unit at that time had a clear record of where I was. I donât owe anyone an explanation.â
âAs for my relationship with Isaac, he did express his feelings for me back then, but I rejected him because I was
already married with children.â
âLastly, the rumor that I bribed him with fifty thousand to keep quiet is completely absurd. He lost his job and
couldnât make ends meet in Lermille anymore. His sick mother at home needed medical care, so I lent him fifty
thousand in case of an emergency.â
âAnd when I gave him fifty thousand back then, it was a loan, not a gift.â Cherise glanced at Jordyn. âYou have such
a strong sense of justice, Ms. Holden. Since you are so eager to advocate for Isaac, please remind him that he still
owes me money.â After that, Cherise gathered her belongings and left.
The classroom fell into a stunned silence. Everyone was looking at Cheriseâs departing figure in surprise.
To Cheriseâs students, she had always been a gentle and kind lecturer. But today, she completely shattered
everyoneâs preconceived notions of her.
As it turns out⦠Dr. Shaw is also assertive and impressive!
âTake her to the police station.â Damien glanced at Jordyn and was about to leave.
âI wonât give up! Restrained by two security guards on either side, Jordyn struggled and glared at Damienâs figure.
âCherise orchestrated the incident back then! She manipulated Isaac into performing the surgery and then denied
it! Iâll find the records from back then and prove Isaacâs innocence!â
Damien turned and glanced at Jordyn indifferently. He smiled, âThen I wish you luck.â With that, he walked away.
âI wonât give in!â Jordyn continued to struggle. âIsaac Roebuck is a good doctor. He doesnât deserve to be forgotten
like this!â
After leaving the academic building, Cherise got into her car, visibly agitated.
