Chapter 71
Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 71 Mr Lenoir
Lila rolled her eyes; after all, who was not aware of the Lenoir family? They were the wealthiest family
in Adania, with business spanning over various industries. However, wasnât the casanova, Tristan, the
eldest son of the Lenoir family? What had this blind man. got to do with the Lenoir family?
The supervisor whispered, âThis is the other son from the Lenoir family. Were you expecting David to
bow down to any Tom, Dick, and Harry? You could have poked. anyone, but you chose to poke this
bear? And you even forced his wife to handwash her bed sheets? Did you know that on the first day
Cherise got married, a silly worker who failed to tame her tongue was flogged to death?â
Lila was shocked to the point that she almost collapsed. Cherise was held back by David just as she
started pushing Damien out. âMr Lenoir, well⦠Just because of the incompetencies of some of my
employees, it is rather unfair to burn the bridge between.

Cherise frowned as she gazed upon David. âYou are the manager of this sanatorium?â David was
pretty excited that Cherise was willing to engage in negotiations. Thatâs right! I
manager!â Cherise clenched her jaws, âWell, for starters, the washing machine has been down for a
long period.â She was sincere in her suggestion, âIf you are the manager, please get it fixed as soon as
possible; the bedsheets around here are tough-handwashing them is not only exhausting, it definitely
does not thoroughly clean them.â As she spoke, her vision shifted towards the corner that was
inundated with bedsheets. âI am pretty sure that the sanitizing effect of a washing machine is superior
compared to hand washingâ A a sanitorium, cleanliness and sanitization should be expected, not a
luxury, right?
Beads of sweat were visibly forming on Davidâs forehead when he was confronted with their
incompetency.
Damien lifted his hand as his fingers drummed on his chairâs leather arm support. âUnable to repair a
broken washing machine nor carry out proper sanitizationâ¦â His smirk was a terrifying harbinger, âWell,
I believe it is only right for this sanitorium to be shut down for maintenance for a few months. After all, it
should not be too much to ask for an operating washing machine and proper sanitization to be in
business.â
Blood was completely drained from Davidâs face at this point. A few months?! His long- time customers
would definitely all have shifted elsewhere! Even a week of non-operation would be unimaginable! He
wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead and pleaded, âNo, thereâs no need for such trouble! I will
get someone to fix it right away! All I need is an hour!â
âWow!â Damien chuckled, his low rumble sending a chill down everyoneâs spine. âIf all it took was an
hour, why was everyone unresponsive all this while? Did you consider my wife to be an easy target, so
you had her hand wash everything?â He lowered his head and.

sighed, âThis is such an amazing place. I would not even let Cherise wash a single handkerchief back
at my place, worried that she would be exhausted.â
David shuddered as he contemplated whether he should kneel before Damien. Damienâs encrypted
message was clear as day. Cherise was considered royalty within the Lenoir family; the fact that
Cherise never had to do any washing with the Lenoirs, but the sanitorium got
her to handwash the bed sheets! David was visibly shaken. âThis⦠Mr. Lenoir, I was fully unaware! I
was not aware that your beloved would be working here, nor⦠If I knew that she was your wife, I would
have never let her hand wash it!â Davidâs statement did not sit well with Cherise.
âEven if it was not me, I do not think handwashing is acceptable, we cannot guarantee the cleanliness
levelâ¦â David stammered, âI, I misspoke, I did not know anyone was handwashing, if I knewâ¦â
Cherise was confused by his statement, âBut Lila told me that. the reason why the washing machine
was still broken was because you had yet to contact anyone for repairs rights?â David was rendered
speechless by Cheriseâs honest naivety. Lila was simply destroying any escape routes he had!
