With such a handsome and wealthy husband, why would she be interested in the senior she once
admired?
Cherise noticed the disappointment in lanâs eyes and felt a squeeze in her heart.
Meanwhile, Blake gave Lila another slap in her face. His slaps were forceful and caused. Lilaâs cheeks
to swell after just two slaps. She wailed and begged for mercy on her knees. but firmly accused
Cherise and Ian.
On the fourth slap, Lila finally passed out. David asked carefully, âMr. Lenoir, should I wake her up with
cold water so you may continue?â
Damien smirked. âMr. David, you donât show mercy for your staff at all.â
He looked down at Cherise and asked, âWhat do you think?â
Cheriseâs gaze remained on Ian. Although she no longer admired him like before, she couldnât bear to
see his self-deprecating and disheartened look. Her attention was focused on Ian, but she snapped
back to reality upon hearing Damienâs low voice. âHubby, what did you say?â
Her term of endearment sounded like a silent mockery to lan. But on the other hand, Damien wore a
self-deprecating smile. Sheâs calling me Hubby, but inwardly, sheâs worrying about another man.
Meanwhile, David smiled servilely and said, âMr. Lenoir, if you need me toâ¦â
âForget about it.â Damien waved his hand. Since Cherise didnât care about it, why should. he bother?
David wiped away his cold sweat and was relieved. He had someone drag Lila. said, âMr. Lenoir, is
there anything else I can help you with?â

âIâm tired. I want to go home and rest. Damien spoke aloofly and released Cherise. âLetâs go, Blake.â
âOkay.â The young man walked briskly to Damien and wheeled him toward the exit.
Cherise was startled and was about to go after them. After taking two steps, she looked at Ian and
said, âlan, please donât lose confidence in yourself. Although youâre not as good as my husband, youâre
still an outstanding person!â
With that, she quickly chased after Damien, leaving lan standing at the spot as he watched her leave.

Cheriseâs black hair, tied into a ponytail, swung in the air as she trotted, emanating a sweet and
youthful charm.
Her remark echoed in his ears. âAlthough youâre not as good as my husband, youâre still an outstanding
person!â
Silently, Ian clenched and released his fists at his sides.
Blake walked so quickly that Cherise only managed to catch up with them when they arrived at the car.
Panting, she got into the car and sat next to Damien. âHubby, why didnât you wait for me?â
Looking at her face, which turned red after running. Damien passed a tissue to her.
Cherise took it and wiped the sweat from her forehead. Then, she looked at Mr. Kolson, who was in the
driverâs seat, and asked, âMr. Kolson, donât you feel the air conditioning i too cold?â
Mr. Kolson was startled. Moments later, he let out a cough. âMrs. Lenoir, the air conditioning is not
turned onâ¦
Cherise frowned, thinking why it was so cold without air conditioning. While she was puzzled, the man
beside her spoke up frostily. Are you done having secret talks with your senior?â
