Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 747 What True Love Is
Her heart melted into a puddle from his tenderness. She bit her lip. âDamienâ¦â
âI didnât mean to hide it from you. Itâs just, you know, we were still enemies. I would get in trouble if anyone
discovered I had rushed to the scene to save youâ¦â
Then, she looked into his eyes and continued, âIt was never my intention to deceive you.â
âI donât hold it against you for keeping it from me.â Damien kissed her lips, holding her tight. âItâs my fault. I should
have figured out it was youâ¦â
He looked down, observing her earnestly. âCherry, you have the right to punish me. Otherwise, I might⦠not be able
to forgive my foolishness.â
Cheriseâs face flushed. She bit her lip and looked into his sincere gaze. After a moment, she smiled. âAll right. Iâll
think about how to punish youâ¦â
Damien held Cherise and patiently waited for her to issue his punishment. He had expected a severe punishment,
judging from her prolonged silence.
However, to his surprise, Cherise suddenly smiled. âYour punishment is to send Ren and Sera to school from now
on!â
Damien was momentarily stunned. He gently kissed her lips. âOkay.â
For most parents, sending their children to school early in the morning might seem like a chore. But for Damien, it
was a delight. After all, he had unwittingly missed five years of his childrenâs growth.
He regretted not being more resolute back then. If only he had found her earlierâ¦
Unfortunately, no one can turn back time.â
Therefore, when Cherise tasked him with sending the children to school, he smiled warmly. âLeave it to
me.â
Cherise nestled in Damienâs arms, basking in his warmth. Her lips unconsciously curved into a sweet
smile.
In truth, she felt what happened back then was her fault. Things would have been much different if she had not
concealed the truth from Damien.
Yet, Damien never held it against her. Instead, he claimed he was at fault. He blamed himself for failing to think
things through and not searching for her hard enough. In other words, he blamed himself for everything.
But what did he do wrong?
Cherise felt she was the one truly at fault.
Damien was likely the only man in the world who would shoulder all the blame himself out of love for her. He would
never think it was her fault but regretted not discovering it sooner.

Moreover, he would never say her concealment of the matter led to their predicament. Instead, he only admitted
his shortcomings and took responsibility for everything.
Perhaps when a man loves you, he will overlook all the wrongs youâve done. Maybe this is what true love is.
She lay in Damienâs arms and closed her eyes. âWhat should we do about Rowena?â
âTil handle it. As for youâ¦â Damien sighed softly. âI remember you participated in many medical seminars. You can
try contacting the skilled doctors you know and see if they can improve Zacharyâs condition. He ended up like this
to save you. Moreover, heâs the head of the Miles family. If he remains unconscious for too long⦠it might pose a
problem.â
Cherise nodded and grunted softly in agreement..
She bore the most significant responsibility for Zacharyâs condition. Thus, she would undoubtedly find a way to help
him regain consciousness sooner.
Cherise and Damien returned to Adania in the evening.
After dropping Cherise off at Lenoir Manor, Damien immediately went to Adania Hospital.
