Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 848 If Sheâs Willing
A moment later, a deep. gentle voice answered the call. âWhatâs the matter?â
âWhat are you doing?â Cherise asked.
Iâm having dinner with a business partner.â
Cherise raised her eyebrows. âWhoâs your business partner?â
âSomeone I have dealings with regarding shares.â
Damien answered honestly, without any hint of hiding. âI want to buy back Lenoir Group
shares from this person, so we are having a meal together.â
His deep, magnetic voice sounded amused as he continued, âWhy? Have you suddenly
decided to check on me, Mrs. Lenoir?â
After saying that, his voice lowered a few notches. âIs it because I didnât satisfy you
enough last night and this morning? Donât worry. I have plenty more in me. Weâll continue
tonight.
Cheriseâs hand trembled violently as she gripped the phone. She almost threw it to the
floor. If it werenât for Mr. Zeller and Mr. Whitlockâs presence, she would have cursed
Damien as an old lecher.
Instead, she took a deep breath and pursed her lips. âSo, is your client male or female?â
âFemale.â Damienâs response was straightforward. âNot as beautiful as you, nor as
gentle.â
âIn that case, donât negotiate.â Cherise took a deep breath. âIâm at Mr. Whitlockâs office in
the institute. Come and pick me up now. Also, bring your female client with you.â
Damien was briefly silent but did not hesitate. âIf sheâs willing.â
Then, he laughed, saying, âShe and I are neither relatives nor friends. I canât ask her to
accompany me to pick up my wife the first time we meet, can I?â
Cherise pursed her lips. âShe will be willing.â With that, Cherise immediately hung up the
call.
After putting her phone away, Cherise looked up and met Mr. Zellerâs gaze. As their eyes
met, Mr. Zeller chuckled, saying, âCherise, your call just now was quite enlightening. Iâm
starting to get curious about your husband. What kind of person is he?â
Cherise smiled at him. âYouâll see him soon enough.â

After saying that, she couldnât be bothered to continue conversing with the two. Instead,
she closed her eyes and reclined against the sofa, pretending to take a nap.
Mr. Whitlock was stunned. He guessed Damien was the person Cherise had called just
now. Furthermore, he heard her asking him about his female client.
Does this mean Yolanda is only a female client to Damien?
But⦠When Mr. Zeller came to see me, he said Yolanda was Damienâs new love interest! If
he hadnât said that, I wouldnât have dared to treat Cherise like I did.
Seeing how calm and fearless Cherise was forced him to think of the worst.
He knew if there were no issues between Damien and Cherise, Damien would suppress the
plagiarism incident again. Then, would he still get the payment Yolanda promised?
Mr. Whitlock appeared calm, but internally, he was as anxious as ants on a hot pan. He
worried about his future if he failed to get Yolandaâs payment and offended Damien and
Cherise.
As Mr. Whitlock pondered what to do, someone knocked on the office door and opened it.
It was Heather. She carefully brought a cup of tea and placed it on the desk behind Mr.
Whitlock. âMr. Whitlock, please have some tea.â
Her timid voice made Cherise frown slightly.
