Chapter 871 A Husband’s Shield

Her outcry immediately drew the attention of the bystanders.

Cherise stepped back, preparing to retrieve her hat and mask, when she was warmly

embraced.

Damien, holding Cherise with one hand and carrying Soren with the other, fixed a cold

gaze on the woman. “You should be mindful of your words.”

“My wife has never engaged in plagiarism. If you persist in spreading false rumors, I won’t

hesitate to take action.”

“Are you attempting to intimidate me?”

“I’m terrified!”

The woman sneered, “Damien, do you even know who I am?”

“I am Sebastian’s secretary at the Weiss Group!”

“Soon, your Lenoir Group won’t be yours anymore. What are you pretending for?”

Damien smiled faintly, his demeanor calm and distant. His eyes seemed to dismiss her

words as inconsequential.

There was no hint of anger or annoyance, as though her insults were mere trifles.

The woman felt a sense of unease.

Despite the hurtful nature of her words, they failed to elicit any visible reaction from

Damien.

It was evident that he had never held her opinions in high regard, regardless of their

impact.

“Of course, I know who you are. Your name is Malice Thorn.”

Damien, holding Cherise, spøke calmly. “I am aware that Sebastian prompted your words.”

Malice was taken aback. “You…”

“If it weren’t for orders from above, a senior secretary wouldn’t speculate about company

shares and ownership changes.”

“The fate of a company is influenced by more than just its shares. You should understand

1/3

this.”

“Your actions suggest either incompetence or malice.”

“While I don’t know Sebastian personally, his recent business dealings suggest he

wouldn’t hire an incompetent secretary.”

Damien smiled at Malice. “You can tell Sebastian his tactics won’t work on me.”

“If he wishes to challenge me, he should do so in the business arena. Insulting my wife will

only diminish his reputation and that of the Weiss Group.”

With that, Damien shielded Cherise and departed.

Even after their departure, Malice remained stunned, unable to regain her composure.

She had already portrayed herself enough as a shrew and unreasonable

person.

How did this man see through her flaws?

Pursing her lips, she dialed a number. “Boss, it didn’t go as planned.”

“I witnessed it.”

Sebastian, concealed in the shadows, spoke. “You’re fired.”

Malice’s eyes widened. “But, Boss…”

“You’ve disrupted my plans.”

“But, Boss!”

Malice gripped her phone tightly. “I was listening in when the kindergarten teacher called!

She didn’t contact Damien!”

“I don’t know how Damien found out!”

Initially, Sebastian had tasked Malice with the mission of insulting Cherise, intending to

coincidentally intervene and assist Cherise, thus compelling Malice to apologize.

This will place Cherise in his debt once more.

However, Damien’s unexpected arrival preempted this plan.

Sebastian chuckled. “It was an oversight on my part.”

2/3

“If my spouse faces public criticism, I will also install a listening device on her phone to

ensure her safety anytime, anywhere.”
