Chapter 955
Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 955 Her Decision She answered the phone gracefully, âMiss Weiss, have you arrived?â âAlright, Ill be waiting right outside the auditorium to escort you in!â âMiss Weiss?â Hearing the echo of Mrs. Lydia's voice, Mr. Hampson'âs frown deepened in the car parked outside the auditorium.
He looked at the woman in a white dress waiting at the entrance of the auditorium, and his voice instinctively lowered, âSir, it's Miss Yolanda.â âIf I recall correctly, Miss Yolanda is not on Mrs. Lydia's guest list. What is she doing here?â âShe must have a reason for being here,â Damien said, narrowing his eyes slightly.
âShould we go out now?â Mr. Hampson suggested quietly.
However, Damien simply waved his hand, âWait a moment.â As he said the words, he fixed his gaze on the door.
Speaking softly into his earpiece, he notified, âThe Miss Weiss that Mrs. Lydia went to greet is here for you.â âDo you want to handle it yourself, or should I go over?â Cherise smirked, lowering her voice. âYou know sheâs a lady.â âWhen it comes to womenâs matters, let us women deal with it ourselves.â [x Her eyes twinkled as if preparing for mischief. âDarling, I may have lost my memory, but I haven't lost my mind.â âI appreciate you being honest withbefore today.â âNow that I know, I won't back down.â She took a deep breath and declared, âI will show you that I, Cherise, am just as strong as I was before losing my memory.â Sitting in the car, Damien closed his eyes and let out a silent breath, a touch of bitterness appearing on his lips.
The current Cherise does not realize that the Cherise from before... couldn't do the things sheâs capable of now.
In the past five years, she has becmore detached and has softened her sharp edges.
1/2 She preferred to let go of many things and go with the flow.
She rarely confronted things straight on.
Yesterday, before Cherise entered the study room, Jacob informed him via video call, âThe truth isâ Cheriseâs amnesia was mostly her own decision.â âShe didnât want to face the truth, so she chose to escape, to forget.â âOtherwise, she wouldn't have forgotten everything so quickly.â âIt was her own mind that wanted to escape from it all!â Jacob's voice lowered as he continued, âDamon.â âI think perhaps something happened between Cherise and Sebastian.â âBlake said that when he arrived, ce was barely dressed, with blood on her body...â âIf it was just a near-death experience, she wouldn't have such a strong urge to escape reality...â âIn any case, be prepared.â Contrary to Jacobâs expectations, Damien responded by smiling faintly. âFirstly, I donât believe she will give up.â âSecondly, if she was truly coerced by Sebastian, then she is the victim. I should blmyself for not protecting my woman rather than assuming, like others, that she is damaging my reputation.â âA real man never doubts or suspects his woman, regardless of the circumstances.â âMiss Weiss!â Mrs. Lydia's voice broke Damien away from his thoughts. She extended a hand to Yolanda and invited her in. âI am delighted that you could chere to support the children!â âI am not here to show support.â Yolanda glanced at Mrs. Lydia, âI am here to adopt a child on behalf of my brother.â With that, she took out her phone and checked it, âThis childâs nis Alexis Smith.â âAlexis Smith?â Mrs. Lydia was surprised.
