Indeed, Sebastian arrived bearing the truth.
After tall, he exposed revelations that Damien had kept hidden from her.
Could Sebastian be her true love, her past choice? With a steadying breath, Cherise began to move towards Sebastian.
As she did, a glint of coldness flashed in Damien's eyes.
In an instant, he forcefully pulled her back into his embrace.
âLet go of me!â Cherise instinctively fought against the sudden embrace, wrenching herself away from his grasp. She turned to meet his gaze squarely. âDonât lay a hand on me!â Her eyes held a mix of unfamiliarity, resistance, and hostility, igniting a deeper intensity in Damienâs gaze.
Undeterred by her resistance, he lifted her up after a deep breath, reminiscent of how he had rescued. her from the trash can moments before.
But while she had been filled with happiness then, now she brimmed with defiance and resistance, evident in her expression and demeanor.
Damien held her firmly, refusing to let her resist.
âLetgo!â Cherise demanded, her struggle growing more fierce with each passing moment.
âYou, the murderer of my mother!â she accused, her words striking Damien.
âYou, who orchestrated my marriage!â Each accusation pierced Damien's heart like daggers.
Yet Damien remained resolute, his demeanor serious careful, and deliberate as he carried her towards the exit with purposeful strides.
No matter what, he couldn't allow Cherise to fall back into Sebastian's grasp.

So, even if she hated him or resented him, he would bring her home! âDamien.â Sebastianâs voice cut through the tension as Damien, with Cherise in his embrace, strode past him, a faint smile playing on his lips. âYou cannot best me. She is mine, whether now or in the future. If she cannot be mine, I would sooner see her destroyed than with another.â With a meaningful glance at Damien, Sebastian redirected his attention to Cherise in his rival's arms. âMy dear, I'll be waiting.â Unaware of Sebastianâs ominous words, Cherise continued to struggle vehemently.
Unable to break free, she resorted to verbal assaults on Damien, hurling every angry epithet she could muster in his direction.
Despite Cheriseâs actions. Damien remained stoic, as if impervious to her assaults. He stood like a statue, allowing her to strike him, vent her anger upon him, without flinching or reacting.
He didnât release his grip.
Eventually, Damien escorted Cherise out of the library.
Just before they reached the awaiting car, Damien closed his eyes wearily, instructing Mr. Hampson in a tired tone. âTake care of those journalists inside.â âIf any of them dares to spread even a whisper of todayâs events, I want their entire publication brought to ruin!â âMake it clear to them that I. Damien, possess both the means and the resolve to do so. I'm not in a forgiving mood, and no one should dare to provokefurther!â Send Gifts 6.1K Balance: 1 Coins 114 +0
