Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186 Worth Less Than A Blade Of Grass

“Who would have thought that Cherise’s husband would have such untoward intentions.

towards me… Sob…”

Cherise darted forward and shielded Damien behind her. “You’re lying! My husband would never do such a thing!”

The village chief frowned. He sighed quietly before asking, “Vivian, think it over carefully. Could you have been mistaken? I don’t think Cherise’s husband would do that either.”

“Maybe you forgot to announce your presence when you entered, and he mistook you for

Cherise?”

Damien narrowed his eyes.

The village chief had chosen his words carefully.

It may look like he was trying to help Damien by convincing Vivian that it was just a simple misunderstanding.

But his words were cleverly phrased to insinuate that something inappropriate had happened between Damien and Cherise, denying him the chance to explain.

It turned out that while the village chief appeared impartial, he had ulterior motives.

Vivian sniffled. She covered herself with a robe and dabbed her eyes. “I struggled and told him I wasn’t Cherise. And he said he knew it was me all along.”

“You’re lying!”

Cherise shielded Damien behind her. “My husband isn’t the kind of person who would do something like that!”

Ben rolled his eyes. “You’ve only been married to him for a month. How would you know. the kind of person he is? What if he’s just pretending to be a gentleman?”

He darted a glance at Elvis. “Your daughter is way too naïve for her own good. The man is obviously lying to her, yet she’s serving herself on a silver platter!”

Elvis paled. He turned his full attention towards Damien, “Mr. Lenoir, tell me what really happened.”

“What more does he have to say?”

Vivian crumpled onto the floor in tears. “He’s not going to admit to it and accuse me of

lying!”

The village chief thought deeply before sighing in exasperation. “That’s true… Who would admit to doing something they shouldn’t have?”
