Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419 Prodigious Assassin

Frances finally nodded in agreement and quietly stepped aside. Cherise enjoyed her breakfast while keeping a watchful eye on Blake. She remembered her first encounter with Blake when Nicky had come to her school to torment her.

This young man not only dealt a heavy blow to Nicky but also took him to the rooftop garden, almost throwing him over the edge…

During that initial encounter, Cherise’s impression of Blake was nothing but fear and cruelty. However, over time, she came to realize that he was actually a simple and endearing boy.

On the way to school, Cherise asked Damien about Blake.

“He was taken into the assassin organization at a young age and treated like a lab rat. He had training but no friends, which is why he appears the way he does now,” Damien explained as he drove, gripping the steering wheel with his hands and a faint smile on his lips. “Why this sudden. interest in Blake?”

Cherise’s lips tightened. “Blake used to be… an assassin?”

“Yes.” Damien continued to drive with an unceasing grin. “A prodigious assassin.”

“Three years ago, when he was ten, he could ruthlessly eliminate trained attack dogs at the assassin base. So the organization tried to have him assassinate people.”

Cherise’s eyes widened in sheer disbelief.

A ten-year-old… taking lives….

“I was his initial target and his ultimate one. Damien looked forward, the unrestrained grin revealing itself. “Those who sent him to kill me probably assumed I was blind and had limited. mobility.”

To any trained assassin, I was an easy target. That’s why they sent Blake to assassinate me, thinking a single, young, and trained assassin would be enough to take my life. But Blake not only spared my life, he became part of my team.”

Cherise was speechless with shock. She had always sensed that Blake was different from other children and possessed immense power. However, she never imagined that Blake, who stayed by Damien’s side, had such a backstory….

“Is it really that astonishing?” Damien parked the car and helplessly looked at Cherise. There are even more staggering and legendary stories than this. If you want to hear more, I can gradually tell you.”
