Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 582

Chapter 582

If there are no complications, you can be discharged in three days.” She smiled at Charles. “Do you still remember the dietary restrictions I mentioned?”

“I do.” Charles quickly nodded. “I prepare her meals every day according to your guidelines.”

“That’s good.” Cherise smiled and nodded at him. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.” With that, she

turned to leave.

“Cherise.” Behind her, Maeve pursed her lips. “Can’t you… forgive me?”

“Why should I forgive you?” Cherise sneered. She stopped in her tracks and spoke icily without turning. “Forgive you for tarnishing what should have been my happiest memory? Or forgive you for everything you did to my mom?”

“Maeve, you’re a mother now, and you’re battling a life-threatening disease. You should understand how much my mom wanted to see me happily married. She led a challenging life, and her final wish was to see me happy. But what happened?”

Cherise closed her eyes, a bitter smile forming on the corners of her lips. “When you stabbed her at me and Damien’s wedding, it didn’t physically harm my mom, but it made her realize that I would never be happy whether I married Damien or not.”

“Firstly, I’m a doctor, and she’s a patient. As a doctor, I must treat every patient. Since you came to my hospital, I should give you my utmost attention. Secondly, her condition mirrors my mother’s. I personally operated on her because this condition is rare. I’ve researched theories of medical cases like these for nearly five years, and gaining hands-on experience is crucial.”

Having said this, she looked up at Charles, “Any further questions?”

Charles’ lips twitched, but he couldn’t say anything.

After a moment, he took a deep breath. “Dr. Shaw, since my wife’s condition resembles your mom’s, what will happen to her in the future…”
