Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 70

Chapter 70 The Lenoirs.

Everything unfolded in a breathless rush. By the time Cherise and Ian regained their composure, Damien had returned to his original position.

He sat indifferently in his wheelchair, covering the spot on Cherise where Lila pushed her with his large, thick hand. “Does it hurt?” He asked.

“Nah,”

Cherise responded, her lips pressing together in a tight line. She lifted her eyes to look at Lila, who was struggling to regain her stance. “Lila, you should calm down…

But calm was a distant horizon for Lila!

She was here to avenge Ian and to tilt his affections in her favor!

But in the end…

She had done nothing but embarrass herself in front of him.

While she was furiously muttering curses under her breath and attempting to stand, two men in black suits appeared at the entrance of the room.

One of whom was the manager of the facility.

And the other, Lila’s superior, the supervisor at the sanatorium.

Lila was stunned for a moment, and her subsequent expression was one of overflowing gratitude.

Did her supervisor bring the manager along to seek justice on her behalf, knowing that she had been assaulted?

She scrambled to her feet, thinking to herself that the bribes she had given to her supervisor had paid off!

Standing at the doorway, her supervisor glanced at Lila with an irritated look, then briskly strode towards her.

A flutter of excitement quivered within her, “Boss…”

‘Smack!”

Before Lila could utter another word, the supervisor slapped her across the face. The sharp crack of the contact echoed through the hallway.

1/3

The slap left Lila dumbfounded.

“Boss…” She stuttered in disbelief.

Meanwhile, the manager of the sanatorium had approached Damien courteously. “Mr. Lenoir, if anyone from the facility has offended you, we humbly ask for your forgiveness, please do not take it to heart…”

Standing at a distance, lan furrowed his brows deeply.
