My Blind Husband novel Chapter 725

"That's enough." Cherise raised her hand. "You don't get to decide if a woman is fond of you. It's up to the woman."

"I've decided to take tomorrow off to focus on my academic research at home. Once things have died down in a few days, I'll return to work at the institute and publish my latest thesis. That's the plan. Now, drive me to the institute to collect some materials."

Damien sighed and nodded in resignation. He retrieved the car keys from Mr. Kolson and drove Cherise to the research institute.

It was already past eight in the evening when they reached the institute, and the building was shrouded in darkness.

After exiting the car, Cherise took the flashlight she always kept in her bag and the institute keys she had previously borrowed from her supervisor. She briskly unlocked the door and strode in.

Damien frowned and shook his head lightly as he watched the petite woman's figure. Who said women fear the dark and need someone to accompany them? Cherry isn't scared of the dark. He shrugged helplessly and followed Cherise into the building.

Since Cherise held the flashlight, Damien didn't bother illuminating his path. He just trailed behind her.

"It's alright." Damien patted her back. He took the flashlight from her and scanned their surroundings.
