Chapter 1000 Eat Properly

“Struggling with words, huh?” Her gaze shifted to him, a glint of unfamiliar animosity flickering in her eyes. “We have an arranged marriage. Why’d your sister plunge a knife into my mother at our wedding. leading to her untimely demise?” She couldn’t fathom what he was hiding. “Can’t you just explain this to me?” Her words hung in the air, stark and unyielding.

“There are too many players in the game,” Damien responded, a bitter smile tugging at his lips as he shut his eyes momentarily. “But if you’re up for it, I can explain everything in detail.”

“Are you stalling to conjure up a tale?” Cherise’s lips pursed, memories of Sebastian’s warning echoing in her mind. “You’ve had ample time on the ride home to concoct a story to fool me.” As Cherise said these words, she couldn’t help but recall Sebastian’s insinuations. With a sneer, she retorted, “You want to explain everything to me in detail? Are you simply putting it off, as Sebastian implied?”

“If I were concocting a tale, would I go to such lengths?” Damien’s eyes narrowed slightly as he advanced towards her, purposeful steps backing her into a corner against the wall. “Cherise, from this moment forward, I won’t tolerate that tone from you again.”

“You’re disregarding my feelings, and you’ve never grasped how much you mean to me,” he continued. his gaze brimming with a dangerous fervor. “Do you realize the magnitude of memories you’ve lost?”

“All of them,” he emphasized. “You’ve lost every memory from the past two decades. We’ve known each other for almost six years. That’s nearly two thousand days. You expect me to untangle our memories in a matter of minutes and elucidate it to you swiftly? This is utterly impossible!”

Cherise felt a jolt as Damien’s gaze bore into her. She nervously bit her lip, meeting his stare with silence.

“I know you’re stubborn,” Damien began, his voice measured yet firm. “Once you’ve set your mind to something, nothing sways you. It doesn’t matter how you see me now-as a stranger, an adversary, or a lover. But Cherise, heed my warning. Until your memory returns, take care of yourself. Eat your meals properly and wait for my explanations.”

“Don’t try my patience. You know me well enough,” he continued, rising abruptly. “I have plenty of tricks to ensure you eat your meals.” With a cold finality, he instructed, “Frances, prepare another meal. for the lady. If she refuses, keep making food until she complies.”

A chill crept down Cherise’s spine. She pouted, feeling a pang of betrayal. “You were so kind to me once… Is this who you truly are?” Just days ago, she never would’ve imagined that Damien, who had shown her such kindness, would utter such harsh words.

“Cherise, even if you regard me as your foe, Damien’s laughter cut through the air, icy and mocking. He turned away, dismissing her with a cold chuckle. “It’s in your best interest to eat your meals. Otherwise, you’ll find yourself incapable of seeking justice for your mother!” With that, he slammed the door shut, paying no heed to Cherise’s turmoil on the other side.

Alone in the room, Cherise stared at the closed door, her expression hollow. Tears silently flowed down. her cheeks as she sank to the floor in despair. She had hoped that her assertiveness would elicit some semblance of understanding from him. Yet, his resolve was unyielding. She finally realized that men were terrifying when they were being merciless.
