Dark Secrets of the Blind Husband novel Chapter 220

Chapter 220 A Resolved Misunderstanding

She was the one who was injured. She was the one who was hurt and hospitalized.

Yet she was concerned about his feelings. She pulled at his arm, hoping he would be soothed.

“Don’t you like silly fools?”

She pursed her lips and clung to his arm. “Don’t be mad at me.”

Damien sighed helplessly. He raised a hand and caressed her soft, white face. “And you? Are you still mad at me?”

Cherise paused and realized that he was referring to his eyes.

She shook her head at once. “I’m not! Not anymore!”

“I’m not mad at you either.”

His voice deepened as he pulled her closer. “I’m mad at myself.”

He placed his chin on her shoulder. “I’m mad at myself for letting things get to this point. At first…”

But I didn’t want to lie to you. Before everyone else knows that my eyes are all right, I wanted to tell you there was nothing wrong with my eyes the whole time. But Ian beat me to it.”

Cherise hugged him. When she noticed the sorrow in his voice, her heart ached as though it was pierced by an arrow.

Before everything happened, Damien instructed Frances and had her prepare a table full of food. The servants were dismissed, too.

It was not just an excuse. He was telling the truth.

Last night, he planned to accept her wholeheartedly and lay all his secrets before her.

Yet…

Cherise pursed her lips. “I was wrong, honey…”

She did not give him a chance.

She trusted lan too much.

In the end, she did not give him the opportunity to explain himself, nor did she give him the chance to care for their unplanned child.

She hugged him tightly. “It’s my fault. I’m wrong. I wasn’t a good wife. I’m not a good cherry. I’m at bad cherry…”
