Dark Secrets of the Blind Husband novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 I’ll Wait

Cherise looked at the time. It was already seven at night. She smiled and said embarrassedly to Frances, “I’m studying in the library and lost track of the time. I’m sorry. I’ll come back at once!”

Before she finished speaking, someone called out to her. “Cherise, the patient at 203 wants to take a walk. Go and keep them company!”

The person shouted loudly.

On the other end of the phone, Frances fell silent momentarily. “Mrs. Lenoir, are you really at the library?”

“Mm.”

Cherise felt guilty. “Alright, I’ll be coming back in half an hour. Tell Damien not to wait. I’ve

eaten.”

After that, she ignored what Frances said on the other end of the phone and hung up.

She kept her cell phone before rushing to 203 and taking the patient for a walk.

The chilly night breeze blew, and she realized she was in a cold sweat.

At that moment, in Swan Lake Chateau, where Lenoir Manor was located.

The man in the wheelchair picked up his coffee gracefully and sipped it. “She can’t even come up with a good lie.”

He had instructed Frances to make the call. It was on speakerphone once the call went through. Therefore, he heard everything, including Cherise’s frantic voice and tone when she was lying.

“Mr. Lenoir, Mrs. Lenoir is being extorted and is working part–time. Are you really going to let her be?”

The butler stood by his side and asked respectfully.

The man put the cup of coffee in his hands on a saucer. A sneer was on the corners of his lips. “She’s hiding it from me because she doesn’t want me to know. Why should I get into this mess?”

Mr. Hampson was baffled. “But Mr. Lenoir, she’s your wife now.”

“It’s humiliating for you if she’s working like this.”

Damien smiled, and the corners of his lips curved into a sarcastic smile. “When have I not been humiliated?”

He was someone in the Lenoir family who was abandoned many years ago. To other people, he had lost all dignity and pride long ago.

Other than Old Mr. Lenoir, no one else had attended his wedding.
