Chapter 858 A Journey of Unexpected Twists
"What if he has to work overtime all night? I don't know if his body can handle it..."
Frances's words made Cherise furrow her eyebrows tightly.
A significant issue at Damien's company has led to frequent late nights.
If he indeed had to work all night tonight, his health...
Taking a deep breath, she snatched the medicine from Frances's hand and grabbed her coat before heading out the door.
Outside, a black car awaited at the entrance.
Without hesitation, Cherise got in and instructed, "Go to the Lenoir Group."
The driver, wearing a low-brimmed hat, merely responded with a "Hmm" and started the car.
As Cherise sat in the back seat, her gaze fixed on the passing scenery outside the car window, her thoughts were consumed by Damien's situation.
She mentally rehearsed the scolding she intended to give him upon their reunion, utterly oblivious to the changing landscape around her.
When she finally snapped back to reality, they had reached the outskirts of Adania.
With furrowed brows, she noticed the car had veered off course, venturing into unfamiliar territory. "This isn't the way to the Lenoir Group!" she exclaimed, her confusion evident in her tone.
Suddenly, Cherise's demeanor shifted, her eyes, as dark as grapes, now vigilant as she stared at the man in the driver's seat. "Who are you? What do you want?" Her voice was firm, tinged with apprehension.
The man instinctively lowered his hat brim in response. "Do you not know what I want to do, Mrs. Lenoir?"
His slightly malicious and deep voice sent a shiver down Cherise's spine.
Frowning, she pressed further, "Who are you, exactly?"
"I... let me tell you, my husband is compelling. If he finds out that you want to kidnap me or harm me, he won't spare you!" She warned.
"Is that so?"
"Damien? He can't do anything to me," he scoffed.
The man's carefree and confident tone conveyed indifference as if he held all the cards in the situation.
It was Frances…
Frances wouldn't have hurriedly entered the car if she had not portrayed the situation as urgent.
