Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 1076

Chapter 1076 Inquiry and Allegations
It was highly probable that the individual responsible had significant ties to Gwenn. Otherwise, obtaining the video, which Damien had already eradicated, would be improbable.

"We're currently in the midst of an inquiry," the police responded with assurance. "Ms. Shaw, have faith; we will establish your innocence."

"Understood," Cherise responded with a smile, acknowledging the officer before directing her gaze to Damien. "It's ok, I'll await your return."

Her parting phrase cast a shadow over Damien's face, his eyes clouding with concern. Drawing a deep breath, he concurred, "I'll handle it swiftly."

Once Cherise was escorted from sight, Damien released a weighty exhale, reaching for his phone to dispatch a message to Otto and Mr. Hampson, 'Secure the surveillance footage from the hotel and its vicinity during the night.'

He was determined to unveil the identity of the individual complicit in Sebastian's escape, subsequent demise, and the calculated framing of Cherise.

"Mr. Lenoir!"

After concluding the call, Steve burst into the room, his breaths coming in ragged gasps. "I just got wind of Sebastian's body being found near the hotel dumpsters last night!"

His arrival was so abrupt that he was still audibly panting. "How's Cherry holding up?"

"If he didn't swing by to see Savannah, then he must've headed straight for Cherry," Steve persisted, preempting any response from Damien.

"I quizzed Sav about it, and she swore he didn't drop by!"

"Did Sebastian pay Cherry a visit last night?"

As he finished speaking, Steve's brows knitted in concern, sweeping his gaze around the room. "Hold on, where's Cherry?"

"Cherry was apprehended by the authorities because she's now the prime suspect for Sebastian's demise," Damien disclosed in a composed manner.

The creases on his brow deepened as he recounted the unfolding events to Steve. Then, with a gravity-laden tone, he implored, "I require your assistance."

Startled, Steve stumbled back a few steps, caught off guard by the news.

His shock stemmed from two factors.
