Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 193

Chapter 193 He’s Lying 

“You’ve also heard about what Lennon did?” 

“Of course.” Jacob grimaced. “You never mentioned to him that she’s your wife. That guy bugs me every day, asking if there’s another woman in your house who’s neither your wife nor your servant. It’s annoying!” 

Damien took a sip of his tea with a smile. “Did you tell him?” 

Jacob shook his head firmly. “Absolutely not. The more he probes, the less inclined I am to tell him anything.” 

“Good job,” Damien commended. 

“Of course!” Jacob raised his tea unceremoniously. “I look forward to seeing the expression on his face when he realizes the girl he’s interested in is your wife. That would be an incredible 

moment.” 

Damien merely replied with another smile. 

After leaving the house, Cherise hailed a cab to meet lan. 

The moment she walked into the cafe, she spotted him seated beside the windows. 

He was dressed casually in white, which made him appear handsome and gentlemanly. 

Cherise waved at him before walking over and taking a seat. “What’s the matter, lan? It seems urgent.” 

Even though she was slightly annoyed that he woke her from her nap, she knew he was a polite. and reasonable person. Hence, she didn’t hold any grudges against him. 

“Well, you see…” Ian took a deep breath before continuing. “Didn’t you bring your husband to Dr. Johnson the other day?” 

She nodded. “Indeed. But he doesn’t seem to be able to cure him…Never mind about that!” 

She finished with a smile, knowing that Damien had consulted a team of specialists abroad and was on track to regain his eyesight within a week. 

“That’s not quite the case.” lan weighed his words carefully as he passed her a cup of coffee. “After the session, Dr. Johnson confided in me privately that there doesn’t seem to be any issues with your husband’s eyes.” 

Cherise froze, her grip on the cup tightening. “What do you mean?” 

1/2 

“It means that he’s not blind. He’s been lying to you all this while.” 

A heavy silence descended upon them. 

With a frown, she asked, “What? You’re saying that… his eyes have been perfectly fine all along and that he’s lying to me?” 

lan nodded gravely. “Yes. It’s not that Mr. Johnson couldn’t cure him-it’s simply because there’s nothing wrong with him in the first place. He’s been lying to you. Cherise.” 

“That’s impossible. Cherise shook her head firmly and smiled back at fan. “You must be quite prejudiced toward my husband, lan. He’s a bad liar, especially to me. We’re husband and wife. there’s no need to lie to each other. Even if he were a liar, I’m sure he would never lie to me.”
