Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200 Damien’s Past 

Lennon smiled as he looked at the tears streaming down her face. “Is it such a big deal? He only kept a secret from you.” 

Cherise ignored him with a grimace. 

Facing another rejection, he settled into the couch in exasperation and took a picture of her. 

I demand double pay for this.” 

He sent the message to Damien with the picture attached. 

On the other end, the notification reverberated in Damien’s huge, empty mansion. 

Damien was standing by the window, looking in the direction of Lennon’s house as he got lost in his thoughts. 

After a lengthy pause, he finally turned around and picked up the phone. 

Upon seeing the picture of Cherise sobbing her heart out, he caressed the screen and replied, “If you manage to cheer her up, I’ll increase your pay tenfold.” 

What? Tenfold? 

Lennon rubbed his eyes, questioning what he had just seen. 

I’ve never seen him so generous! Is Cherise so important that he would increase my pay tenfold just to cheer her up? 

‘Ha! I’m definitely getting the money!’ Lennon replied, yet he couldn’t help teasing Damien next. Though you appear to be disabled, you’ve been successfully directing numerous companies. abroad and heading various financial corporations in Europe, yet you’re remarkably useless when it comes to your wife. I didn’t use to believe Jacob’s claims that you have low emotional intelligence, but now I’m convinced.” 

‘I’ll take it as you don’t want the money.” 

“Wait, that’s not what I mean! I want the money, of course!” 

With that, Lennon put his phone away and looked at Cherise, who was still sobbing on the couch. 

“There’s a balcony upstairs with a good view. Would you like to have a look? I’ll bring two bottles. of wine along.” 

Cherise thought about it briefly and nodded. 

When they reached the balcony, the rain had already stopped, and the air was crisp. 

1/2 

Lennon set up a table and some chairs, opened the wine, and proposed a toast with Cherise. 

“Why are you so upset? It’s just about his eyes.”
