Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234 You Weren’t Willing 

Damien elegantly put his hand on Cherise’s shoulder. The smile on the corners of his lips was cold and taunting. “You avoided her during her toughest time when she needed the help most. You weren’t even willing to encourage her sincerely.” 

“But when I helped her through the hard times, you jumped out to say that I used money to force her to marry me. You’re saying that I didn’t compete fairly with you. How shameless can you get?” 

“I remember that you bought a car. How much did it cost? Sixty thousand.” 

“Cherise’s grandmother’s medical fees also cost sixty thousand.” 

Ian’s complexion ultimately turned pale. 

Cherise pursed her lips tightly. 

She was impressed with that car. 

When she was working at the sanatorium, Ian had driven her home. He flaunted that he had bought the car with his hard-earned money. 

“It’s not that you couldn’t afford sixty thousand. You weren’t willing to. You didn’t think pursuing Cherise was worth sacrificing your lifetime savings, nor did you think her grandmother’s life was worth the money.” 

Damien’s voice was deep and apathetic, but each word was piercing. It penetrated lan’s heart viciously and brutally. 

Back then… 

He did use his savings to buy a car when Cherise needed help most. 

He also thought Mary’s life wasn’t worth sacrificing his money. 

The man’s pale face spoke volumes. 

Damien continued rubbing salt into lan’s wound. “I know you weren’t willing to sacrifice anything for Cherise because you think she’s an easy mark.” 

“She admired you so much. As long as you cared for her and were considerate, she would be obedient and dutiful to you.” 

“Therefore, you were stingy and unwilling to sacrifice anything.” 

“But when she married me, you felt resistant. You felt that she belonged to you in the first place.” 

He looked coldly at Ian’s swollen face. “Actually, you don’t like Cherise. You value yourself and your pride more.” 

1/2 

Cherise’s heart kept constricting as Damien held her in his arms. 

She thought of that helpless night when her pillow was soaked with tears as she held a letter notifying her of her grandmother’s critical health. 

The Lenoir family’s appearance had changed everything. 

She thought of Damien’s respect for her grandmother. 

She recalled everything Damien had done in the Shaw’s village for Uncle Shaw and Aunt Sarah. 

He really… had never considered her or her family members a burden. 

As a businessman, he was willing to invest in the Shaw’s village so that her uncle would feel less aggrieved. 

Compared to lan, who didn’t even talk to her when she was feeling helpless… 

Damien was much better. 

He treated her so well that she thought it was unreal. It made her want to follow him. unswervingly for the rest of her life. 

“Is… Is that true?” 

The girl named Mia took one step back. She looked at Ian, who was silent, in disbelief.
