Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 264

Chapter 264 Quick-Witted 

“I’m not a freeloader.” 

Darien smiled and caressed her hair. “Well, I think Leonard doesn’t have the guts to take your 

money. 

“That’s between you and him. I will pay for my meal-I’m an honest person.” 

“Is that so? Someone who’s honest wouldn’t quietly go to a fancy place without letting her 

husband know.”

The entire room was silent apart from their lover’s squabble. 

Mandy tightened her grip on the glass as she processed the information. 

If she wasn’t mistaken, Damien had a limitless platinum card that was one of the few in the entire world. The cardholder could enjoy VIP privileges of all high-end places in Adania. 

It had an unlimited credit that allowed the holder to spend any amount of money they liked. On top of that, the owner was given access to exclusive privileges. Someone once said enviously that possessing the card would make one feel like a king. 

Damien came to possess that card because his father had once saved an extremely important person, who gave the card as a gift after that. 

I can’t believe that Damien gave this card to the country bumpkin next to him. 

Meanwhile, Lucy was quietly gloating as she noticed the change of expression on Mandy’s face. 

It seems like Damien knows what we want today. He’s deliberately showing his love for Cherise in front of Mandy. 

Cherise turned to Mandy, “I hope you don’t mind, Ms. Wool. We just got married, so we are in our lovey-dovey phase now. We didn’t mean to be rude.” 

“Don’t worry about it. I heard of your background. It must be difficult for people like you to encounter a man of Mr. King’s caliber. Of course, it makes sense for you to cling to him.” she said, taking a sip from her teacup gracefully. 

Her seemingly understanding statement was actually implying that based on Cherise’s countryside family background, she was not a good match for Damien. Hence, her insecurity made her keep a close watch on him at all times. 

This unspoken layer behind her words was apparent to both Cherise and Lucy. 

Halfway through the squabble with Damien, Cherise froze and stopped smiling.

Mandy widened her eyes in shock and covered her mouth in feigned horror “Please don’t get me wrong, Mrs. King. I accidentally blurted everything out because everyone’s been talking about it 

This was another jab at Cherise, telling her that others also had similar thoughts.
