Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 340

Chapter 340 Don’t Cause Trouble 

Kareen immediately spoke up, rolling her eyes at Cherise coldly. “It’s her…” 

Before she could finish, Zachary interrupted her. 

The usually apathetic man wrinkled his brows indifferently. He pulled Kareen into his arms, put her in a chokehold, and covered her mouth. “I’m sorry, Mr. Beckham. My sister tends to talk a lot. Please don’t mind her.” 

Then, he pushed Kareen into her seat before looking up indifferently at Gwenn. “Please continue, Ms. Tanner.” 

Gwenn frowned. She didn’t quite understand Zachary’s actions. 

However, Gwenn didn’t publicly question his motives. She assumed he feared tarnishing the Miles family’s reputation by complaining about Cherise. 

She sneered. How cowardly! 

She had previously exposed someone Mr. Tanner was fond of and revealed that the person didn’t care for her grandfather in front of him. She could do it again! 

Gwenn took a deep breath, looked up, and said. “Let me explain, Grandpa.” 

“Mrs. Lenoir, or Cherise Shaw, doesn’t show respect for you and Dad and disregards the family’s rules.” 

“She came to breakfast wearing slippers because you like her, Grandpa.” 

“She must be aware of the Tanner family’s rules…” 

Mr. Tanner’s brows furrowed. He looked at Cherise and asked indifferently, “What happened, Cherise?” 

“Here’s what happened.” 

Damien, who had been silent, spoke nonchalantly. “My wife isn’t used to wearing high heels, but she respected the Tanner family’s request to dress formally during mealtimes, so she deliberately put on heels for yesterday’s dinner.” 

Gwenn rolled her eyes. “I’m talking about this morning!” 

“She had to be well-behaved and proper last night because she wants to gain favor with my grandfather!”

“Since she saw yesterday that Grandpa favors her, she started acting arrogantly today and doing as she pleases!” 

“I’m not!” 

Cherise suddenly stood up after Gwenn finished. 

Her actions were too abrupt, and there was a sharp pain where she had sprained her foot. 

The girl’s complexion instantly paled. 

But she still stood up firmly and seriously. “I wore slippers today because I sprained my foot last night!” 

“It’s still swollen now!” 

Cherise wasn’t someone who sought pity from others. 

But they had gone too far! 

She wore slippers, yet they spoke about her as if she were a convicted criminal! 

“You sprained your leg?” 

Gwenn sneered. The scene of Cherise and Damien having fun in the garden yesterday appeared in her mind, and she frowned. “Are you making up an injury as an excuse?”
