Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 409

Chapter 409 Hitching A Plane Ride. 

“In the afternoon, we’ll go see your uncle,” he suggested, noticing Cherise’s slightly swollen eyes. “You wouldn’t want your Uncle to see you like this, right? How about using a warm compress, and once you’re feeling better, we’ll head over, okay?” 

Cherise hesitated for a moment but then nodded in agreement. 

She hurried upstairs, holding a towel soaked in hot water. Just as she placed it on her eyes, her phone started ringing. It was a call from Zachary 

He seemed to be in a noisy and crowded place. 

“Hey, Bunny!” The voice on the other end of the line was still clear, with a hint of playfulness, 

Cherise pursed her lips. “Hmm.” 

Honestly, she was grateful to Zachary for what happened the previous day. When she was in the study at the Wool Residence, Maeve’s words had deeply affected her. 

At that moment, she genuinely believed that she wasn’t good enough for Damien and that breaking up with him was the best option. 

Fortunately, Zachary arrived just in time. He gave her a firm shake on the shoulders and used comforting words to help her overcome her profound sorrow. 

It was he who reminded her of the love she shared with Damien. 

Cherise took a deep breath, her tone somewhat playful. “What’s up?” 

Before, when Zachary annoyed her, she often found him irritating. She had even suspected that Zachary might have hidden motives, especially with the somewhat ambiguous term ‘Bunny’ he used to address her. 

But now, Cherise felt she might have judged too quickly. 

Zachary wasn’t as carefree as he seemed on the surface. At least, in a real crisis, he could be relied

“I want to bid you farewell.” 

The man chuckled softly. “Hearing your cheerful voice, I guess everything is good now, right?” 

“God knows how easily influenced and gullible you are, Bunny!” 

Cherise blushed a little. She smiled and asked, “Are you leaving now?” 

“Yeah.”

Zachary grinned, I’m currently at the airport.” 

“I’m here on a mission to bring someone back, and I’ve already found that person, so I won’t have time to join you in your studies this time.” 

“But, if you ever want to see me in the future, you’ll have to score perfectly in all your final exams; otherwise, I won’t pay you a visit!” 

Cherise pursed her lips. “I’ll be back in Adania in a few hours.” 

“Are you leaving already? I won’t be able to see you off…” 

“No need to see me off.”
