Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 41

Chapter 41 Why Aren’t You Home Yet

Cherise initially wanted to turn him down, but she thought of what he had previously said and ultimately nodded in agreement

It was lunchtime, and the restaurants near the hospital were crowded

Ian took Cherise to a restaurant slightly further away

The afternoon sun was blazing above them. Ian was considerate and bought an umbrella by the side of the road to shield Cherise from the sun

You’re so attentive, Ian.” 

She smiled, feeling moved

Ian laughed lightly. It’s only natural to take care of you.” 

The man’s words made Cherise blush

But why were you at the hospital?” 

Ian’s distinct and bright voice was like a clear spring on a summer’s day. You said you came with your friend last time. What about this time?” 

I came to visit my relative.” 

Cherise and Ian walked under the umbrella side by side. Her heart started to beat furiously. Ian.” 

Hmm?” 

I remember you previously told me that when you were in university, you made a lot of money from working parttime jobs, right?” 

She had agreed to eat with Ian because she remembered this

You’re looking for a job?” 

Jan laughed lightly and reached out to stroke her head. You still work so hard.”” 

Cherise smiled and lied. I want to earn money to pay for my school fees.” 

The man’s brows furrowed. You’re paying for your school fees?” 

Doesn’t your husband take care of you?” 

He was startled when he found out that she had gotten married. But when he thought about it, she would have someone to take care of her after getting married. It wasn’t bad for a girl like Cherise with such a family background

But now, she wanted to earn money to pay her school fees

Cherise was surprised and immediately shook her head. “It’s not that he doesn’t take care of me” 

I just want to earn money to sign up for cooking classes. I don’t want my husband to know. I want to surprise him.” 

Ian’s brows slowly relaxed

He laughed bitterly. It looks like you love him a lot.” 

Cherise nodded with flushed cheeks. So, do you have any good parttime jobs to recommend, lan?” 

lan looked up and saw the signboard before him. We’re here. Let’s eat first and talk later.” 

Cherise could only nod as she followed him into the restaurant

She was preoccupied when they were eating

Her mind was filled with what had happened when she previously ate with Ian

The last time she ate with lan, Damien found out at once

Does he know this time?Will he call me and instruct people to capture me like last time

Cherise was fearful until she finished lunch, but Damien didn’t contact her

Since you’re majoring in nursing, I can recommend a sanatorium where you can work parttime as a nursing assistant.” 

After lunch, Ian scrolled through his cell phone. I have a friend who’s working at the sanatorium. Many nursing assistants work there parttime, and the pay is pretty good, but the job is quite demanding.”
