Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 443

Chapter 443 A Chip Off The Old Block 

Though not as strong as Mr. Kolson or Blake, she was one of the most skilled female fighters. 

Sage’s cries of pain reverberated throughout the corridor. 

Completely oblivious to her suffering, Beckham took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it. 

“Speaking of Mandy, there’s another matter I need to settle with you, Miss Lenoir.” 

“You should know that we developed the brainwave control chip because many fighters trained by our family betrayed us halfway.” 

“That’s why we created this inhumane device.” 

“To ensure our secrets remain secret and their loyalty remains unquestionable. 

“My father initiated this research during his time. I had always been against it, so even though it was successful, I allowed limited use of it.” 

“Miss Lenoir, do you remember purchasing this chip from us over a decade ago?” 

“You were crying and sobbing, saying you were betrayed by someone you trusted more than anyone. That betrayal started a fire, and your skin was covered in burn scars. You wanted us to sell you the chip for peace of mind.” 

Danielle’s head was bowed. She didn’t dare utter a word. 

Beckham blew a smoke ring. His smile was cold and distant. “But I didn’t know you bought this chip from me to implant it into the mind of a young girl.” 

“When Mandy came to my home, she threatened me with a knife. She asked me why I was aiding the wicked?” 

“Miss Lenoir, how should we resolve this?” 

Danielle bit her lip. 

“This concerns the reputation of the Tanner family” 

Beckham chuckled lightly. “Miss Lenoir, please be mindful of what you say.” 

Danielle gritted her teeth. 

Finally, she exhaled and said, “I apologize for tarnishing the Tanner name.” 

“I’ll let you decide on the punishment.” 

1/2 

One of the reasons she feared the Tanner family was because anyone who had offended them did. not meet a good end. 

Even if they expressed gratitude and were forgiven graciously… 

In the end, none of them escaped punishment. 

This gave rise to rumors of Beckham Tanner hiding a dagger behind his smile. 

Pleading and begging for forgiveness were futile. 

Accepting punishment was the only way to avoid ruthless retaliation. 

“I don’t have the authority to decide that.” 

Beckham gave her a faint smile and tossed her a document. “This is my guarantee to you, and you need to guarantee something in return.” 

“I can let go of the chip matter. I can even turn a blind eye to my daughter.” 

“But from this moment on, if you show any sign of disrespect towards my daughter…” 

“You will hear from me.” 

With trembling hands, Danielle signed the agreement. Sage had also been beaten to the point of losing consciousness.
