Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 526

Chapter 526 Guess Who I Bumped Into 

“Guess who I bumped into?” 

“Who?” 

“Cherise. 

As the name was uttered, a profound silence ensued on the other end of the line. 

After a moment, Jacob sighed. “You’ve been searching for her for years, and it turns out she has become a doctor in a small town. It does make sense, though. Wasn’t she studying medicine when you two got married?” 

“We were mistaken, assuming she would inherit the Tanner or the Miles’ business. We’ve been investigating in that direction all these years.” 

“Who would have thought that Beckham would actually let her pursue her passion.” 

Damien narrowed his eyes with his gaze fixated on the woman in surgical scrubs. 

It had been five years. 

She had slimmed down, grown, and become even more captivating. 

“That’s all for now.” 

Cherise handed a full page of notes to Charles. If you have any queries, you can find me in my 

office.” 

With that, she turned and left. 

Damien stood less than 15 feet away from her. 

However, Cherise didn’t glance in his direction or notice his presence. 

All she wanted for now was to retreat to her office and get some much-needed sleep. 

After a grueling thirteen-hour surgery, she was exhausted and famished.. 

Once back in her office, Cherise quickly changed her clothes and freshened up. Then, she started nibbling on a sandwich while texting Zachary. “The surgery from yesterday just concluded. 

“Can you help drop the children off at the kindergarten later? 

“My God, Bunny, can’t you take a break?” 

Zachary replied in no time. “You’ve been in surgery since yesterday afternoon!”

‘Yes. It’s a challenging case which is similar to Mom’s back then. 

‘Fortunately, the surgery was a success. 

Aunt Charisa would be overjoyed if she knew.” 

Zachary sent a resigned emoji. ‘But if she knew you were pushing yourself this hard, she would be upset with you.” 

‘Go rest quickly!” 

‘Okay.’ 

Cherise put on a wry smile and continued nibbling on her sandwich. After hanging up the call, she picked up the surgical report and filled in the crucial details. 

Just then, her office door swung open. 

She frowned, and without lifting her gaze, she continued to fill in the report while speaking. “If you’re a patient, please seek assistance at the nurse’s station or the clinic.” 

“If you’re a staff, please refrain from disturbing me. I need to rest.”
