Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 752

Chapter 752 They’re Grateful to You 

Lyra’s courageous affection touched Cherise, but she could not ignore the gravity of the situation. As Zachary’s friend, she was reluctant to see Lyra sacrifice her future for him. 

“But she is determined to be with Zachary.” Damien looked ahead. His voice was steady and unwavering. “Do you know why I agreed to help her?”

Since coming to Adania, she had only worked for a day and had been on leave since. She worried what people at work would think now that she had to extend her leave. 

The following day, Cherise nervously requested leave from the institute. 

“It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.” To her surprise, Mr. Whitlock, her supervisor, was very understanding. “Cherise, feel free to extend your leave if you have matters to attend to. Just make sure to submit your papers punctually every month.”

Caught off guard by Mr. Whitlock’s kind gaze, Cherise was flattered and confused “Won’t the other colleagues resent me for being on leave for so long
