Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76 A Pricey Dress 

Cherise’s face flushed red. 

She pursed her lips. “He’s my husband. What should I call him if not hubby…” 

The woman’s voice became softer toward the end until it was almost as soft as a 

mosquito’s buzzing. “Besides, we’re a couple. Even if I like him… there’s nothing wrong with it…” 

Lucy did not hear her last sentence. 

When she looked back at Cherise, her food tray knocked into a girl. 

She apologized immediately, yet the other person stayed silent. 

Lucy raised her head. Of all the people, she ran into Cressa. 

The girl who had humiliated Cherise about being a kept woman. Then, she was slapped by her own father in the end. That Cressa Lyes. 

Cressa was wearing a pricey dress today. 

And at that moment, the dress was smothered in sauce from Lucy’s food. 

Lucy put her tray down and pulled some tissue out, thinking of cleaning it for her. Cressa laughed coldly and slapped her. 

“Smack!” The sound rang through the entire cafeteria. 

Cherise had just poured her leftovers away. She raised her head instinctively and was shocked by the scene. 

She quickly rushed toward them. “Lucy!” 

“Hmm, isn’t it Cherise Shaw?” 

Cressa crossed her arms. She ordered people around her to clean her dress while keeping a cold 

eye on Cherise. “No wonder this 

out she has someone behind her.” 

cow has the guts to knock into me. Turns 

The mockery and jealousy in her eyes burned. “I thought some country bumpkin managed to do something well and get some status. I didn’t expect she got some blind. man as a sugar daddy.” 

When Cressa’s father, Randall, came to fetch Cherise home, he warned Cressa not to 

1/3 

disrespect Cherise. 

At that time, Cressa was stunned. She would avoid Cherise whenever they met for the next few days. 

But she heard news that Cherise was working in a sanatorium. 

She began to think that something was amiss. If Cherise had powerful support, why would. she work herself? 

She sent people to investigate, and the truth sounded like a joke! 

That man was her support? 

That blind Lenoir who was cast out from his family over a decade ago? The one who sat in his wheelchair all day long doing nothing terrified her father? 

Her father was overreacting over a disabled person! 

Cherise’s hands on her side slowly curled into fists when Cressa mocked her about the blind man. 

But she did not do anything else. 

After all, Lucy was in the wrong today. 

She glanced at Cressa.
