Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 773

Chapter 773 Cherise’s Recording 

“But then, he suddenly opened his eyes and asked me why I kept doing this. He admitted that he had known all along that I was secretly nurturing and caring for him.” 

“He asked if I wanted to be with him… I shook my head and tried to escape, but he pulled me back,” the girl narrated, her face slowly turning red. “It was a first for both of us that night…” 

“After he had sobered up from the alcohol the next day, he proposed to me and asked for my hand in marriage…” 

“I wasn’t sure if he just wanted to take responsibility for being the first man I slept with or… if he saw me as your replacement, but I accepted.” 

“After that… the car accident happened.” Lyra looked up at Cherise sincerely. “Cherise, I’ve been honest with you. I haven’t lied to you at all… Can you help me…” 

Cherise was surprised. Everything Lyra had shared was completely unexpected. 

She pursed her lips. “So, are you still determined to marry Zachary?” 

“Mm-hmm!” The girl nodded earnestly. “He was the one who proposed to me. I didn’t force him to do it! I’m prepared to marry him. I’ll stay by his side even if he never wakes up.” 

“I used to only be able to admire him from a distance, but now I can finally be close to him, even if he’s unconscious. I don’t want to miss this opportunity!” 

She took out her phone and played an audio clip recording of her and Zachary. 

“Zach! I’m so happy! Can… can I have you repeat it into my phone?” 

“Sure.” Zachary’s voice in the recording was cold yet polite. “Do I just speak normally?” 

“Yes…” 

“Alright. Ms. Lyra Quinnell, I, Zachary Miles, am proposing to you today. I hope you will marry me and stay with me for the rest of my life. Will you marry me?” 

“I will! I will…” 

The recording abruptly ended. 

After playing the recording, Lyra looked at Cherise hopefully. “If I use this recording to register our marriage, will others think I’m foolish?” 

“Absolutely not.” Cherise smiled. “You’re incredible.” She had to admit that she was moved by Lyra’s deep affection. So, this girl… has silently loved Zachary for many years. 

Cherise had known Zachary for many years and knew he wasn’t impulsive. Since he had proposed to Lyra, he must have thought it through. 

Taking a deep breath, she stood up, grabbed Lyra’s hand, and pulled her towards the door.
