Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 844

Chapter 844 Return To The Research Institute 

Cherise had already informed Mr. Whitlock yesterday that she would return to work today. Yet, here she was, absent for the entire morning

You can go tomorrow,” Damien smiled and gently tousled Cherise’s hair. I’ve spoken to Mr. Whitlock on your behalf.” 

Cherise, holding a bowl of oatmeal, paused slightly. What did you tell him?” 

Damien’s stern voice carried a hint of amusement. I told him that you and I plan to have a third and fourth child. So, you might need to take a day off at home.” 

Cherise was shocked

This scoundrel! How could he embarrass me like that

Cherise held her spoon hesitantly. She had lost her appetite, but she feared he would tease her again if she did not eat

After a while, she reluctantly swallowed the oatmeal. I don’t care. I have to go to work this afternoon.” 

Since the morning was already lost and irretrievable, she could not skip the afternoon either. She refused to let her colleagues and superiors think she was an employee who indulged excessively and kept slacking off from work

Damien shrugged. If you insist on going, I’ll have Mr. Kolson take you there later.” 

He had matters to deal with in the afternoon and could not always stay home with her. Thus, he thought her going to work was also a good choice. At least she would not be so bored

After lunch, Cherise dug out her longunused office clothes. Then, Mr. Kolson sent her to the research institute

The research institute seemed unusually lively today, with flowers and balloons at the 

entrance

Cherise rubbed her temples helplessly and smiled. Her colleagues probably prepared these things to welcome her

Last night, she had seen Heather discussing organizing a welcome party with her colleagues in the WhatsApp group

Cherise felt even more guilty as she thought about this. Her colleagues must have waited for her to return, yet she was late. Thus, she entered the research institute, intending to apologize

When she entered, she saw Heather’s face stained with colorful cake icing

Dr. Shaw?Heather looked at Cherise in shock. Whywhy are you back today?” 

Then, as if fearing others would discover Cherise, Heather quickly pulled her into the stairwell. Aren’t you on vacation for a long time?” 

Cherise was stunned. 1” 

She had informed Mr. Whitlock yesterday that she would end her vacation. Furthermore, Heather and other colleagues were discussing a welcome party in the chat group. How could Heather not know she was coming back
