The man shook his head in mild bemusement, a faint smile playing on his lips. “It’s not particularly urgent.”
Cherise’s response was quick and relentless. “Still, let’s give it a listen. What if it’s truly significant?”
“Mr. Whitlock emphasized its importance when he contacted me…”
Unable to dissuade her, Damien closed the bedroom door with a resigned sigh, then proceeded to remove his coat before reclining on the bed, drawing Cherise close into his embrace.

Cherise felt at a loss for words. Gritting her teeth, she began to voice her frustration about Mr. Whitlock. “I thought… I thought Mr. Whitlock, being my former boss, wouldn’t have any ulterior motives…”
Cherise’s face flushed crimson as she tried to grab the recorder. “How does this promote anything?”
