Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 10 Don’t Bully My Husband!

Cherise’s hands shook slightly as she held Damien’s wheelchair.

Damien’s words prompted her to realize something. None of the servants bothered to come to them since they entered Lenoir Residence.

She looked at Damien’s chiseled facial features under the dim moonlight and felt pity for him.

His cousin, Tristan, bullied him because of his disability and molested his wife right before his

eyes.

Furthermore, his aunt and uncle mocked him, never treating him with respect.

As for his grandfather…

Previously, Cherise thought Damien’s grandfather cared about him. Otherwise, why would he be concerned about Damien getting married?

However, she witnessed how coldly Old Mr. Lenoir treated Damien in Lenoir Residence. Thus, she believed Old Mr. Lenoir also disliked Damien.

She could not help but feel sad as she thought about this.

Damien lost his closest family members from a young age. Furthermore, his other relatives mistreated him. It must have been heartbreaking for him…

Cherise instinctively reached out and gently held his cold hand.

His hand trembled slightly, jolting her to her senses.

She withdrew her hand abruptly as if scalded. Still, she said firmly, “I’m your family now, and I’ll always be with you.”

Damien appeared bewildered for a second.

He turned to Cherise and looked at her through the ribbon over his eyes.

Cherise thought he did not hear her properly.

Thus, she repeated in earnest, “Although we… have only been married for one day, I’m not like them. I will be loyal to you. Even if you’re cursed, I’m not afraid. I’ll always be with you.”

Damien chuckled silently. “Come here.”

Cherise went to him obediently and was suddenly pulled into his embrace.

His breaths gently brushed against her neck, making her feel ticklish.

He held her with one hand and used his other hand to tuck her hair behind her ears gently. “Are you sure you’re not afraid?”
