Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 29 Why Did You Come Back?

Cherise never imagined that the person she had saved at the expense of offending Damien would turn around and press her against the ground.

Her throat was viciously choked. She wanted to struggle but couldn’t find the strength at all.

“Wench! If I knew you were so vengeful, I would have taken advantage of you back then! Perhaps you wouldn’t have looked for a man outside to harm me!”

Nicky grew angrier as he spoke, and he exerted more force.

Cherise was pinned under him and couldn’t even make a noise to shout for help.

In the end, her vision started to get fuzzy.

As everything started to get hazy, she had a thought. If she died, was it Damien’s fault or her fault?

She wanted to spare Nicky’s life since they were relatives, but she never thought he would be so ungrateful.

Just as Cherise thought she would die, a navy blue dart landed firmly on Nicky’s hand.

At the next moment, a whip was flicked from the direction of the rooftop’s doors. It hit Nicky, and he lay on the ground howling.

After escaping Nicky’s control, Cherise turned over and covered her neck as she coughed incessantly.
