Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 411

Message To Cherise

The sturdy padlock on the entrance filled Cherise with a sense of unease. In broad daylight, the locked gates and the eerie absence of any signs of life puzzled her. Had her Uncle returned and wanted to remain unnoticed?

“Uncle! Aunt! Grandma!” She stood at the door, desperately pounding on the iron gates of Shaw Manor.

As the sky began to drizzle, Cherise remained at the gate, her voice now hoarse from shouting.

However, there was no response, and a feeling of unease washed over her, causing tears to well up in Cherise’s eyes.

“Uncle, Aunt, Grandma! Open the gate! It’s me, Cherry! I’m back!… Uncle, Aunt, Grandma!” Cherise’s voice, tinged with a sob, echoed in the rain.

Damien stood by her side, holding an umbrella, and remained silent. He knew she would have to face the truth sooner or later.
