Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 765 Auntie Pat Smitten with Dame

Cherise couldn’t help but recall Heather’s words from their encounter at the lab, “Every woman in Adania, from teenagers to grannies, is crazy about Dainien!”

Suddenly, the Truth of her statement dawned on Cherise. The middle-aged woman beside her, practically drooling over Damien, was a living testament to Heather’s claim.

They soon arrived at the magnificent Miles Manor. Chad hopped out first, leading the way.

Damien followed, instinctively reaching out to help Cherise down from the car. However, he didn’t anticipate Patricia, from the same vehicle, extending her hand towards him as soon as Cherise was out. Damien was caught off guard.

“Let me help you.” Cherise, quick as a whip, stepped in front of Damien, taking Patricia’s hand instead.

Patricia’s expression went from anticipation to disappointment. When she finally released Cherise’s hand, her eyes held a hint of animosity.

Cherise ignored it. Turning to Damien, she took his hand and linked their arms, walking casually towards the Miles Manor.
