Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 1036 Bitter Smiles

A sense of unease crept over Cherise at this thought. She bit her lip.

“Mr. Belcourt, I didn’t mean to… You know that I suffer from amnesia. After I lose my memory, I often find myself confused. Somehow, I keep forgetting about social cues and etiquette…”

She turned to him with a sincere gaze. “Please don’t take this to heart. Don’t feel bothered by this. I’ll ask Frances to change this for you…”

Frances pursed her lips as she approached and reached for the half-full plate of pierogies before Lennon, only to be met with his glare.

“Ignore him.”

Damien narrowed his eyes and said plainly, “He has a tendency to blow up like this.”

He glanced at Cherise. “What did Lucy come for?”

“She came to take Alexis with her.”
