Chapter 1195 The Bitter Smile

"It would be ideal if she could move on from Lennon like this," Cherise muttered, her voice edging with frustration.

Pushing Damien away, she stared at him incredulously. "Are you even a friend to Lennon? You stood by and watched as he marched towards his demise without doing anything!?"

Damien chuckled softly, a hint of sadness in his eyes. "During the years without you, life felt empty to me too."

Cherise remained silent, her thoughts tumultuous as she grappled with Damien's words.

"Both you and I can find peace, so why can't they?" Damien asked, his gaze intense.

She often pondered whether Lucy's future would be brighter without Lennon. Yet, upon learning of Lennon's intention to meet his end alongside the Belcourt family, a new wave of anguish washed over her. Was their situation truly beyond repair?
