Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 1053 The Looming Threat

Sebastian's swift release sent shockwaves through her, and his calls echoed with a newfound ferocity.

And the women he singled out in his accusations...

Today, she discovered Savannah and remembered Lucy and her father's past mention of affection.

So, who exactly was Heather?

Did she have any more female friends that she couldn't remember?

Just then, her phone buzzed with a photo from Sebastian, taken by Trent from a selfie perspective.

In the background, a mysterious figure sat, their head lowered and their features hidden. However, their wedding dress bore a

striking resemblance to Savannah's earlier that day.

The photo cwith a chilling message from Sebastian: "In just two days, she'll be in my bed."

"I'm sure you wouldn't want your friend to suffer, would you? So why not cand take her place in my bed?"

Sebastian's words ignited such fury in Cherise that she almost dropped her phone.

Damien's phone call was an update from his subordinate regarding Sebastian's location: "He's headed to the city next to

Shawbury, Calais, and has already secured accommodations."

"Mr. Lenoir, I just spotted him making a call in his room... Should we intercept the signal?"

Damien's gaze hardened. "No need."

"He's too smart for that. If we intercept, he'll sniff it out in no time."

"Your job now is to stick to him like glue, don't let him catch wind of anything." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"Got it."

After the call, Damien tasked someone with investigating Savannah and Trent's whereabouts.

Although these two individuals had no ties to him, Savannah had been Cherise's close friend and had aided her in escaping a car

accident.

Even without Cherise saying a word, he knew the innocent girl would be drawn into this mess.

So he handled it quietly.

Once everything was set, he headed back to the hotel.

"Mr. Lenoir."

As Damien strode into the lobby, the butler rushed over to him. "Ms. Shaw needs to see you right away. She asked for you."

He furrowed his brow. "What's wrong?"

"Ms. Shaw... she's quite upset," the butler sighed.

"She got a call from Sebastian about Savannah..." he trailed off.

Damien's eyes flashed with a hint of rage. "Sebastian..."

He remembered what his subordinate had mentioned on the phone earlier. "Sebastian was seen making a call..."

With that thought in mind, he brushed past the butler, ascended the stairs, and entered the room.

Cherise stood by the door, awaiting his arrival.

As Damien crossed the threshold, she flew into his embrace, her arms encircling his neck with fervor. With a gentle tilt of her head,

she pressed her lips against his in a tender, passionate kiss—a moment where their hearts beat as one in the throes of affection.

The sudden gesture momentarily took aback the man. "Cherry..."

"Don't say anything, just kiss me," she whispered urgently, her voice filled with longing.

Cherise's face was pale, her breathing erratic. "Damien, kiss me, quickly," she implored, her eyes filled with desperation and

desire.

Damien's silence echoed loudly in the room, his eyes speaking volumes as they met hers.

What had gotten into her?

Taking a deep breath, he firmly held her hand, gently prying the woman who clung to him away. "Mr. Hampson mentioned you

received a call from Sebastian and were very emotional."

"You urgently requested him to bringback..."

His gaze, as intense as a storm gathering on the horizon, pierced her. "Just for this?"

Cherise pursed her lips, reluctant to divulge too much. Her sole focus now was to regain her memory as quickly as possible.

She refused to be exploited!

She demanded to understand the importance of these friends!

She yearned to rediscover the loved ones she had forgotten!

She was determined to protect them at all costs!
