Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175 A Rumored Reality 

Even though they could assist the restaurant owner during their stay, Vivian and her entourage might become even more problematic once they leave. Cherise knew she couldn’t stay here to offer help, leaving her regretful. 

Damien keenly observed Cherise’s downcast expression and glimpsed a layer of profound emotion in her eyes. 

Upon returning to the car after their meal, Cherise’s spirits were still low. However, as the car gradually approached the small village she once called home, the young woman’s excitement couldn’t be contained. Eagerly, she began introducing the area’s geography to everyone, anticipating the reunion with her family. 

Finally, as the car passed a massive willow tree, they arrived at Cherise’s uncle’s home, Elvis Shaw’s residence. 

The moment the car came to a stop, the young girl hastily exited and dashed into the yard. 

It was a little 

past two in the afternoon, and Mary Dawson was basking in the sun by her wall. Beside her, her daughter-in-law, Sarah, was sorting out the soles of her shoes. 

“Grandma! Aunt Sarah!” 

The young girl’s excited voice reverberated crisply through the yard. 

Sarah and Mary raised their heads, witnessing Cherise sprinting towards them. They couldn’t help but break into smiles. 

Cherise threw herself into the arms of the kind-hearted old lady. “Grandma! I’ve missed. you so much!” 

The old lady patted her back lovingly and asked, “Why are you back suddenly?” 

“I missed you, so I came back!” 

Sarah also smiled and asked, “Did you come back alone?” 

“No!” 

Cherise beamed and lifted her head, pointing towards the door. “I brought my husband with me!” 

Sarah looked in the direction of the door and noticed Damien, who was seated in a wheelchair, being pushed by Blake.

Her complexion paled instantly. “Cherise, why did you bring the young master of the Lenoirs here?” 

Cherise was taken aback, realizing that Sarah’s response was far from welcoming. “My husband has never been to the countryside before. I just brought him along…” 

Sarah looked at Damien from a distance, her expression somewhat unpleasant, and she lowered her voice. “Ben from next door recently had a falling out with your uncle. He’s been spreading rumors in the village, claiming that your uncle couldn’t resolve his issues. until he married you off to a disabled person.” 

She gazed at Cherise reproachfully. “Why didn’t you give us a heads-up? The whole village has been making fun of our family lately. Your uncle has been isolating himself at home. due to this situation. Bringing Mr. Lenoir here now, aren’t you adding to the chaos?” 

Ben was Vivian’s father. 

Sarah’s explanation clarified why Vivian had caused trouble when they were in town. Cherise pursed her lips. “What should we do then?” 

Damien had taken the time to accompany her back. Cherise was too excited to anticipate the potential problems at home. In the countryside, rumors spread much faster than in the city. Being constantly pointed at and talked about by everyone was undeniably uncomfortable.
