    Chapter 760 Truth and Truth


    “Lenn will take care of her, don’t worry,” Damian reassured Cherise.


    Cherise scowled. “No way! I don’t trust him!”


    “But think about it,” he continued. “You only noticed Lucy’s difort from her gestures, while Lennon


    could tell from her posture alone. That’s the difference between you two. Do you still think he’s


    incapable of caring for her?”


    Cherise pursed her lips, speechless for a moment.


    Noticing Cherise didn’t chase after Lennon and Lucy, Heather rushed over, snuggled into her arms,


    whining. “Cherise!! Waaaah, what should I do? Even Lennon has his princess charming now… What


    am I supposed to do?”


    Cherise was dumbfounded by Heather’s childish and flirty response. She rolled her eyes, pursed her


    lips. and thought, “Duh, how would I know?”


    However, holding Heather in her arms, Cherise felt a sense of relief. Relief that Lennon wasn’t the type


    to abandon Lucy for a new acquaintance. He still chose to stay with Lucy in the end!


    After a brief interruption, the banquet continued in full swing. Damien was right. This banquet had


    indeed. closed the gap between Cherise and her colleagues.


    Initially, everyone was reserved, but as the night progressed, they even invited Cherise and Damien to


    y.


    Truth or Dare.


    While Cherise excelled in academic research, this type of game was unfamiliar territory. She


    consistently lost, so she cautiously opted for Truth each time.

    “When did you start having feelings for Mr. Lenoir?” Heather asked excitedly, resting her chin on her


    hands.


    Seated on the sofa, Damien also observed her with a hint of interest.


    Cherise blushed but answered truthfully, “I think it was about five years ago.”


    A collective gasp filled the room. “Five years! That’s a long time!”


    “Cherise, you’ve liked Mr. Lenoir for that long?”


    Cherise nodded, her face burning, “Yes…”


    The next round of Truth or Dare rolled around, and it was still Cherise’s turn. Mr. Carlos, his curiosity


    piqued, asked, “So, what do you find so appealing about Mr. Lenoir?”


    Cherise thought carefully for a moment, then blushed deeply as she confessed, “Well, everything, I


    guess?”


    But the yful jabs didn’t stop there. The group bombarded her with questions about her first kiss, their


    first night together, and their most recent encounter.


    Cherise wasn’t exactly an open book. Discussing such intimate details, especially in front of her male


    colleagues, waspletely out of herfort zone.


    Flustered, she lowered her head, stammering and unsure how to respond.


    Just then, Damien intervened, gently pulling her into his embrace and kissing her forehead. “Alright,


    guys, give her a break. My Cherry gets shy easily. If you scare her away and she refuses to y with


    me, I’ll hold you all personally responsible.”


    Their yful banter continued, the teasing veiled in ambiguity. Cherise’s face burned even hotter. She


    nestled deeper into Damien’s arms, too embarrassed to lift her head.


    “You can ask me instead.” Damien offered, his voice deep and calming. Everyone exchanged nces,


    a little hesitant. Cherise was their colleague, so they could be informal. But Damien….


    Finally, Heather braved a question, “Mr. Lenoir, when did you start having feelings for Cherise?”


    Damien replied smoothly, “The moment she started having feelings for me.”


    After a lively and entertaining evening with the bunch, Cherise hummed a happy tune on the way


    home.


    Damien watched her from the driver’s seat, his gaze filled with love and admiration. “Still floating on


    cloud. nine, I see?”
