Chapter 918 Too Frightened
Damien''s phone was ringing incessantly. He had tried calling Sebastian multiple times. Many had also attempted to call Cherise
but to no avail. Sebastian said that Cherise was unavable because she was too tired. Those words were suspiciousing
from him.
“Damien.” Maeve stood by the balcony, gazing at the overcast sky in the distance where Damien had been staring. “Still no word
from Cherise?” He shook his head. After a moment, he turned to look at Maeve. “I’ve been overseeing Lenoir Group for a long
time. I’m tired.”
“Damien, please don’t lose hope.” Maeve pursed her lips and went up to him. “Do you know what the public is saying about you
now?” She grasped Damien’s hand and spoke earnestly. “If you relinquish control of Lenoir Group now, others will assume those
rumors are true. They''ll think that you’re upset about your wife sleeping with another man if you willingly give up these assets
that basically fell from the sky. You must remainposed at a time like this.”
“Cherise hasn''t returned yet. You must wait for her to return before making any decisions. You can’t lose yourposure... If
you can’t keep it together, who will Cherise turn to in the future?” Maeve’s words gradually brought a glimmer of hope into
Damien’s bloodshot eyes. He looked at Maeve, “Maeve... do you trust Cherise?”
“How could | not trust my sister-inw?” Maeve pursed her lips. “I believe Cherise wouldn''t be unfaithful, even if it was for your
sake... I''m aware of her stubborn nature. I’m just afraid...” Maeve sighed, gazing at the distant sky. “I fear she may harm herself
because she’s too stubborn and determined...”
Damien''s hands clenched into fists at his sides. He had underestimated Sebastian’s power. He had believed that assigning Mr.
Kolson and ke to protect Cherise would guarantee her safety. It was his mistake.
“Mr. Lenoir!” As he was consumed by regret, Mr. Hampson hurriedly opened the door and rushed to the balcony. “Mrs. Lenoir
and Mr. ke have returned!” After that, the man dressed in ck swiftly dashed from the balcony. Maeve also hurried down the
stairs behind Damien.
Cherise sat on the sofa in the living room downstairs, d in white, fluffy pajamas. She was trembling as she was wrapped in a
thick nket. Beside hery a set of soiled clothes she had worn when she visited Sebastian yesterday. Now, they were torn
