MARRYING THE MAN IN THE DARK - Season 1 Episode 32

But I owe you an enormous favor. If I don’t think about it this way, how should I think about it?”

Damien’s lips curved into a smile when he saw her foolish and silly expression. “You can return the

favor similarly.”

“How?”

“You can bear me a child.”

Cherise was dumbfounded.

Although Cherise had avoided Eriana ambushing her at the school gate yesterday because of Lucy’s

warning, the news of Cherise being with a rich man still spread across campus the next day.

Cressida Moon publicly exposed the major and year of the girl in the post online.

Cherise was the only student from the countryside in her major and year,

A student who liked to gossip compared Cherise’s situation to the female student being provided for in

the post and confirmed that Cherise was the girl mentioned in the post

Cherise had classes the following afternoon.

People pointed to Cherise and talked about her as soon as she entered the lecture hall.

“She looks so demure. I never thought she would be so trashy.”

“That’s what I said. How can Cherise afford to study in our school with her family conditions? As it turns

out, she has a bankroller behind her.”

“How humiliating for our year. Students from other schools laugh at me and say shameless woman in

our year!”

there’s a

The group of students discussed Cherise openly. Cressa, who had witnessed Cherise enter Damien’s

car that day, was leading the conversation.

Cressa glanced at Cherise from the corner of her eye when Cherise entered. “Our classmate who’s

with a rich old man, do you have anything to say for yourself?”

Cherise furrowed her brows. “How do you know I’m with a rich old man?”

Cressa sneered. “Aren’t you? Would someone who drives a Maserati get into an ordinary

relationship with a country bumpkin like you?”

“At most, it’s someone older who wants something different. The rich old man will only provide for you

for a while.”

“Perhaps the person providing for you is an ugly, fat, bald old fart!”

Cressa was saying nasty things, and Lucy, who was at the side, could no longer stand it. “How can you

say such things?”

“If Cherise isn’t with a rich old man, and the man who picked her up that day isn’t old, ugly, fat, or bald,

will you apologize to her?”

Cressa smiled. “If this isn’t the case, I’ll kneel and apologize to her, alright?”

As she spoke, she rolled her eyes at Cherise coldly. “Please quickly show me evidence that you’re

having an ordinary relationship and your boyfriend isn’t an old man.”

“Don’t think of hiring an actor to deceive me. The Lyes family has some power in Adania. I know almost

all the wealthy young men in Adania, but…”

She laughed tauntingly. “I haven’t heard of anyone dating a country bumpkin.“/

Cherise stood on the spot with tightly clenched fists.

Lucy gritted her teeth. “Alright! Wait and see! You’ll be kneeling and apologizing to Cherise soon!”

After that, she pulled Cherise’s hand and sat at the last row of seats in the back of the room.

Cressa was still laughing tauntingly. She maliciously slandered Cherise with a group of classmates.

“How disgusting!”

Lucy glared straight at Cressa. “Does she think she’s a big deal because she’s wealthy? Does she

think she can criticize others because she’s rich?”

Cherise took her books and notes out of her bag. “It’s a big deal to be rich.”

Since her grandmother fell sick, she desired to become wealthy more than anything else.

Now that she was the wife of someone wealthy, she still felt that her life wasn’t real.

“You can’t say that.”

Lucy’s lips twitched. “You must prove her wrong. Ask Damien to come here so Cressa can see for

herself. Then, she’ll kneel and apologize to you!
