Chapter 724 My Presence Is Unnecessary
The doctors looked at each other before swiftly moving into the emergency room.
Upon seeing the doctors enter. Ursula quickly followed suit âWeena! Youâre finally consciousâ After a brief moment, Ursulaâs elated voice echoed from within âBoohoo! You gave me such a frightâ
Damien smiled faintly at Cherise when he heard the womanâs voice inside. âHow are you to amazingâ
âHeart diseases require the proper medicine Cherise looked up and flashed him a radiant smile. âAre you
going in**
Damien narrowed his eyes as his lips curled into a sneer. âIf itâs a heart ailment, my presence is unnecessaryâ
He trusted this woman more than the Mortis sisters. She was the mother of his two children and his lifelong companion.
Furthermore, it seemed like Rowena and Ursula were crossing more boundaries since Cheriseâs return. Damien had no tolerance for people like them who meddled in his professional or personal affairs without knowing their place. Even if Rowena had once saved his life, it didnât justify her repeatedly and recklessly intruding into his life.
Thus, the man whispered a few words to the people beside him before draping his arm around the womanâs shoulder. âLetâs return and continue our meal.â
Tve had enough. Cherise took a deep breath. âWhere are the children?â
âFrances took them home for dinner. Damien pulled out his phone and showed her a picture. In the photo, the two children slept peacefully on a pink bed.
The manâs deep voice was tender. âSince neither of us was home, Serafina fussed for a while. As her older brother, Soren took the initiative to coax her to sleep.
Cherise pursed her lips and carefully studied the two children in the picture as a wave of affection washed over her. Her son had always been thoughtful, and her daughter was always endearing.
She took a deep breath and put down the cell phone. âSince the kids are fine, take me back to the research.
institute.â
Damien furrowed his brows slightly. âThe research institute?â
âMm. I need to collect some things. Cherise shrugged nonchalantly. âI just started working today. Iâve claimed to have made significant contributions to cardiac surgery, and Iâm currently receiving such a generous salary. I must show everyone how competent I am to silence those who might resent me.â
Damien hugged her. âYou can do it tomorrow,â
Cherise looked at him helplessly. âDamien, after the scene you caused today, do you think I can have a peaceful day at work tomorrow?â She took a deep breath and looked at him. âAre you taking me to the research institute or not?â
âIf youâre not, Iâll go by myself. The woman promptly left his arms and headed towards the door.

Damien frowned. Left with no other option, he could only follow her. âWhy canât you work tomorrow?â
Cherise pouted and recalled what her female colleague had said to her at the research institute. âItâs Damien Lenoir! Do you know Damien Lenoir?!â
âHeâs the man that all women in Adania dream of marrying, regardless of how old they are!â The woman sighed, mimicking her colleagueâs admiring tone. âI wonder who he fancies. If I knew who he was confessing his feelings to, I would definitely interrogate that woman to see how she snagged such an eligible bachelor like Damien!â Cheriseâs imitation was spot on. She even replicated her colleagueâs expression.
Damien was dumbstruck. âActually, Iâm not that popular with women, IâŠâ
