Chapter 78 Where’s My Husband?
“It’s inconvenient for a disabled person like myself to go.”
Damien’s voice was indifferent. “Moreover, the European side will present their annual report to me later. I can’t get away!
Annual report?
Η
Jacob’s hand that was holding the cell phone trembled slightly.
He looked down subconsciously at the calendar. Sure enough, it was that day again.
He sighed. “Alright. I’ll go.”
It was just picking someone up. After all, other than interviewing the doctor downstairs, he didn’t have anything else to do today.
After hanging up, Jacob went down and spoke briefly to lan. After settling on the job and salary, Jacob let Ian leave.
When Jacob drove to the police station, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon.
The police officers instantly seemed moved to tears when they heard that he was there for Cherise. “You’re finally here!”
“Ms. Shaw isn’t admitting her mistakes or apologizing. She keeps making a racket!”
Jacob’s head immediately hurt.
He still remembered the girl’s stubbornness.
Cherise was shut in an office at the end of a corridor.
“Dr. Caldwell?”
Crouching in a corner, Cherise looked up when she heard the sound of the door opening.
Faint and dark bloodstains were still on the woman’s face, but her gaze was still
unbelievably clear.
She rose from the ground. “Why are you here? Where’s my husband?”
She recalled giving the police Damien’s number when they asked for her family’s contact.
“Ahem, ahem. Your husband is currently busy!”

Jacob smiled awkwardly at her.
Cherise’s gaze was still fixed on him.
She clearly didn’t believe him.
It made sense. Damien always seemed to be unoccupied before Cherise.
No one knew that Damien had long been the boss of two rival European financial groups.
“He’s… undergoing vision correction surgery.”
Cherise’s eyes instantly lit up. She rushed forward and hugged Jacob’s arm. “Vision correction surgery?”
“Will my husband’s eyes recover?”
“When will they recover?”
Jacob coughed lightly and pulled her hand off him. “Tell me first. Why did you fight?”
Cherise flattened her lips. “She cursed my husband!”
Jacob was dumbstruck.
“What did she say?”
“She said my husband is a stupid blind man!”
Jacob was once again dumbfounded.
Isn’t it true that Damien’s blind?
“Of course, she also said other nastier things.”
Cherise was honorable. The topic was so vile she couldn’t even repeat it.
The veins on Jacob’s forehead twitched. “So you hit her?”
Cherise nodded. “She forced me to.”
If Cherise had been given another chance, she would still have rushed to hit Cressa.
Jacob looked at the bloodstains on her face and handed her two wet wipes. “Wipe your
face.”

The man sighed and sat down on a chair next to a table. As he looked at her, he cautioned her patiently. “I saw the woman who fought with you when I arrived. Her name is Cressa Lyes, right?”
“She’s tall and strong. Even I might not have been able to beat her. You’re so small and scrawny. You must have been at a disadvantage, right?”
“Your face is even bleeding. I’ll take you to get it cleaned later..
“No need. I’m not hurt.”
Cherise wiped the bloodstains on her face and revealed a clean, fair complexion. “Let’s go. Dr. Caldwell.”
Jacob was speechless from astonishment. “You’re not injured”
“No.”
“So the blood on your face…
