hapter 96 I Trust You
The man must read her thoughts. His large hands closed tightly around her slender waist, and there wasnât a gap between them.
A fiery warmth came from the man, and Cheriseâs heart jolted viciously.
His low, magnetic voice and breath rang in her ears. âDonât worry too much.â
âYou have me.â
The few simple words made Cheriseâs heart instantly calm down.
She reached out her arms subconsciously and put them around his neck. âDarling.â
âI trust you.â
She buried her head in his arms after she said it with flushed cheeks.
The delicate womanâs steady breathing came from his arms shortly.
Damien raised his hands and stroked her soft hair gently. âDummy.â
He had instructed people to investigate her previously.
Due to the circumstances of her birth, her family background, and her submissive. personality, Cherise was constantly bullied and despised.
She was always an outsider in her cla*ses.
After what had happened yesterday, Randall had taken the initiative and suggested transferring everything he had to Cheriseâs name.
Damien didnât turn Randall down..
Because Damien wanted to let Cherise experience how it felt to be valued, have all eyes on her, and become the center of attention.
He thought she would like it.
He never thought the silly girlâs brain worked differently from others.
Others would be joyous at the windfall, but she feared getting hurt.
âCherise.â

He bent down and k*ssed her fragrant hair. Youâre precious.
Early the following day, Bernard came to pick Cherise up in a Mercedes-Benz RV.
She had said yesterday that she didnât want the extended Lincoln, so he had deliberately arranged for the RV to be brought back early in the morning from out of town.
The prominent and conspicuous Mercedes-Benz RV came into view as Cherise pushed
Damien out of the villa.
She rolled her eyes.
She had clearly instructed Bernard yesterday not to pick her up in a vehicle that was too conspicuous.
In the end, he didnât come with the lengthened Lincoln. Instead, he came with this⊠It was still very conspicuous!
She pushed Damien and walked to the RV.
Bernard was briefly taken aback, and the features on his face distorted slightly. âMs. Shaw, are you planning⊠on taking your husband along to the morning meeting?â
The woman who was pushing the wheelchair into the RV raised her brows. âYes.â
âUmâŠâ
Bernard pursed his lips. âItâs your first day running an early meeting for our companyâs employees, so itâs bad luck to bring someone disabled with you.â
âAnd I heard that⊠your husband has been through hardship and attracts badâŠâ
âIn short, heâs unlucky. Do you want to go alone?â
The word âunlucky made Cherise frown viciously.
In her eyes, her husband, Damien, was her irreplaceable lucky star that she couldnât get enough of!
But Bernard had the nerve to say Damien was unluckyâ in front of her?
She looked up and glared at Bernard viciously. If you say one more bad word about my husband, Iâll fire you!â

âQuickly apologize to my husband! Now! Tell him you shouldnât have called him unlucky!â
The girlâs crisp voice was enraged, and she had a furious expression.
With her soft yet incensed voice, she was like a child who wanted to scare others.
Bernard stood stunned in his spot like he was struck by lightning.
Was⊠was this the Cherise he knew?
He had led Cherise around yesterday as they ran all over the office the whole day, and she had no complaints. She had an unusually good nature.
Only one night had pa*sed⊠And she was so fierce?
Damien smiled indifferently and raised his hand to pull her back. âItâs okay.â
âWhat do you mean?!â
