Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) Novel
Chapter 291

Chapter 291 She Is Safe with Him

A few guys drunkenly patted Rodney’s shoulder and laughed “Your girlfriend is so beautiful. Make sure

to watch her properly! Don’t let another man snatch her from you!”

“That’s right!”

Another guy poured more beer for Rodney. “Have you slept with her?”

Rodney frowned and shook his head.

The group of men laughed. “Didn’t you say you’ve been dating her for half a month? Why haven’t you

slept with her?”

“She doesn’t want to.

Rodney drank his beer solemnly. Ilis expression was marred with worry. “She said it’s too early. She will

only do it once we’re married.”

The group of men laughed. “If she refuses to marry you, won’t you suffer a huge loss?”

“That’s right. You will have taken care of her for nothing

Those men kept edging Rodney on. A few even suggested ways to drug Lucy so that he could sleep

with her.

However, Rodney rejected all their suggestions. “I. I will get her to accept me eventually. Then, she will

sleep with me willingly.”

Cherise witnessed everything from upstairs. Although Rodney made the correct decision. Cherise was

disturbed by what those men said.

“Why is he friends with these people?”

Damien swirled the wine in his glass and sneered, “He’s willing to befriend such people. Furthermore,

when they said he should have made Lucy sleep with him, he did not become outraged or try to refute

them.”

He sipped his red wine and continued, “This proves that even though he didn’t do as they suggested,

he also didn’t think they were wrong.”

Damien elegantly placed the glass on the table. “Men like him are unworthy of Lucy”

Cherise agreed with Damien’s explanation. “But I’ve tried to persuade her many times. She refused to

listen…”

“She said she won’t suspect Rodney now that she has decided to be his girlfriend…”

“It made sense”

Damien shook his head calmly. “She’s acting rashly because someone broke her heart. That’s why

she’s like this.”

“Let’s observe her for now. Let me know if this man attempts anything

Cherise nodded. “I will.”

Then, she wrapped her arms around Damien’s neck and kissed him. “You’re the best!”

Lucy was Cherise’s friend, not his.

Yet, he was willing to care about Lucy’s well-being with her. The gesture touched Cherise.

After all, no one would care about someone unrelated to them.

Still. Damien willingly cared about people close to Cherise for her sake.

Damien chuckled and embraced her. “Since you think I’m the best…”

He moved closer to her ear and whispered in a deep and suggestive tone, “We should enjoy some

whipped cream cakes at home later.”

He deliberately emphasized the word ‘whipped cream.

Cherise’s face instantly turned red.

She recalled the way he ate whipped cream from her body that day…

She bit her lip. “No!”

“You don’t get a say in this.”

Damien chuckled and kissed her cheek. He got up and started walking with her in his arms.

Cherise struggled to get down. “Shouldn’t we say goodbye to Lennon?”

Lennon was paying full attention to the crowd downstairs.

“He won’t hear us even if we say goodbye.”

Damien shrugged. He noticed Lennon clenching his fists tightly. “We might as well go home to enjoy

cakes.”

“Lucy is very safe with him here.”

Cherise frowned and glanced downstairs as they were leaving.

Rodney sat with his group of friends, drinking sullenly.

Cherise pursed her lips as she looked down disapprovingly at his friends, feeling uncomfortable
