Chapter 71 Mr Lenoir

Lila rolled her eyes; after all, who was not aware of the Lenoir family? They were the wealthiest family

in Adania, with business spanning over various industries. However, wasn’t the casanova, Tristan, the

eldest son of the Lenoir family? What had this blind man. got to do with the Lenoir family?

The supervisor whispered, “This is the other son from the Lenoir family. Were you expecting David to

bow down to any Tom, Dick, and Harry? You could have poked. anyone, but you chose to poke this

bear? And you even forced his wife to handwash her bed sheets? Did you know that on the first day

Cherise got married, a silly worker who failed to tame her tongue was flogged to death?”

Lila was shocked to the point that she almost collapsed. Cherise was held back by David just as she

started pushing Damien out. “Mr Lenoir, well… Just because of the incompetencies of some of my

employees, it is rather unfair to burn the bridge between.

Cherise frowned as she gazed upon David. “You are the manager of this sanatorium?” David was

pretty excited that Cherise was willing to engage in negotiations. That’s right! I

manager!” Cherise clenched her jaws, “Well, for starters, the washing machine has been down for a

long period.” She was sincere in her suggestion, “If you are the manager, please get it fixed as soon as

possible; the bedsheets around here are tough-handwashing them is not only exhausting, it definitely

does not thoroughly clean them.” As she spoke, her vision shifted towards the corner that was

inundated with bedsheets. “I am pretty sure that the sanitizing effect of a washing machine is superior

compared to hand washing” A a sanitorium, cleanliness and sanitization should be expected, not a

luxury, right?

Beads of sweat were visibly forming on David’s forehead when he was confronted with their

incompetency.

Damien lifted his hand as his fingers drummed on his chair’s leather arm support. “Unable to repair a

broken washing machine nor carry out proper sanitization…” His smirk was a terrifying harbinger, “Well,

I believe it is only right for this sanitorium to be shut down for maintenance for a few months. After all, it

should not be too much to ask for an operating washing machine and proper sanitization to be in

business.”

Blood was completely drained from David’s face at this point. A few months?! His long- time customers

would definitely all have shifted elsewhere! Even a week of non-operation would be unimaginable! He

wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead and pleaded, “No, there’s no need for such trouble! I will

get someone to fix it right away! All I need is an hour!”

“Wow!” Damien chuckled, his low rumble sending a chill down everyone’s spine. “If all it took was an

hour, why was everyone unresponsive all this while? Did you consider my wife to be an easy target, so

you had her hand wash everything?” He lowered his head and.

sighed, “This is such an amazing place. I would not even let Cherise wash a single handkerchief back

at my place, worried that she would be exhausted.”

David shuddered as he contemplated whether he should kneel before Damien. Damien’s encrypted

message was clear as day. Cherise was considered royalty within the Lenoir family; the fact that

Cherise never had to do any washing with the Lenoirs, but the sanitorium got

her to handwash the bed sheets! David was visibly shaken. “This… Mr. Lenoir, I was fully unaware! I

was not aware that your beloved would be working here, nor… If I knew that she was your wife, I would

have never let her hand wash it!” David’s statement did not sit well with Cherise.

“Even if it was not me, I do not think handwashing is acceptable, we cannot guarantee the cleanliness

level…” David stammered, “I, I misspoke, I did not know anyone was handwashing, if I knew…”

Cherise was confused by his statement, “But Lila told me that. the reason why the washing machine

was still broken was because you had yet to contact anyone for repairs rights?” David was rendered

speechless by Cherise’s honest naivety. Lila was simply destroying any escape routes he had!
