Chapter 779 Lyra Tries On Wedding Dresses
To Kareen’s surprise, she didn’t feel annoyed when she saw Cherise walk in. Unexpectedly, she found herself
agreeing with Cherise’s question.
“Hold on,” Cherise exclaimed as they left the hospital and got into the car. “What’s the deal with inviting Uncle
Raymond?”
Damien offered a warm smile, gently stroking her hair. “As I mentioned before, I’m hoping to reignite an old flame
of his.”
Cherise furrowed her brow in confusion. “Does he have a connection to someone in the Miles family?”
Damien’s smile remained steady. “Exactly. Remember what Mrs. Miles mentioned earlier?”
A wave of realization washed over Cherise as she gasped, covering her mouth with her hand. “You mean… the man
who pretended to be your father…?”
Damien leaned back, resting his chin on Cherise’s head, his voice low and firm. “Yes, he’s the main suspect. He was
always in a hurry; he looked like me and wore the Lenoir family’s exclusive cufflinks. He used my father’s identity to
live a luxurious life. He was familiar with my father’s business and its secrets.”
“There’s no one else. My father had come to Europe. It wasn’t about causing trouble, but catching Uncle Raymond,
who was living the high life here.”
Cherise nodded, understanding washing over her. “So, Uncle Raymond is indeed a main suspect.”
“That’s why it was crucial for him to attend Zachary’s wedding,” Damien explained, his fingers gently stroking her
hair. “Since Nick cut ties with him and left home years ago, he’s become a recluse. He wouldn’t travel to Ziphon
unless something significant was at stake.”
“But Zachary’s wedding, along with the possibility of a partnership with the Miles family, might be enough to lure
him out.”
With these words, he handed Cherise a new phone. “Take this.”
Cherise frowned, confusion clouding her features as she looked at the device. “Why? My phone works perfectly
fine.”
What was the reason behind this sudden gift?
“This phone has a special mission. Once Uncle Raymond arrives in Ziphon, you’ll use it to arrange a meeting with
Mrs. Miles, pretending to be him. This task won’t be too challenging for a skilled detective like yourself.
“I’m not the right person for this; online scams and con artists are way out of my league. You’d be better off replaceing
someone else,” Cherise said, pushing the phone back towards Damien.
Damien pretended to be concerned. “Do you know anyone who can work their magic on middle-aged women?”
Cherise instinctively shook her head, but then a light bulb went off. “Actually, yes, I do!”
