Chapter 104 She’s Where I Draw the Line
Cherise’s face paled from the pain, and her forehead broke into a cold sweat.
She took each step with difficulty as she went to Damien’s side.
She was even slightly glad that the husband she married couldn’t see anything.
As Damien sat in his wheelchair, his dark and cold gaze stopped on the cold sweat on her forehead.
“What happened to you?”
He asked in a low voice.
Cherise pursed her lips and smiled. Her voice was slightly hoarse, so she deliberately. raised it so it wouldn’t sound so miserable. “Nothing”
“I just met Lucy downstairs…”
Blood trickled out from her worn-out jeans.
Damien’s eyes flashed wildly behind the black silk!
He pulled Cherise into his arms the next moment and held her lower jaw. “Tell me the truth.”
Did she want to hide something like an injury from him because she thought he was. blind?
Many people were in the meeting room.
Everyone there who had returned from abroad was the cream of the
crop.
When they saw Damien hugging Cherise, they bent their heads in succession. They either signed their names on documents or wrote proposals as necessary.
The meeting room instantly rang with rustling noises of people working.
Cherise’s face burned.
She pursed her lips. “I’m really okay…”
When she looked around and glanced at the employees working earnestly, she felt slightly uncomfortable, “Put me down…”
The employees were working hard while on a break from the meeting, but as the boss, she was flirting with her husband…
“Blake.”
Since she wasn’t saying anything, the man spoke coldly to the young teen on one side. “What happened?”
Blake was startled. He repeated everything that had happened in full detail. “A bad woman wanted to hurt Cherry.”
“I saved Cherry, but she got hurt.”
Damien’s
gaze
darkened. “Where is she hurt?”
“Her lower left leg.”
The man’s large hands grabbed Cherise’s lower left leg precisely.
Although the wound was bandaged, blood was seeping out, perhaps because she was moving too much.
“Did you notify Mr. Hampson?”
Blake nodded. “Yes.”
“Find a doctor to bandage it.”
“Greg.”
Damien called out Mr. Hampson’s name coldly.
“Mr. Lenoir…”
Mr. Hampson was terrified.
“Why didn’t you tell me? Why did you get a doctor to bandage her wound without my permission instead?”
The man’s voice was icy and deep. Mr. Hampson’s figure shivered violently. “I saw that you were in a crucial part of the meeting, so…”
“So you decided on my behalf?”
The man let out a pompous laugh. He raised his hands to tap the long table in the meeting room.
“Everyone.”
As his voice rang, everyone put down what they had in their hands and looked up respectfully at him.
“This is Cherise Shaw,”
The man’s hands hooked around Cherise’s slender waist tightly. “I hope you can remember this name and face.”
“Because she’s where I draw the line in the future.”
The meeting room was momentarily silent.
A few seconds later, deafening voices rang in the meeting room. “Alright! We’ll keep it in
mind!”
Cherise was taken aback.
She felt shy and astonished, and her face flushed a crimson red. She struggled and wanted to leave Damien’s arms.
“Don’t move about!”
The man warned her in a low voice.
But Cherise still instinctively wanted to leave his embrace.
There were so many people in the meeting room!
How embarrassing…
She struggled for a while when there was a sudden pain in her leg.
The woman’s paled face froze. She stopped moving.
Damien looked down and saw the cold sweat her forehead broke into because of the pain.
