Chapter 185 The Ploy
It wasn’t until the evening that Cherise reluctantly left and guided Damien back home.
The Shaw family estate glowed brightly like a beacon in the night.
Ben and Elvis, who were once bitter enemies in the day, were now sharing laughter.
The courtyard bustled with life, filled with the Shaw family, Ben’s family, the village chief’s family, and several other neighbors, all immersed in the joy of food and drinks, creating a lively atmosphere.
Upon Cherise and Damien’s return, Aunt Sarah hurriedly approached with a warm smile. “You’ve finally decided to come back? I’ve saved some delicious food for you. Come inside. and enjoy your dinner!”
Cherise stared in disbelief at the scene before her. “Is this…?”
“The village chief and everyone came to apologize to your uncle. We’re all neighbors; harmony is our priority,” explained Aunt Sarah.
Suddenly, it dawned on Cherise. This was the best outcome!
Her excitement bubbled over. She gently guided Damien back to their room, settled him. down, and stood up. “Honey, can you believe it? Everyone is here. I’m going to help Aunt Sarah. Stay here and enjoy your meal. If you need anything, call me!”
Damien’s eyes softened with a fond smile. “Go, have fun.”
Cherise beamed and planted a quick kiss on his cheek. “I’ll be back soon! Be good!”
Cherise blushed and swiftly darted out of the room.
Damien chuckled, shook his head, and poured himself a glass of water.
Before he could finish the glass, a shadow slipped in stealthily.
The room was illuminated, and Damien immediately spotted the intruder-Vivian sneaking in like a thief.
Vivian checked the room and saw only Damien before sighing with relief.
She tiptoed to Damien’s door and began to undress,
The black silk blindfold covered Damien’s eyes, and he remained seated calmly and sipping his drink. He was seemingly oblivious to Vivian’s performance.
Vivian slowly removed her coat and started removing her dress, revealing her greasy figure.
A hint of disgust flickered in Damien’s eyes beneath the black silk. He knew what she was. attempting but chose not to intervene, deliberately staying silent.
Vivian stood in front of Damien wearing nothing but her underwear as she gazed sensually at Damien for a while.
This man was really handsome, she thought to herself.
Cherise really lucked out!
If she had met this man earlier, even if he were blind or completely paralyzed, she’d still be willing!
Even though she made fun of Cherise’s marriage with her father, she secretly envied their relationship.
She exhaled deeply, then approached Damien cautiously.
She finally mustered her courage, grabbed Damien’s hand, placed it on her chest, and shouted at the top of her lungs, “Help! Someone, help me! R*pe!”
Vivian’s piercing voice reverberated through the entire courtyard.
The village chief hurriedly rushed in with a few people.
Cherise was serving food to a few elderly women.
Aunt Sarah looked around and realized that the commotion was coming from the direction where Cherise and Damien lived.
She quickly approached and pulled Cherise aside. “Hurry, go and check. What if something happened to Damien?”
Cherise hastily put down what she was carrying and rushed into the house..
Vivian was unclothed and was sobbing profusely on the floor as she slurred, “He r*ped
me..
She gestured towards the red marks on her body and wailed, “See, these are the kisses he forced on me just moments ago! I felt a bit cold outside, so I decided to come in and sit for a while. I had no idea this was his room… Who would’ve thought he’d push me onto the brick bed and start…” She broke into sobs, her cries echoing through the room.
Vivian’s voice trembled with a sense of injustice. I originally came here with good intentions to apologize to Cherise. What happened today should never have occurred.”
