Chapter 247 You’re Too Innocent
Lennon also came over and butt in. “Ms. Fuoco, go home and tell your grandfather that even if he wants to promote his company’s reputation, he can’t do it like this.”
Melanie sneered. She looked up into Damien’s deep and boundless eyes. “As it turns out, you’re so capable, Mr. Lenoir.”
“I thought you were blind for the rest of your life!”
After that, she turned to look at Cherise. “You’re quite brave.”
“Do you know what will happen to women with Damien?”
Cherise pursed her lips. As she reached out and kept her belongings, she glanced at Melanie. “I don’t care.”
“I’ve been married to my husband for over a month. I’m safe and sound and perfectly well.”
As she spoke, she looked up and smiled sweetly at Melanie. “It proves that I’m tenacious. I’m not afraid of anything.”
“Your courage is commendable.”
Melanie smiled and took out a cigarette from her pocket to light it.
Through the cigarette smoke, she looked at Cherise. Damien was putting his arms around Cherise as they planned to leave. “No matter how tenacious you are, you can’t beat someone with a grudge.”
“Do you think Damien’s three late ex-fiancées just died?”
“You’re too innocent.”
“They each died a violent death. A car accident, jumping off a building, getting poisoned.”
“None of them died of natural causes.”
Cherise’s figure froze slightly.
She could vaguely guess what Melanie wanted to say.
It was just as she had expected.
Melanie looked at Cherise from behind as Cherise walked away. “The three women’s cause of death. Someone with a normal intellect would be able to figure out that they were targeted.”
“And your husband, Damien. He was the fiancé to those three women, but he’s indifferent and apathetic.”
Cherise bit her lips and held Damien’s arm tightly.
The woman’s voice behind them grew softer as they walked away. When they were at the entrance, she laughed. “Cherise, I’ll wait to see if he’ll save you when you’re harmed.”
“If he watches on and does nothing, it proves he’s a scum.”
“But if he dares to help you, don’t blame me for taking action.”
“Your life is precious. But my sister’s life is precious too!”
“Mmph! Cough, cough…”
Melanie had just finished speaking when Lennon turned around and picked up a walnut before launching it into Melanie’s open mouth as she was just about to continue.
“You’re too long-winded!”
The man rolled his eyes at her and turned to glance at Damien. “You’re so good-natured. How can you tolerate her ranting?”
Damien continued walking out with his hands around Cherise. “She’s quite pitiful. She lost her relatives, and she can’t take revenge. She can only vent a little like this.”
“So you’re willing to be her trashcan?
Lennon pursed his lips.
“Of course not.”
Damien’s voice was indifferent. “With every word she said against me, her family’s stock prices will fall slightly.”
“From what she said, they will go down ten points.”
Lennon furrowed his brows. He vaguely felt a bad premonition in his heart. “Ten points it is. Why are you telling me?”
“I’m leaving it in your hands.”
“Why are you leaving it to me?! Why should I do such offensive tasks…”
“I’ll pay you ten times your salary.”
“Alright! I’ll do it!”
Lennon’s hands were clenched into fists. “Don’t worry. I’ll settle it!”
“Mm.”
Damien opened the car door for Cherise gracefully. “I haven’t eaten the whole day. Should we go
home or cat out?”
When Damien said it, Cherise recalled that she, Lucy, and Lennon also hadn’t eaten lunch.
“Let’s go out and eat together with everyone.”
