Chapter 434 I Don’t Care If He Loves Me
Danielle narrowed her eyes and glared at Cherise. The harshest punishment for attempted. murder on a spouse… would probably be the death penalty.
“Once she’s dead, Damien would, of course, marry you.”
Cherise’s eyes widened, “You-!”
She calmed herself down after the initial shock.
“So you were the one behind Damien’s attack.”
The only reason Danielle would be so sure of her success in framing Cherise was if she was behind the attack all along-
“Indeed.”
Danielle looked down and rubbed her fingers. “Damien probably wasn’t even aware that the people around will obey only me when I return.”
“Miss Lenoir.”
Mr. Kolson emerged from the room and humbly interjected, “I’ve asked the doctor to increase the dosage for Mr. Lenoir. He won’t wake up for a few hours.”
“Good.
Danielle smirked at Cherise. “See that?”
Cherise frowned. She finally understood.
The ‘attack’ on Damien was just a dose of sleeping medication.
She felt like she could finally breathe.
Damien wasn’t actually hurt.
He just got… Stabbed in the back by his own family.
“Danielle.”
Holding onto Danielle’s wheelchair, Sage smirked, “We’ll go with your idea. To prevent any unwanted surprises, let’s call the police now and have her arrested.”
She’d do anything if it meant getting one step closer to being Damien’s wife!
“Okay.”
Danielle smiled and nodded at Mr. Kolson.
“Yes, ma’am.”
Mr. Kolson nodded and left.
He gave Cherise a cold, derisive glance as he passed her.
A chill entered her heart.
Damien trusted Mr. Kolson, and yet…
Cherise looked up at Mr. Hampson standing by the door.
Their eyes met, but he quickly looked away.
Cherise smiled bitterly.
How would Damien feel when he woke up and found out everyone he had trusted had betrayed
him?
“Alright.”
Danielle yawned. Spinning the wheelchair around, she gave one last order, Tm leaving this to you, Sage.”
Before she closed the door, Cherise caught a glimpse of a nurse carefully injecting something into Damien’s IV.
Her hands clenched into fists as she stared defiantly back at Sage. “Are there any side effects to the drug you’re giving him?”
“Of course not.”
Sage leaned comfortably against the door. Her eyes were cruel as she mocked Cherise, “I didn’t think you’d be so concerned about my future husband.”
“But you
should worry about yourself.”
She sneered at her, not bothering to hide her greed. The crazed glint in her eyes was plain for all to see. “My uncle is the deputy chief of the police department.”
“Use your imagination. Think about what will happen to you when they arrest you later.”
She leaned in closer and whispered into Cherise’s ear, “I heard that prison is filled with inmates who are having a hard time, and there’s no hope of them getting out. You’ll find female inmates with nothing to lose where you’re going.”
“You better hope they’ll have mercy on you.”
Cherise’s jaw was clenched so tight, it was starting to hurt. “Damien would never accept you even if you do this to me.”
“I know.”
Sage sniggered. “Do you really think I care if he loves me?”
“I just want him.”
“All the doctors and nurses in this hospital are in our pocket,” Sage whispered into Cherise’s ear.
