Damien shifted his attention back to the older men and asked, “When will the wedding take place?
“One week from now,” they replied.
Aaron observed Damien’s slightly tired face and said, “You look exhausted. Get well soon! My
granddaughter will be able to take care of you and help you recover!”
Damien nodded cheerfully and replied, “Yes, I’m sure she will.”
The next day, Cherise woke up before the sun had risen.
As she rubbed her eyes, she immediately looked for Damien. However, she became alarmed when she
couldn’t find him in bed.
“Damien!” she called out in fear, but was quickly comforted when she heard his response.
“I’m here.”

“I woke up when you held my hand last night.”
Cherise felt her face turn red with embarrassment. “Are you feeling better now?”
“Yes,” Damien replied.

Damien frowned at her comment. “Do you really think Aaron Tanner lied to help you out of trouble?”

Meanwhile, the missing Tanner girl was adored by her parents.
Damien felt a pang of sadness for Cherise, who wholeheartedly believed that her parents didn’t love
