Chapter 558 I Know You’re In There
In that moment, she felt a sense of tranquility in his embrace.
“Cherise.”
His deep voice resonated from his chest, reaching Cherise’s ears.
She pursed her lips and replied softly, “Yes?”
“Is there a way…”
He closed his eyes, his deep voice solemn. “For me to develop a tolerance for spicy food?”
“I don’t want you to give up spicy food because of me in the future, nor do I want to simply watch you eat what you
enjoy.”
“I was thinking…
“Don’t even consider it!”
Cherise interrupted with pursed lips, “You have stomach issues and a low tolerance for capsaicin. It’s a natural
predisposition. Don’t even think about it!”
“But…”
“No buts”,”
She was as stubborn as she was five years ago. She dismissed Damien’s counterarguments. “If you can’t handle it,
don’t force yourself to eat it.”
“But you enjoy…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“That’s not your concern.”
Cherise took a deep breath. “If you can’t handle it, don’t push yourself.”
“But…
“No “buts”.”
She closed her eyes, sighing in frustration. “To be honest, I don’t actually like spicy food.”
“I prefer sweet dishes.
“I pretended to like spicy food and ordered a table full of it because… because I wanted to annoy you. I just wanted
you to watch me eat.”
“I didn’t realize…”
She shook her head in resignation. “Damien, how did I never realize how foolish you are?”
He was slightly taken aback. “L…”
As they silently looked at each other, the frantic ringing of the doorbell interrupted them.

“Dr. Shaw! Dr. Shaw, open up!”
“I know you’re in there!”
This voice…
Cherise’s heart immediately raced in alarm.
She recognized this voice all too well!
This is…
“It’s me, Syatt Posten!”
Outside, Syatt Posten, dressed in black, excitedly rang the doorbell. “You must remember me!”
“I saw you coming up, so I followed you. I hope I’m not intruding?”
Damien frowned. He looked down at Cherise in his arms. “Who is he?”
Cherise immediately felt a headache coming on. “He’s one of my patients…
“And the heir to this hotel.”
Taking a deep breath, she extricated herself from Damien’s arms and got out of bed. “Is something wrong?”
“No.”
Outside the door, Syatt scratched his head bashfully. “You saved my life, but I haven’t properly thanked
you yet.”
“Also…”
“I’ve been discharged from the hospital for two weeks and happened to run into you, Dr. Shaw. Could you perhaps
give me a quick check-up?”
“If it’s inconvenient here, I can visit the hospital tomorrow…”
The veins on Cherise’s forehead throbbed.
She remembered Syatt’s visit to the hospital…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat scene was more dramatic and cheesier than Damien presenting roses to her in the hospital lobby today.
After that day, Lucy had teased her relentlessly for two weeks.
She wouldn’t allow such a spectacle to happen again!
She took a deep breath and pursed her lips. “I’ll step out and examine you now. Just wait.”
She picked up her coat and turned to Damien. “You should be fine here. I’ll check on him first, then return to the
hospital.”
After that, Cherise grabbed her coat and left.

Outside, Syatt looked at her admiringly. “Dr. Shaw, I haven’t seen you in two weeks, but you’re still as beautiful as
ever.”
Cherise frowned and glanced at him indifferently. “Let’s find a place to sit. Your heart is fine, but if you’re still
worried, I’ll give you a quick check-up.”

while.”
Syatt pursed his lips and murmured, “But I enjoy being alone with you…
Cherise gathered her coat and handbag and headed towards the bench, with Syatt reluctantly trailing behind.
They had barely taken a few steps when the door behind them swung open abruptly.
Syatt was startled and instinctively turned back.
A man dressed in trousers and a white shirt emerged from the room.
