Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 885 A New Job

“The world is full of superficial people who follow the crowd. I fear I will also become one of them if I stay in such an environment for too long.”

Cherise smiled at Damien. “Honestly, I’ve considered this before but never acted on it. Since the matter with Yolanda has been resolved today, and I am proven innocent, I decided to resign.”

“That’s fine.” Damien smiled and gently ruffled her hair. “But are you sure you want to help me in the office? If you do, you will be my employee. I won’t be as gentle with you at work as at home.”

Cherise smiled and nodded. “Of course, I also want to see how impressive my husband is at work!”

“You…” Damien smiled helplessly, patting her head, “You should go home first. I might be working late tonight. Since you just resigned today, take a day off tomorrow. You can officially report to the human resource department the day after as my assistant.”

Cherise nodded. “No problem!”

“Go rest now.” Damien glanced at the stainless-steel watch on his wrist. “It’s already past ten.”

Cherise nodded and held a thermal lunchbox, preparing to leave. However, she could not help but turn around and look at Damien. “I’m going home… What about you?”

“I still have some work to do.” Damien smiled and patted her head. “Don’t worry, I won’t leave you feeling lonely. Go back and rest early. I’ll keep you busy in bed once I get back.”

Cherise blushed and grumbled about the inappropriate response before quickly leaving with the lunchbox.

A faint smile appeared on Damien’s stern face as he watched Cherise leave.

In fact, Beckham had mentioned previously that it would be best for Cherise to learn the ropes of business. After all, they could not forever entrust the Tanner family’s businesses to Mandy.

As Mandy was not getting any younger, it was time for her to consider marriage, and Cherise should shoulder the responsibility of managing Tanner Group.

Before this, Damien hesitated because he wanted Cherise to focus on her aspirations and dreams. But since she had expressed the desire to work as his assistant, it was a promising start.

With him as her mentor, he believed that Cherise’s future achievements would be on par with her

mother’s.

Damien was a man of his word.

Even though he returned home after four in the morning, he still roused Cherise from her sleep and initiated baby-making activities.

Dazed and sleepy, Cherise felt sore and uncomfortable but could only whimper and complain as she

cooperated with him. The two tumbled in bed until past seven.

After a shower, Damien remained energetic as he left to send their children to school.

On the other hand, Cherise lay on the bed, too exhausted to move a finger. She could only stare at the ceiling in a daze. Even now, she could not understand why Damien had so much energy.

He had not slept a wink last night, yet he was insatiable in bed and happily helped her send the children to school in the morning. With no other explanation, Cherise thought he must be a monster. She realized she had married a monster.

As Cherise lay in bed pondering, her phone rang. It was a call from Sebastian.

“Are you awake?” Sebastian’s warm voice carried a hint of concern. “Do you have time to meet today or tomorrow?”

Cherise yawned. “I have time today, but not tomorrow.” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Sebastian chuckled. “Why?”

“I’m starting my new job tomorrow as the assistant to Lenoir Group’s president.”
