Chapter 69 The Venomous Vine of Jealousy

Cherise momentarily lost her balance, but Damien reached out in time to stop her from falling.

“Ian, are you alright?”

Lila, with eager concern, helped lan to his feet. How did you end up on the floor?”

As she spoke, her eyes lifted cautiously to glower at Damien. “Was it you?!”

“You, blind man seated in the wheelchair, what have you done to lan?!”

Before Lila could utter another word, Cherise placed herself in front of Damien with a frown. “Lila,

please mind your words!”

Lila huffed coldly. “So, did you bring this blind man here?”

“What are you going to do about it?”

She made sure lan had found his balance before letting him go, then walked towards Damien with a

sneer. “Not only will I call him a blind @ss man, but I will also throw him. out right in front of you!”

Cherise clenched her fists. “I dare you!”

Lila had harbored feelings for lan for a while now.

Jealousy burgeoned within her when she noticed lan had been dropping off Cherise to work in the past,

leading to her making things difficult for Cherise.

Now, it was evident that the man in the wheelchair assaulted Ian, and Lila, amidst her anger, saw it as

an opportunity to shine.

A triumphant smile adorned her lips as she moved briskly towards Damien.

But Cherise stood in her way.

Despite being ten inches shorter, Cherise stood with clenched fists, her cheeks puffed as she barked,

“Lila, lan must have fallen on the ground for a good reason. My husband is a good man, how could he

put his hands on lan?”

Lila raised an eyebrow indifferently.

She recalled that this little girl, who wore a ponytail, had always behaved obsequiously. regardless of

how difficult she made things for Cherise.

She had not heard her talk back before.

Who would have thought that now, for the sake of a blind man, this same little girl would. stand up to

her?

Lila marched forward and raised her hand to shove Cherise aside.

She made sure to put in enough force to make sure Cherise felt her hostility, but to her surprise,

Cherise remained unmoving.

She gritted her teeth and retorted, “Lila, there must be a misunderstanding!”

Lila’s eyes widened. The nerve of this girl!

“Lila.”

Ian interrupted with furrowed brows. “Stop picking on Cherise.”

Lila became so mad; one could see steam shooting from her ears!

What’s so good about Cherise Shaw?!!

First, Ian used his connections and got her this part-time job, and as a mere part-timer, she earned

almost as much as Lila, a full-time employee!

He even put in a special request to assign her some simple tasks.

He would also drop her off at work and walk her to her station, then he would always be waiting for her

as she got off work so he could give her a lift!

She found no reason not to make Cherise’s life a living hell!

Who did she think she was? She was merely a country girl from a rural village!

Lila’s eyes narrowed to slits at the thought, dangerous and cold, as they fixed Cherise. “Move!” She

squeezed the word through clenched teeth.

upon

Cherise, with steadfast gaze, stood her ground with fists balled at her sides. “Never!”

“Lila, be sensible. We still don’t know how lan fell. On what grounds do you blame my husband?”

“Blame?”

Lila let out a scornful laugh. “There were just the two of them in this room, besides him… Ah…!”

Before her words could escape her lips, Damien swept Cherise into his embrace with one hand and,

with the other, wheeled his wheelchair and rammed into Lila’s knees!

Everything happened so suddenly that Lila had no time to react.

With a sharp pain that shot through her knee, she collapsed and kneeled on the floor with the other

knee.
