Chapter 233 Do I Even Need Proof
He had an unusually fanatical gaze. “I was helping you!”
Cherise couldn’t help but take a step back.
The lan before her was no different from a madman.
He looked at her with a strange, crazy, and ruthless gaze. It was how the village fool in their hometown
would look at others.
The man behind her pulled her into his arms perfectly.
Intense and bitter resentment flickered across Ian’s eyes when he saw Damien come out.
He sneered. “Don’t you have great eyesight? Why did you keep insisting on pretending to be at blind
man?”
Damien let out an indifferent laugh. “Aren’t you quite underhanded, too, Mr. Philips? Why do you keep
pretending to be virtuous and honorable?”
Ian choked and couldn’t say anything for a long time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the end, he glared at Damien ferociously. “No matter how underhanded I am, I’m not as bad as you!”
“You used your wealth to force Cherise to marry you, and you even want her to birth a child for you!”
lan grew angrier as he spoke. What right does Damien have?
Can he do as he likes because he’s rich and take the girl I like?
The world was a level playing field, but it fell into turmoil because of these rich people who were born
privileged!
Damien hugged Cherise and looked at Ian icily. “Do you have proof that I used my wealth to force her
to marry me?”
“Heh. Do I even need proof?”
Ian narrowed his eyes coldly. “When Cherise’s grandmother was severely ill in the hospital, the Lenoir
family paid for her grandmother’s medical fees. After that, she married you. Isn’t it obvious?”
“It’s because you’re rich and powerful. You used your money to force Cherise, who was born
impoverished, to marry you!”
Cherise pursed her lips, and her hands were tightly clenched into fists at her side.
1/3
Everything lan said was true.
Initially, she had married Damien for her grandmother’s medical fees.
But she did it willingly!
After she got married, she discovered Damien was much better than she imagined!
“Rich people like you will never compete fairly with others, regardless if it’s applying for jobs or pursuing
women; you’re tyrannical with your wealth!”
lan grew even more furious as he spoke. His face, badly battered after being beaten up by Lennon,
started to distort. “Cherise can never give birth to a child with a father like you!”
“Rich people like us don’t compete fairly?”
Damien raised his brows at lan indifferently. “Let me ask you. You keep saying that you wanted to
pursue Cherise. So where were you during Cherise’s toughest times?”
“When her grandmother needed money to treat her illness, where were you when Cherise felt alone
and helpless?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIan’s complexion instantly turned ashen.
Damien’s words clearly touched his sore spot.
He didn’t have the nerve to help Cherise when her family faced hardships.
Ian heard his classmates say that Cherise’s grandmother was severely ill, and her family was raising
money to save her grandmother’s life. Still, he told his classmates regretfully that there was no value in
providing critical care to old people at that age.
He never dared to take the initiative and contact Cherise because he knew that Cherise’s family was
having such a hard time but still insisted on treating the old woman.
He was afraid.
He feared he would have to disregard his pride and help Cherise raise money after getting close to her.
Mary’s illness was like a bottomless pit.
Therefore, he had never contacted Cherise.
He initially thought of waiting for Mary to pass away and for the Shaw family’s finances to stabilize. If he
still didn’t have a girlfriend, then he would consider Cherise.
But he never thought he would bump into Cherise at the hospital, nor did he imagine that Cherise had
married Damien to treat Mary. lan believed that Damien had no virtues other than his wealth.
