Chapter 754 Is She Your Friend?

“Sure.” Damien chuckled wickedly on the other end. “We have plenty of time. I’m sure I’ll hear you utter those

words again.”

Cherise pursed her lips. She was no longer interested in chatting with him and hung up promptly.

“Cherise, were you talking to Mr. Lenoir, your fiancé?”

The female colleague previously engaged in a lengthy discussion about Damien with her. She now boldly

approached Cherise. I’m Heather Dupont, but you can call me Heather. You seem to have a good relationship with

Mr. Lenoir.”

Cherise responded with an awkward laugh, “It’s all right…”

“That’s more than all right!” Heather immediately shook her head and showed Cherise the bag she was carrying. “I

did some research. This bag costs around seven thousand, even when directly purchased from the brand’s

boutique overseas! Yet, Mr. Lenoir gifted one to each of us. He’s incredibly generous.”

Cherise continued smiling awkwardly. “It’s nothing.”

But deep down, she could not help but inwardly scold Damien for his extravagance.

A bag worth seven thousand! Even my bag isn’t that expensive! He’s incredibly generous!

However, when she considered all that money was spent for her sake, she realized she was the cause of this.

wastefulness.

Seeing that Cherise was approachable, Heather followed her into her office and chatted about various things. She

even inquired about Damien and Lennon.

“Cherise, here’s what I’m thinking.” Heather looked at Cherise earnestly. “Aside from Mr. Lenoir, Lennon the most

intriguing man in Adania. Moreover, he’s still single. Since you’re with Damien, I’ll pursue Lennon instead. Also,

Lennon and Damien are such close friends, so let’s become best friends too.”

Cherise listened in a daze, feeling uncomfortable with every passing moment.

Even though she was not particularly fond of Lennon, she felt uneasy hearing another woman express her intention

to pursue him. After all, Lucy still seemed to harbor feelings for him.

For the whole afternoon, Cherise focused on dealing with paperwork while answering Heather’s queries about

Lennon absentmindedly.

Finally, when Damien arrived to pick her up from the institute, Heather boldly followed Cherise into Damien’s

vehicle.

“Is she your friend?” Damien furrowed his brow as he glanced at the woman in the back seat through the rearview

mirror.

“She’s a colleague,” Cherise responded with an awkward laugh.

“Since she’s a colleague.” Damien accurately discerned how Cherise felt about Heather from her expression. and

tone. Thus, he said coldly, “Miss, I suggest you find another ride at the back.”

Damien’s stern tone sent a chill throughout the car. Even the outgoing Heather could not ignore his unwelcoming

demeanor. Terrified, she hurriedly exited the car and joined her other colleagues on the bus.

The door closed with a thud.

Damien withdrew his frosty demeanor. His eyes crinkled with amusement as he observed the helpless. woman in

the rearview mirror. “You’re still the same as before and never learned to say no.”

Cherise pursed her lips. “She was friendly and chatted with me all afternoon. I couldn’t kick her out.”

It was not that she disliked Heather. Instead, she found her too noisy. Moreover, Cherise felt.

uncomfortable listening to her constant chatter about her desire to pursue Lennon.
