My Blind Husband novel (Damien and Cherie)

Chapter 6

The atmosphere in the villa turned sullen. Damien glanced at the bottles of medicine on the table. His

gaze turned cold as he said, “It turns out my wife is concerned about me. I’ve wrongly accused her.”

However, Cherise was not stupid. She keenly sensed the sarcasm in his tone and gaze. Damien turned

to the butler and gestured to him indifferently. The butler hurried over and took the bottles of medicine

away. Cherise felt guilty. “Why did you get the butler to take them away? Don’t… you want to take

them?” He seems in a bad mood. Damien pursed his lips and smiled vaguely. “Let’s have lunch.” His

voice was gruff and cold. Cherise sensed the surrounding air turn chilly. It looks like he’s angry. Cherise

clasped her hands nervously. I brought him medicine on the second day of our marriage. Is it wrong? Did giving him the medicine so soon after our wedding make him think I detest him? Cherise

suddenly recalled Lucy’s advice. ‘A disabled person has low self-esteem.’ She could not resist

grumbling about Lucy in her mind. Goodness, Lucy! You know a disabled person has low self-esteem. Why did you ask me to get those medicine? But I’m partially at fault. I should have expected this. “Eat

up,” Damien said gruffly. Cherise grabbed a fork and began to eat. She felt nervous and tensed Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

throughout the meal. Once she finished her food, the butler approached her and said, “Mrs. Lenoir, Old

Mr. Lenoir called and invited you and Mr. Lenoir to dinner tonight. The driver will pick you up after

school, so please refrain from scheduling other activities.” “I understand.” Cherise smiled politely. “I

don’t have any plans tonight anyway.” Her eyes crinkled as she smiled, making her appear sincere and

adorable. Anyone would think she was too innocent to have any schemes. After saying that, she

grabbed her bag and waved at Damien. “I’m off to school!” Once she disappeared from the room, the

butler stood behind Damien and said respectfully. “I’ve sent the medicine to a lab for testing. The result

will be ready soon.” He paused and could not resist adding, “I don’t think Mrs. Lenoir is a calculative

person.” Damien looked indifferently in the direction Cherise had left. “Investigate the doctor who asked

her out.” The butler pursed his lips and reminded, “The driver said Mrs. Lenoir’s friend brought the

medicine. I think her friend is more suspicious…” However, Damien’s domineering aura intimidated the

butler into silence. Damien smiled vaguely, “I wish to investigate the man who asked my wife out. Do

you have any problem with that?” “No… No, sir!” … Once the classes were over, Cherise left the

campus to find the driver waiting at the main gate. Moreover, a magnificent Rolls-Royce was parked

nearby. Her heart sank. She rushed the driver and said urgently, “We must leave now!” Cherise feared

other students would see her getting into a luxury car and spread rumors. Unfortunately, what one

feared tended to come true. Once she entered the car, she glanced through the window and saw her

classmate, Cressa Lyes looking at her with a shocked expression. Oh no… Cherise’s heart sank.

Cressa was the campus’ notorious gossiper. Any secrets she discovered would be spread all over the

campus before the end of the day. “Sit tight.” A gruff male voice sounded as Cherise pondered how to

salvage the matter, prompting her to turn to him in shock. A man with a strip of black silk over his eyes

was sitting in the seat behind her. She could feel the intimidating aura around him. Cherise exclaimed,

“Why are you here?” Didn’t the butler say the driver would pick me up for dinner with Old Mr. Lenoir? “It’s on the way,” Damien replied succinctly as he leaned into the seat made of genuine leather.

He appeared reluctant to speak. It seems he hasn’t gotten over what happened at noon… Cherise

looked out the window gloomily. After the car traveled for a while, she noticed something was

wrong. Why isn’t this car heading to Old Mr. Lenoir’s house but to our home? She frowned. “Why aren’t

we going to Grandpa’s place?” Damien answered disdainfully, “Do you want to meet him while dressed

like this?” His words prompted Cherise to look at her clothes. She wore a pair of faded jeans from

repeated wash and a white T-shirt with black writing ‘Rude Fairies!’. Oh… My clothes aren’t appropriate for meeting an elder. But… “How do you know what I’m wearing?” Isn’t he blind? Damien snorted. “I

don’t trust your taste.” Cherise was rendered speechless. Even though she was mild-tempered, she

could not help but feel displeased to be mocked repeatedly. Thus, she rolled her eyes at him. Then,

remembering that he could not see her, she scowled at him. Once she had enough of venting her

anger, she pursed her lips and looked out the window. “Since you made me go home to change my

clothes, you should have stayed there. Why bother coming out?” He can’t see. It must have been troublesome to leave the house repeatedly. Damien smirked. He turned to the driver and said

indifferently, “Mr. Kolson.” A divider immediately appeared between the front and back seats, creating

two sealed-off spaces in the car. Damien moved gracefully as he offered Cherise a document. “Have a

look at it.” Cherise was confused, but she flipped through the document nevertheless. It was a lab test

report. The items tested were two bottles of unlabeled medicine. Unlabeled medicine? Aren’t these the

ones from Lucy? The ones I gave him this afternoon? Cherise was shocked that Damien tested the

medicine she gave him. On further thought, she realized he was right to get them tested. After all, he

had a weak constitution and could not simply take any medication. It would be troublesome if they

triggered his allergy. Rich people are so thoughtful! With that in mind, she skipped the rest of the report

and read the conclusion. “Huh…” Cherise was stumped as she read the test result. ‘Our tests identified

the samples as drugs to treat the male reproductive system, specifically impotence, premature

ejaculation, and other conditions.’ Cherise was rendered speechless. What’s going on? Her hands

shook, and the document fell onto the carpet with a loud splat. Damien’s tone carried a hint of threat.

“My wife thinks I’m lacking in that department.” “No… I didn’t… I…” Cherise was so flustered that she

kept stuttering. When Lucy gave her the medicine, she said they were for his eyes. Cherise and Lucy

were close, so Cherise never expected Lucy to trick her. If she had known the medicine’s actual usage,

she would never have accepted them. Damien suddenly reached out and grabbed her, lifting her onto

his lap. He had an intimidating yet seductive aura. Cherise hated herself for blushing. “I…” “Seems like

my wife is dissatisfied with our wedding night.” He held Cherise’s chin with his big hand and slowly

parted his lips. “So, she went to the hospital on the second day of our marriage and got me those

medicines. How kind of her.” A strip of black ribbon covered his eyes, making him appear sensual and

flirtatious. Cherise instinctively avoided Damien’s gaze as he held her chin. “I… I didn’t know the

medicines were for that purpose!” “I thought they were for…” “Mmn…”
