Dark Secrets of the Blind Husband novel Chapter 816

Chapter 816 I Admired Her

Five years ago, Cherise could never have imagined that the past events Charisa had told her would save her in this critical moment.

Thanks to her excellent memory, she recalled Jarvi’s name and remembered Charisa describing him as a man of integrity.

“Your mother?” Jarvi gazed at Cherise, and furrowed his brow.

Only now did he start to closely examine Cherise’s face. Previously, he had simply regarded her as his prey, and a prey meant nothing to him.

But now, as he looked at Cherise’s round face and eyes, memories of a determined woman inexplicably appeared in his mind.

She and her… are too similar.

However, people from Miles Manor had informed him that Charisa was with her daughter and husband. She did not wish to see anyone else in her final moments and only desired to be with the people she cared about the most.

When she presented this photo, her intention was to prove her connection to Charisa. How could she have known that Jarvi was also one of her mother’s admirers?

Although reluctant to part with it, as it was the last photo taken with her mother, she realized that getting close to Jarvi might be the solution to the crisis she and Damien were facing.

Thus, Cherise took a deep breath and hesitated before turning to Jarvi. “I can give this to you. But…”

She struggled to meet Jarvi’s gaze. “Currently, your client wants to capture me and my husband…”
