Chapter 101 It’s My Duty
He looked coldly at the people before him. “I didn’t make you return from Europe to be incompetent.”
He threw a proposal on the table. “Take a look. If there aren’t any problems, implement it
soon.”
Outside the Shaw Group building.
Cherise, who was in a white T-shirt and jeans, went to a few cafés but couldn’t find hand- ground coffee.
Cherise had previously noticed that Mr. Hampson specially instructed people to hand grind and roast the coffee that Damien drank at home.
Therefore, he would dislike brewed coffee.
She went along the road but couldn’t find a café that had hand-ground coffee, so she wanted to cross the road and go to the other side to look for it.
But Cherise never imagined that someone wanted to kill her in broad daylight.
She was crossing the road as the car drove toward her.
The red light was still lit. However, the car didn’t brake. Instead, it stepped on the drove straight toward Cherise.

Cherise was late to catch on and only realized when the passersby around her cried out in surprise.
But it was too late!
A hand quickly pulled her to the side of the road at that critical moment.
But even when the person had moved quickly, the vehicle’s scorching exhaust pipe grazed Cherise’s leg.
“Thank you.”
Cherise had yet to recover from her shock. She panted roughly as she thanked the who had pulled her away.

“No problem.”

A young, clear voice answered her.
She looked up subconsciously.
It was Blake.
Cherise was slightly surprised.
She never had a good impression of Blake. After all, he had almost killed Nick the first day. they had met.
Therefore, she always felt the young teen was brutal and vicious.
But she never thought that the young teen, whom she didn’t have a favorable opinion, would bravely step forward and save her at such a crucial juncture.
“Thank you, Blake.”
After Cherise calmed herself, she thanked him sincerely again.
“No problem, Cherry!”
A shy smile was revealed on the inarticulate young teen’s face. “It’s my duty!”
The car had long driven away.
Blake helped Cherise back to the Shaw Group building to sit on a couch on the first floor.
Cherise was still concerned about Damien’s coffee, so she called Lucy to come over and buy him a cup.
In the meeting room upstairs.
Mr. Hampson saw the news of Cherise getting injured on his cell phone. He looked up at Damien, whom everyone was listening to.
At that moment, the man was sitting in the meeting room’s seat of honor coldly and running the meeting in a commanding manner.
Mr. Hampson furrowed his brows. He turned and left the room before calling Jacob.

🌸 Message to the Author: 🌸 Hi! I just finished reading your story, and I truly loved it — especially Damien and Cherise’s journey. But what completely stole my heart was Lennon and Lucy. Their final scene left me stunned… Lennon being alive, quietly showing up after all that time — it was such a powerful and emotional moment. But it also left me with so many feelings… What happened to him? How did Lucy react after the shock wore off? What did they say to each other? I keep thinking about them. I know they’re side characters, and the story is marked as completed, but I would truly love a bonus chapter — even a small one — to see what came next for them. They deserve that closure. And honestly? So do we, as readers who deeply connected with them. And we would also love to see more of Damien and cherise with their kids. Thank you for creating characters that live so deeply in our hearts. If you ever feel inspired, please consider giving Lennon and Lucy a little more. ❤️...
