Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 1165

Dark Secrets of the Blind Husband
Chapter 1165 Cherise's Drunken Escapades
Colin lingered by the doorway, balancing two steaming cups of tea. It was clear he had arrived with the intention of offering refreshment to them.

Mandy rolled her eyes. "Pfft. Eavesdropping."

Colin pursed his lips, his expression tightening slightly. "I wasn't eavesdropping. You didn't shut the door," he countered.

Mandy responded with silence, her frustration palpable.

"Alright, we're all friends here, right? Misunderstandings can be cleared up," Lucy chimed in, her tone light as she glanced at Mandy and Colin and winked. "You don't have to explain. I understand," Shortly after, Lucy took out her phone and dialed Cherise's number. "Quick, come over to my place. It's nothing serious. Mandy's here. She's at my house now. Mm. She came last night and stayed with Colin..."

Mandy was dumbfounded. She couldn't shake the feeling that Lucy was intentionally causing tension.

Meanwhile, by the door, Colin's face and ears were red as he placed the tea on the coffee table with pursed lips. He excused himself and headed upstairs. "I'll freshen up and go to the office!"

"It's the weekend," Lucy said with a smile after hanging up. "Do you want to stay at home with us and keep Mandy company?"

Colin froze. He cleared his throat before responding, "The weekend... Since it's the weekend, I promised to meet Jude. I'll clean up and head out to meet him!" With that, he hurried upstairs as if he were escaping a great danger.

Leaning against Mandy's door, Lucy observed Colin's swift exit with crossed arms. "What did you do to him last night? Why is he so flustered?"

Damien smirked as his lips twitched lightly. "Cherise was drunk last night."

Mandy raised an eyebrow at him. "How does Cherise's drunk state explain why your phone was unreachable?" Cherise also looked at Damien, puzzled. Yes, I was drunk. But what does it have to do with Damien's phone being unreachable?

Damien's lips twitched. He walked over casually, settled next to Cherise, and slowly poured himself a cup of tea before calmly explaining, "She dunked my phone in the teapot during her drunken escapade last night." The man's deep voice was teasing yet affectionate. "After I rescued my phone, she snatched it from me and went to the bathtub, deciding it was good for a bath, treating it like a bar of soap."

The three women were dumbstruck, and there was an awkward air in the living room. Cherise blushed while Mandy and Lucy looked at the couple in a daze, unsure how to respond. Finally, Lucy was the first to come to her senses. She frowned and spoke up, slightly exasperated. "And you just let her?"
