Chapter 242 Do You Have Proof
All the reporters aimed their cameras at Cherise.
Since it had come to this, there was no need for Lucy and Lennon to hide either.
They took off their hats and face masks together.
A louder cry of surprise broke out at the scene. “Lennon Belcourt is also here!”
“Lennon Belcourt is here with Cherise Shaw at Ian Philips’ press conference! This is big news!”
Cherise was holding the microphone and looked coldly toward the stage. “Ian Philips.”
“I used to think of you as my respected senior, but now I know you’re unworthy.”
“I treated you like a hero and considered you a goal and-role model to strive for. But in the end, you said such things about me.”
“You know better than I do that the child I miscarried didn’t belong to Lennon.”
“I don’t.”
Ian furrowed his brows. “Cherise, the facts speak louder than words.”
“You say that the child wasn’t Lennon’s. Do you have proof?”
He looked at her with a provoking gaze.
He was standing on completely opposite ends from Cherise.
Cherise let out a bitter laugh. She took out the doctor’s diagnosis from her bag. “The diagnosis. states that the child I miscarried is two weeks old.”
“Two weeks ago, Lennon was overseas.”
“May I ask how I got pregnant with his child if he was across the Atlantic Ocean?”
The scene was in an uproar.
“How do you know Lennon was overseas two weeks ago?”
At this time, Melanie spoke up. She had been silent at the side.
She stood on the stage coldly and projected proof of Lennon’s entry and exit at the airport on the big screen. “Our people specially investigated Lennon’s incoming and outgoing records in the country.”
“You can clearly see here that Lennon secretly came to Adania on a private jet sixteen days ago
1/3
before leaving the next day.”
As Melanie spoke, she looked up at Cherise with a smile on the corners of her lips. “Mrs. Lenoir, don’t treat others as a fool.”
“If we didn’t have clear-cut evidence proving that Ian is right, how would Fuoco Corporation dare to invest in him?”
Cherise was slightly taken aback.
“This is impossible!”
“Why is it impossible?”
Melanie sneered. She glanced at Lennon, who was beside Cherise. “Mr. Belcourt, do you dare say this airport entry and exit record is fake?”
“What on earth is going on?”
Lucy was also slightly dazed. She gritted her teeth and pushed Lennon. “Did you really secretly return two weeks ago?”
Lennon pursed his thin lips tightly. “Mm.”
“Look. Lennon is personally admitting it.”
Melanie smiled. “What else do you have to say, Cherise?”
“He returned two weeks ago, and you got pregnant two weeks ago.”
“Your child was aborted. Lennon went to assault Ian before Damien did anything”
“Do you dare say that the child doesn’t belong to Lennon?”
Cherise subconsciously took one step back.
How can there be… such a coincidence?
She thought the matter was straightforward as long as she could prove that Lennon wasn’t in the country when she got pregnant. Then, the lie could be quickly unraveled.
But… Lennon had secretly returned to the country two weeks ago?
He returned to the country and left the next day. It happened to be around the time she got
pregnant.
The matter that initially could be explained clearly became complicated again.
She turned and looked at Lennon blankly. “Why did you return to the country at that time? Can
anyone prove…”

🌸 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. ❤️...
