Chapter 334 Are They Roadrunners?
“Haha!”
As laughter filled the air, Kareen Miles, seated next to Zachary, gave Cherise a cold, disdainful look. “You appear to be honest and well-behaved. I never expected you to be so shameless.”
“Don’t assume my brother likes you just because he took the initiative to talk to you!”
“All of his ex-girlfriends would leave you in the dust!”
Cherise pursed her lips, feeling slightly annoyed. She retorted flatly, “His ex-girlfriends. would leave me in the dust?”
“Were they all as fast as roadrunners?”
The girl, with her round face and round glasses, looked nerdy. Everyone couldn’t help but burst into laughter when she asked the slightly comical question so earnestly.
Peals of laughter echoed around them.
“She’s right. They must have been as fast as roadrunners to leave her in the dust!”
“Don’t tell me the Miles family has a preference for wild animals that can run fast?”
Kareen’s expression instantly paled.
D*mn it…
How dare this country bumpkin talk back to me?!
She gritted her teeth and was about to retort when Zachary stopped her. “I took the initiative to talk to her. What nonsense are you spouting?”
After that, he turned and beamed at Cherise. “Don’t mind her, Bunny”
“My younger sister had an accident last year.”
He pointed to his head. “She’s not quite right up here.”
“Don’t take her seriously!”
“You!”
Kareen gritted her teeth and was about to retort when Zachary covered her mouth.

“Her name isn’t Bunny.”
Damien’s deep voice rang indifferently. He pulled her into his arms and looked up
nonchalantly. His icy gaze served as a warning to Zachary and Kareen. “My wife’s name is Cherise Shaw.”
“If you can’t remember her name, call her Mrs. Lenoir.”
“Do you understand, Mr. Miles?”
Zachary furrowed his brows before smiling mischievously at Damien. “Yes, I do!”
“Hello, Mrs. Lenoir!”
The man shamelessly greeted Cherise.
Cherise pursed her lips and acknowledged him indifferently before leaning toward Damien. Her back faced Zachary as she looked down and continued playing with her cell phone.
“This stupid country bumpkin!”.
Kareen gritted her teeth and narrowed her eyes.
“Don’t cause trouble.”
Zachary’s careless expression vanished. He wrinkled his brows and glared at her gravely. “Don’t forget that we’re here for a purpose. We’re here to find Aunt Ariel’s daughter, not to cause trouble!”
Kareen pursed her lips and glared viciously at Cherise again. “I’ll get my revenge on her
sooner or later!”
“No one has ever dared to talk back to me during an argument!”
Zachary stroked her head. “Aunt Ariel really spoiled you.”
After waiting in the dining room for about ten minutes, Mr. Tanner took his seat with Beckham’s assistance.
“I apologize for making everyone wait.”
“I know young people usually don’t eat at this time.”

“But I’m an old man, and my health is failing. I must cat early so I can rest early. I apologize for the inconvenience!”
“Not at all!”
Zachary smiled. “We have much to learn from your healthy lifestyle.”
“Since we’re here at Tanner Residence, we should naturally follow your practices and adopt the Tanner family’s good habits!”
Mr. Tanner was delighted by his words.
Mr. Tanner waved his hand. “Alright, I won’t say anything more. Let’s dig in!”

The readers' comments on the novel: Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise)
🌸 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. ❤️...
