Chapter 987 Escape from Chaos
“I’m heading downstairs now, not at your request, but because I’ve grown weary of sharing this stuffy air with all of you in this study room,” Cherise declared firmly.
“By the way, has there been a change in leadership with the principal and the dean of this school?” she inquired, her tone assertive.
“I’ll ensure they review the surveillance footage here so they can witness the disregard for privacy
among
the students of Adania University,” she added before gracefully turning to leave, her departure exuding poise. “I recall the library’s surveillance also captures audio.”
As Cherise finished speaking, a loud “bang” reverberated behind her, indicating someone had smashed the surveillance camera,
Observing Cherise’s departure with clenched teeth. Emma muttered, “Smashing it won’t make a difference. Those data have already been uploaded to the cloud.”
Taking a deep breath, she narrowed her eyes, retrieved her phone, and dialed a number. “Caleb, Cherise has left the room.”
“Ensure she’s intercepted, make her address the online messages properly, and make her confess that she’ll do anything for any man!” she instructed firmly
If Cherise’s promiscuity is confirmed, even with the principal and the dean witnessing today’s harassment on video, they won’t step in!
Having someone like Cherise in the school is considered disgraceful, and no punishment is deemed excessive for her!
“Don’t worry,” Caleb sneered over the phone. “I already have firsthand information.”
“The other day, Cherise legally adopted a child from the welfare home. Can you guess whose child he is?”
“He happens to be none other than the illegitimate child of Cherise and Sebastian!”
“Today’s headlines will be explosive; mark my words! With this news, I’m poised to be promoted deputy editor-in-chief of the magazine!”
Emily led Cherise and Blake to the first floor, intending to exit through the back door.
However, they were surprised to find the back door also besieged by a crowd of reporters.
Uncertain of how to proceed, Cherise noticed the security guard accepting money from the prompting her to usher Emily and Blake into a nearby utility room swiftly.
Nodding in understanding. Emily took a deep breath and gestured to a chair. “Cherise, please, have a
scat.”
In her nervousness, Emily accidentally knocked over the chair while reaching for a tissue.
“There’s a noise from over there!” a reporter shouted, prompting others to rush towards the room. “Let’s investigate!”
Emily was overcome with panic.
She looked at Cherise, tears on the verge of spilling, and stuttered, “I-I didn’t mean to…”

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. ❤️...
