Chapter 672 Give Him A Raise
Damien smiled subtly and played a voice recording on his phone. His deep and captivating voice resonated from the recording.
“Cherise, if you’re concerned about the children traveling long distances, why don’t you come to Adania with us? You can join in the fun and keep an eye on us. How does that sound?”
Then, Cherise responded in a slightly intoxicated voice, “Okay.”
“Damien… you’re a good man.”
Once the recording ended, Damien turned to Cherise with a hint of disappointment. “Are you going to deny it, Dr. Shaw?”
Cherise was left speechless. She did not want to admit to the recording.
Nevertheless, she sighed in resignation and glared resentfully at Damien. “You’re too cunning.”
When he invited her for a drink, she a*sumed he only wanted to console her and help her relieve stress. Little did she know he had schemed this.
“I’ve always been like this.”
Damien smiled. His eyes crinkled with amusement as he looked at Cherise. “You can try to deny it, but I believe you wouldn’t want the children to discover that their mother doesn’t honor her promises.”
“Furthermore, I suggest you go to Adania to look after the children. If you refuse, they might think don’t want to go with them and heartlessly leave them in my care. Wouldn’t they be upset?”

Cherise had no response.
This man is more cunning than a fox!
He knows exactly what I care about and deliberately uses the children to manipulate me!
Her children were only five years old and were too young to understand whether she was drunk. They would not comprehend the concept of being drunk. However, they would know she broke her promise.
Observing the resentment on Cherise’s face, Damien sighed helplessly “If you truly don’t want to fulfill what you promised, then I have no choice but to
“Forget it.” Cherise rolled her eyes. “Fine, I’ll go.”
After all, she had promised him earlier that if he helped her resolve this matter, she would let the children spend a day out with him.
Her children had rarely been away from her since they were babies. They might find it unsettling to suddenly go out with Damien without her presence.
She did not find it objectionable since she would be taking care of the children with him.
“Sure.”
Damien smiled and dialed a number. “Book the flight tickets.”
Cherise glared at him before heading to the bathroom to freshen up.
“Cherise, have you truly made up your mind?”
Dr. Keeples, the hospital director, looked at Cherise regretfully when she met him in his office. “You’ve accomplished so much for the hospital in the past. I can overlook what others. think and allow you to stay.”
Cherise shook her head. “Forget it, Dr. Keeples. You’ve always been fair and upright. It’s bad. enough that Dr. Lane is corrupt. I don’t want you to fall into the same trap.”
Dr. Keeples fell silent. He looked at Cherise sadly. “I suppose if you leave, Dr. Staber will leave as well.”
Cherise smiled. “That’s why I recommend you to rehire Isaac. He’s an exceptional doctor. After Lucy and I leave, you can focus on training him.”
Her smile was genuine. “I hope you won’t judge him based on Dr. Lane’s actions. He has nothing to do with all of that.”
Then, she tapped her forehead and continued, “I almost forgot, he owes me quite a bit of money. After you rehire him, remember to give him a raise so he can repay me sooner.”
