Chapter 889 She’s No Match for You
Cherise widened her eyes as she stood up. “Can’t we… chat a little longer?”
She was not done discussing the acquisition of Lenoir Group’s shares.
“Let’s not talk about it for now.” Sebastian smiled at Cherise. “I have something I want from Damien. But I won’t reveal it at the moment.”
“If Damien can’t find a solution, you can come find me again. Remember, I’m only willing to entertain negotiations from you, not Damien.” He gave her another smile and left.
Cherise stood still and pursed her lips as she watched Sebastian leave.
He’s only willing to talk to me, but not Damien. Is it because I was his classmate that he’s ready to negotiate?
Regardless, it’s still a positive development as long as Sebastian is willing to talk.
Cherise told Damien about her discussion with Sebastian that night.
“No need to talk to him.” Damien smiled. “If he’s willing to negotiate, Lennon would have done it long ago.”
He cradled her feet onto his lap, supporting her delicate feet with one hand while holding a nail clipper with his other hand. He gently trimmed her toenails, saying, “As for what he said to you today, he’s either teasing you or being polite because you were classmates.”
“Only someone as foolish as you would take it seriously.”
Cherise was at a loss for words.
“I’m not foolish!”
“Okay, you’re foolish, just naive.”
“I’m not naive either!”
Cherise lay on the carpet, playing a game on her phone while enjoying the luxury treatment of her husband trimming her toenails. “I don’t think he’s the type of person to break his promise. Who knows, he might be sentimental about the past and sell the shares to you out of respect for me?”
Cherise was confident that Sebastian still cared about their friendship.
“He won’t.” Damien chuckled lightly. “Sebastian is not that kind of person. Try not to meet him again, and don’t bring up this matter with him.”
Damien advised sincerely, “It won’t end well, so no need to invite trouble.”
“I have confidence in handling this matter. Just focus on being my assistant and organizing documents for me. This storm will soon pass.”

Chapter 889 She’s No Match for You
Cherise lay on the carpet, silently pursing her lips.
However, since Damien had no intention of repurchasing the shares, she did not have to worry anymore. After all, it was up to Damien to decide for Lenoir Group.
Cherise woke up early the following day.
She rummaged through her closet for a while before finally settling on a set of mature-looking formal attire. Although she had suits, she could not help but feel envious of Candace after seeing her in a figure-hugging tailored suit. Therefore, she was determined to outshine Candace on her first day of
work.
Thus, she even applied slightly heavier makeup after changing into the clothes. Gazing at herself in the mirror, Cherise was satisfied with her professional appearance and left the bathroom.
She noticed a man in a suit leaning against the door frame as she stepped out. His arms wère crossed, and his eyes flickered with a playful gleam as he looked at her. “Ms. Shaw, you look gorgeous today.”
Cherise could not help but blush. “How do I compare to Candace?”
“She’s no match for you.”
“Really?”
“Absolutely.”
“That’s good, then!”
She smiled delightedly and turned around to go downstairs. However, she overestimated her ability to walk in a pair of 3-inch stilettos.
