Chapter 517 The Painful Reveal
How could this be possible….
“Is he returning to the Lenoir family to care for some unresolved matters?”
“Who knows.”
Zachary shrugged and said, “Maybe he needs to verify something.
His demeanor turned severe as he fixed his gaze on Cherise, “But Bunny, I advise you to reconsider your relationship with Damien.”
Cherise was taken aback. Her face turned pale as she murmured, “What are you implying….
She and Damien had just celebrated their wedding.
They had just embarked on their journey of marital bliss.
They had just… started.
“I’m not one to interfere in your personal affairs.”
Zachary shook his head gently and smiled, “Despite my affection for you, I’ve never intervened in your relationship with Damien.”
“I’m not one to pry into others’ business.”
“But Bunny, between you and Damien…”
“There are too many hurdles.”
Zachary sighed and spoke softly.
Cherise’s heart clenched.
Yet, she managed to look at Zachary with a faint smile, “Why?”
“Aren’t Damien and I doing well?”
“It’s just his sister that’s causing trouble…”
“Just because his sister is problematic, doesn’t mean he is…”
Zachary shook his head.
“Do you remember what I told you earlier?”
“Bunny, you should appreciate the times of ignorance.”

“Because the more you discover, the less joy you uncover.”
“The more you unravel, the more evident the repercussions. You’ll eventually come to know.”
“Damien is already making decisions. I can’t keep you in the dark.”
Zachary took a deep breath and recounted his conversations with Damien about Charisa and
Hansen.
Cherise’s face stiffened, and her smile slowly faded as a cold and sorrowful look plastered.
“Mom… she…
Cherise was in tears after hearing all of that.
“How could this be…”
No way…
Her mother, a woman of extraordinary aloofness and dignity, seemed unfathomable after enduring such an ordeal.
What kind of man was Damien’s father?
The facts remained undeniable, no matter how much she resisted.
The incident from the past had become the anchor of her mom’s entire life.
She had always wondered why her mom had contracted such a disease.
Why would someone harm her mom when she was young?
Now, everything fell into place.
The past incident changed her mom’s life and impacted her and Damien’s happiness.
Cherise clenched her fists tightly.
After Uncle Shaw started the fire, Damien forgave him, understanding that Uncle Shaw was a pawn in the events.
However, learning that her mom orchestrated the murder of Damien’s parents changed everything.
Damien’s father was the perpetrator who violated and harmed her mom.
Damien and Cherise should have been at odds.
But they found each other and fell in love..

They celebrated with such a lavish wedding.
Cherise took a deep breath, looked up at Zachary, and said, “Since Mom knew about Damien’s identity as Hansen, then why…”
“Aunt Charisa emphasized that parents should not let their actions hurt the child.
“If your love for Damien is sincere and irreplaceable, she’s willing to accept your marriage to
him.”
“Don’t let her past connections with Hansen affect your happiness.”
Zachary’s words stirred a pang of pain in Cherise’s heart..
