Chapter 590 I Know You Better Than Anyone Else
“I know you better than anyone else,” Damien uttered in a low and indifferent voice.
Cherise found it hard to remain unmoved. Her heart stirred slightly.
Hearing Damien say those words to her now still warmed her heart and thrilled her, just like it did five years ago, especially in this moment.
They had been apart for five full years. Many things could change in such a time span. It was even enough. for someone’s character to completely transform..
But even after their reunion, Damien still sat calmly in the back seat of her car and rea*sured her when she was being slandered. “I know you better than anyone else.”
His words and intentions deeply touched her.
Cherise took a deep breath. A faint smile formed on the corners of her l*ps. “Thank you, Mr. Lenoir.”
“You’re welcome, Dr. Shaw.” Damien leaned back, his arms folded behind his head. “But I noticed a few students taking photos in the cla*sroom earlier. I suspect this won’t be easy to resolve.”
Cherise nodded.
In this age of advanced technology, anyone could spread news or be a rumor-monger.
The supposed scandalous deeds of a renowned female doctor would undoubtedly attract a large audience.
“What’s the plan?” he asked nonchalantly..
“I’ll deal with it when the time comes. Cherise smiled and started the car. “After all, this matter is in the past. I don’t believe one person like Jordyn can tarnish my reputation.”
She had faced many challenges and much skepticism in her medical career but never backed down.
“I’m rather intrigued by Isaac Roebuck” The man frowned slightly. “Do you know where he lives? I’d like to meet him.”
Cherise furrowed her brows, “Why do you want to meet him?”
“I intend to retrieve your fifty thousand dollars.” The man smiled faintly. “And perhaps exchange some insights on pursuing Dr. Shaw.”
After that, he sighed, slightly distressed. “I know you’re an alluring woman, Dr. Shaw, but I didn’t realize you have so many suitors.”
“Zachary, Syatt, and now, Isaac.” The man smiled faintly. His gaze fell on the back of the woman’s head in the driver’s seat. “Are there more?”
Cherise rolled her eyes at him. “Would you believe me if I told you countless men were after me?”
“Of course.”
“After all, the woman I’m attracted to is bound to be adored by many. But even if a million people stand in my way, I’m confident I can win you back.”

Cherise’s grip on the steering wheel tightened, and she took a deep breath. “Damien.”
Damien nodded, “Mm?”
“Who taught you these cheesy lines?”
Even Soren wouldn’t use such clichéd phrases in kindergarten!
Damien smiled faintly, “I picked them up from your novels.”
Cherise frowned. “My novels?”
“Yes.” The man continued smiling. “I remember that you enjoyed reading novels.”
“I found and read a few of your favorite novels that I remembered. I also picked up a few lines from them. After that, the man looked at Cherise, very pleased with himself. “Are you moved?”
“Yes.” Cherise stopped the car. “I’m so moved that I want to kick you out of the car.”
Damien looked out the car window with a frown.
They were outside Cherise’s house, which was now also Damien’s home.
