Dark Secrets of the Blind Husband

Chapter 779 Lyra Tries On Wedding Dresses 

To Kareen’s surprise, she didn’t feel annoyed when she saw Cherise walk in. Unexpectedly, she found herself agreeing with Cherise’s question.

“Hold on,” Cherise exclaimed as they left the hospital and got into the car. “What’s the deal with inviting Uncle Raymond?”

Damien offered a warm smile, gently stroking her hair. “As I mentioned before, I’m hoping to reignite an old flame of his.”

Cherise furrowed her brow in confusion. “Does he have a connection to someone in the Miles family?”

Damien’s smile remained steady. “Exactly. Remember what Mrs. Miles mentioned earlier?”

A wave of realization washed over Cherise as she gasped, covering her mouth with her hand. “You mean… the man who pretended to be your father…?”

Damien leaned back, resting his chin on Cherise’s head, his voice low and firm. “Yes, he’s the main suspect. He was always in a hurry; he looked like me and wore the Lenoir family’s exclusive cufflinks. He used my father’s identity to live a luxurious life. He was familiar with my father’s business and its secrets.”

“There’s no one else. My father had come to Europe. It wasn’t about causing trouble, but catching Uncle Raymond, who was living the high life here.”

Cherise nodded, understanding washing over her. “So, Uncle Raymond is indeed a main suspect.”

“That’s why it was crucial for him to attend Zachary’s wedding,” Damien explained, his fingers gently stroking her hair. “Since Nick cut ties with him and left home years ago, he’s become a recluse. He wouldn’t travel to Ziphon unless something significant was at stake.”

“But Zachary’s wedding, along with the possibility of a partnership with the Miles family, might be enough to lure him out.”

With these words, he handed Cherise a new phone. “Take this.”

Cherise frowned, confusion clouding her features as she looked at the device. “Why? My phone works perfectly fine.”

What was the reason behind this sudden gift?

“This phone has a special mission. Once Uncle Raymond arrives in Ziphon, you’ll use it to arrange a meeting with Mrs. Miles, pretending to be him. This task won’t be too challenging for a skilled detective like yourself.

“I’m not the right person for this; online scams and con artists are way out of my league. You’d be better off finding someone else,” Cherise said, pushing the phone back towards Damien.

Damien pretended to be concerned. “Do you know anyone who can work their magic on middle-aged women?”

Cherise instinctively shook her head, but then a light bulb went off. “Actually, yes, I do!”

She took out her phone. “Syatt is our man!”

Damien was momentarily speechless at Cherise’s suggestion. He had explicitly asked for a man with exceptional verbal and charming skills who could manipulate Patricia into revealing crucial information.

And here she was, proposing her suitor, Syatt, for the role! He asked with a hint of amusement in his voice, “Are you suggesting I put your suitor to the test? Aren’t you worried I might get a little jealous?”

Cherise blinked innocently, her determination unwavering. “Then let’s be jealous together! Syatt is perfect for the role!”

And as it turned out, Cherise’s assessment of Syatt was accurate. This man, well-versed in online romance, had quickly captivated Patricia within three days of texting her on WhatsApp. Syatt’s charm and smooth- talking skills were undoubtedly effective. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Patricia, completely infatuated, even invited Syatt to her “nephew’s” wedding!

Following Damien’s instructions, Syatt gladly accepted the invitation and arranged a secret meeting with Patricia in the backyard of Miles Manor during the wedding reception.

With Patricia out of the way, Cherise focused on helping Lyra prepare for the big day.

Looking back, she couldn’t help but wonder if she had ever been this dedicated even when preparing for her wedding five years ago.
