Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 1105

Chapter 1105 Mrs Gray's Condition
As everyone raised their glasses at the table, Anthony reluctantly raised his own with a stormy expression. He muttered, "To Mrs. Lenoir." Even Cherise couldn't help but notice the hesitance etched on his face.

After the toast, Damien broached the question, which weighed heavily on his mind with wrinkled brows. "Why haven't I seen Mrs. Gray?" His primary reason for being there was to track down Mrs. Gray and unravel the mysteries surrounding her connection to his mother. Regardless of whether Colin was his biological twin, Damien needed to have a candid conversation with Mrs. Gray. After all, the details she had shared with Colin about his background raised suspicions.

"My wife, she..." Anthony started with furrowed brows, but before he could finish, Jude cut in sharply, "My mother won't be able to join us, Mr. Lenoir."

Damien frowned. "Why not?"

"My mother was recently involved in a car accident and is still unconscious," Jude stated the harsh truth indifferently. "Due to her condition, my father rushed to transfer control of Gray Group to Coles so he could focus on caring for her." As he spoke, he shot a smirk in Damien's direction. "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Lenoir."

Damien's eyes narrowed, a flicker of deadly anger passing through them. Since leaving the island, an entire day had elapsed. Not once had Colin or Jude mentioned Mrs. Gray being unconscious whenever she was brought up. Colin had even talked about Mrs. Gray multiple times. He had confided in them that she told him about his family background, but he never brought up that she was in an accident!

It was evident that Jude had orchestrated this plan. His aim was to stir Damien's curiosity about Mrs. Gray, draw him in, secure his voluntary agreement to Colin's request, and then disclose the truth about Mrs. Gray's unconscious state only after Damien was already committed and had no way to back down at Gray Residence. It was a crafty and devious strategy.
