Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 132

Chapter 132 I Told You She’d Definitely Come 

“Your classmates spent over eight hundred thousand at Viopril Palace, claiming it’s a treat. from Ms. Shaw. Are you able to reach her?” 

Lucy was so shocked that she nearly dropped her phone. “How much did they spend?” 

“Eight hundred twenty-three thousand four hundred. The female voice on the other end. of the line was courteous yet cold. “We’re just calling to verify the situation. If Ms. Shaw doesn’t intend to pay the bill, we’ll deal with these twenty-eight individuals separately.” 

Lucy’s hand trembled. “How?” 

“We have our ways. In any case, we will recover the money. Are you able to reach Ms. Shaw? 

Lucy almost freaked out. “Wait. We’ll come right over.” 

What a bunch of naive fools! How dare they step into the restaurant in Cherise’s absence?! 

When Cherise said she planned to stand them up in the afternoon, Lucy thought it wasn’t a big deal. After all, any sensible person would not enter the restaurant if the host didn’t. show up. But alas, her classmates clearly lacked common sense! 

She hurried into the library and dragged Cherise out. “We have to head to Viopril Palace!” 

They couldn’t watch their classmates get into trouble! 

When Cherise was dragged into a cab by Lucy, she was still holding her pen. She looked at Lucy in confusion and asked, “What happened?” 

“Sir, please head to Viopril Palace!” 

After the car started moving, Lucy heaved a sigh of relief and explained the situation to Cherise. 

Cherise was left speechless. She, too, didn’t expect her classmates to go ahead with their plans when she didn’t show up. It seemed like they truly believed she was rich and would. be willing to pay for the meal. 

Even though it was her fault to stand them up, she didn’t expect them to… 

“Quickly give Damien a call! We can’t solve the situation without money. Ask your handsome, blind husband to transfer some money first!” Lucy nudged Cherise. 

Cherise nodded, searched her pocket, and then looked helplessly at Lucy. “I came out in a

hurry and left my phone in the library.” 

Lucy shoved her phone into Cherise’s hand. “Use mine then!” 

Cherise held the phone and contemplated briefly. “I can’t remember his number…” 

Lucy was at a loss for words. Before they could think of another way, they had arrived at their destination. 

“What should we do…” Lucy was a bundle of nerves. 

Cherise led her to the entrance of Viopril Palace. “We don’t have money. There’s nothing. we can do even if we go in!” Lucy reminded her. 

“We can’t stand out here. Let’s go in and take a look.” Cherise inhaled deeply. 

After explaining their intention to the receptionist, the two ladies were led to the private room where their classmates were. In fact, it was not just a private room but an entire floor. It turned out Sunny had reserved the entire floor for the party! 

When they arrived, the room was filled with energetic music. Some were dancing and singing while others were drinking. 

When Sunny saw Cherise and Lucy walking in with the receptionist, he wore a smug smile and looked disdainfully at the receptionist. “I told you, my classmate will definitely come! She’s from a wealthy family. Hundreds of thousands is nothing to her.” 

Cherise clenched her fists at her side. They took for granted that she would foot the bill for them, disregarding the fact that she never intended to treat them to such an extravagant meal.
