Chapter 81 Lucy and Jacob’s Common Interest
Damien smiled to himself, savoring his small victory. He called out to his housekeeper, “Send the voice Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
message to Randall. Tell him I’m here to collect the debt that he owes me.”
Damien sighed as he rubbed his temples.
Cherise and Jacob did not apologize to Cressa till the end. However, the police did. nothing to them
because they knew what had happened – after all, the red welt on Jacob’s face said everything.
After he had settled all that he needed to do, Jacob and Cherise left the police station.
As they were exiting the doors, a young woman dashed past them.
“Are you alright, Cherry?”
“I’m fine,” Cherise smiled at Lucy before tilting her head towards Jacob, adding, “he’s not too well,
though.”
Lucy turned around to observe Jacob and the handprint on his face.
“Hi, I don’t believe we had the opportunity to meet yet. You are…?”
“This is my husband’s physician, Dr. Caldwell.”
“This is my close friend, Lucy. Lucy Staber.”
Jacob frowned. “Are you the ‘friend’ who prescribed the ‘special medication for men’ to Damien?”
Lucy, initially rather jovial, suddenly felt her guard go up. “Oh! Oh yes. That was me.”
Jacob jingled his car keys as he turned to the car park. “I guess we can say that we have something in
common.”
Cherise turned towards the doctor, puzzled. “What do you mean?”
Jacob opened the car door dramatically before turning to Lucy with a devilish grin.
“Lucy and I have a common interest – we’re both extremely concerned with Damien’s nighttime
activities.”
He then turned his attention towards Cherise while grinning to himself.
“Please tell us, how are you and Damien doing at night? Havin’ fun?”

Realization dawned on Cherise, causing her to blush furiously. “Hey! I… That’s a secret!”
Observing Cherise’s embarrassment, Jacob could not help but laugh to himself. Where did her ferocity
go? She was going to beat up Cressa just now, but now, she’s blushing like a teenage girl thinking
about her crush.
Damien won the jackpot this time. Cherise would never fight back even when Cressa insulted her. and
yet whenever anyone insinuated anything unbecoming about Damien, she would fight back.
“Your Excellence, your ride has arrived. We will need to transport you ladies home soon.”
Cherise glowered at him. “I would get in, but you had to make it awkward by talking about Damien and
me, didn’t you?”
“What did I ask you about?”
Cherise sighed loudly as she stared at Jacob’s indignant expression.
Lucy stepped forward between them and beckoned Cherise to get into the car. “What are you afraid of,
Cherry? You can always complain to your husband if he asks weird. questions like that again, right?”
Jacob turned towards Lucy, surprise blooming on his face like fire in a dry forest. “You’re
smart!”
After Jacob dropped Lucy home, he sped towards the Lenoir Residences.
However, Cherise caught sight of a sale displayed on an LED screen in front of a fish market and
quickly requested Jacob to pull to the side.
“I need to buy some fish,” the young woman explained.
“Why?”
“I wanted to make something for my husband.
Cherise always thought she had a good fish recipe but never had the opportunity to cook for Damien.
Seeing the sale on the way home was a sign for me to cook for Damien!
However, Jacob did not pull to the side of the road.
“I would stop if you said you wanted to cook for your dinner. However, if it was for Damien, you picked
the wrong day to cook. He would not eat dinner tonight.”

“Why?” Cherise asked, a thousand questions babbling up in her mind. She had never seen Damien
