Chapter 1110 Avoiding the Doghouse
"You should take a look in the mirror," Damien remarked with a disdainful glance. "You look just like me. Honestly, countless women
are smitten with my appearance."
Cherise raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Then, Mr. Lenoir, care to share how many women are infatuated with you?"
Damien fell silent, the atmosphere in the living room growing slightly tense. Clearing his throat slightly, Damien turned to Colin.
"While many women may be drawn to me, I've always remained devoted to my wife." He then advised Colin solemnly, "So, as a
man, you should uphold your responsibilities. Remember, regardless of how many women pursue you, always stay faithful to the

Colin fell silent. Damien is really desperate to avoid being in the doghouse with his wife. But is it really appropriate to say such
things to me? I'm a single man who has never been in a relationship? After a moment of contemplation, Colin finally cto a

should..."
"You should join us in inviting Lucy out for a discussion about your marriage," Damien interjected.
"Alright!" Colin exclaimed, waving his hand decisively. "I'm getting married!" Yet, as the words left his mouth, he couldn't shake the
feeling that his actions were hasty. "Is your friend certain she doesn't want to get married? Will she do anything to me?" Colin
turned to Cherise with pursed lips. "Could she develop feelings forjust because | resemble Mr. Lenoir... | mean, my brother? Has
she ever... harbored inappropriate thoughts about Damien?"
Cherise narrowed her eyes. If they weren't currently in Gray Residence, and if Colin wasn't potentially Damien's biological brother,
she would have shown him the door with a swift kick! "Don't worry, my friend won't fall for you just because of your looks," she
stated icily, her gaze piercing. "But you should watch out. If she does marry you and ever gets upset with my husband, she'lle
to you to let off steam. My friend is quite proficient in self-defense."
Colin remained silent, unsure of how to respond.
Cherise had arranged for Lucy to meet Colin at a café near Gray Residence. Initially, Lucy had intended to bring her son, Alexis,

would scare Colin away, so she insisted Lucye alone.
When Lucy arrived, slightly tardy, Cherise and Colin were already on their third cup of coffee. As the café door swung open, a
woman clad in black pants and a white blouse entered. "Lucy, over here!" Cherise called out, waving and offering a weing
smile. Lucy returned the smile and made her way towards them.
The approaching woman was tall and slim, with long, slender legs exuding an effortless grace, making her look very approachable.
Colin found himself momentarily taken aback. "Is this... your friend?" he asked with a hint of surprise in his voice.
Cherise affirmed with a nod. "Yes."
Colin was momentarily speechless from surprise. He had envisioned Cherise's friend as petite and delicate as she was, assuming a
similar demeanor. Yet, the woman approaching them... was curvaceous with a sensual figure.
