Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 1159

Chapter 1159 Showing Up Unannounced

It was well past ten in the evening. Earlier, Mandy's assistant had attempted to secure a hotel room, but she had rebuffed it. She

hade here for Cherise and Lucy, so staying in a hotel seemed pointless. But now, neither woman could be reached, and

Damien was nowhere to be found either!

"Ms. Wool, why don't youe to the hotel room | reserved... and spend the night there?" Mandy's assistant asked nervously as he

lugged two suitcases behind Mandy.

Mandy rolled her eyes and gave him a quick look, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

Taken aback, her assistant nodded, "Yeah."

She narrowed her eyes slightly and flashed a charming smile, "Look for her number and give her a ring."

Instantly, alarm bells blared in the assistant's mind. "Ms. Wool... are you...?"

"Tell your girlfriend you wantto stay the night with you," Mandy pressed.

Her assistant hesitated. "Ms. Wool... | don't think that's necessary..."

"Is your guilty conscience working?" Mandy shot him a disdainful glance. "Take the bags to the hotel. I'll look for my friends."

"But... aren't your friends... unreachable?" The assistant pursed his lips, concerned.

"They can't hide forever!" Mandy pursed her lips and extended her hand to hail a taxi. "Taketo the house of Colin Gray, Gray

Group's president!" She recalled Lucy staying there after marrying him. If Lucy wasn't picking up, Mandy would just show up

unannounced!

The taxi had traversed for thirty minutes before halting in front of Colin's villa. Mandy settled the fare and stepped out, gazing up

at the modestly designed house adorned with cherry blossom trees. A wry smile tugged at her lips. "Since when did Lucy develop a

liking for cherry blossoms?" With that thought, she strode towards the villa's entrance and rang the doorbell impatiently. "Open

up!”

Only Colin and Alexis were at hinside the villa at that moment. Alexis, upon learning that his mom and Cherise had gone out

together, obediently finished his dinner and retired to bed.

Colin, in a foul mood, had taken a quick, hot shower and slouched onto the sofa in the living room, engrossed in a horror movie.

Just as the female ghost in red made her chilling appearance on screen, the sound of the doorbell pierced the air. Startled, Colin

shivered, only rising once he regained hisposure. Assuming it was Lucy returning, he opened the door without hesitation.

To his surprise, when the door swung open, he was met not by Lucy but by a tall woman clad in black leggings and a striking red

trench coat. The dim glow of the moonlight cast an ethereal glow upon her fiery red lips. She looked haughty yet stunning.

In the next instant, the woman's red lips parted slightly. "Wow! You look just like Damien!" Her gaze lingered on Colin, wrapped in

nothing but a towel, focusing on his lean abdomen. "If | didn't know Damien has eight-pack abs rather than a skinny torso like

yours, | might have mistaken you for him!" She smirked and glanced at Colin. "You two really do resemble each other, huh?"

Colin was dumbstruck. With a resounding bang, the villa door slammed shut, leaving Mandy stranded outside, abandoned without

mercy.

"Hey!" After feeling briefly dazed at being stranded, Mandy persisted in pressing the doorbell frantically. "Are you serious? Are you

really going to leaveout here like this? I'm a guest, a friend of Lucy's! Colin Gray! Open up!"

After three minutes of Lucy's relentless knocking, Colin finally swung the door open, clearly irritated. "What on earth do you want?"

Mandy rolled her eyes, about to retort, when she noticed Colin was now dressed in pajamas.
