Chapter 725 Don’t Go
“That’s enough. Cherise raised her hand. “You don’t get to decide if a woman is fond of you. It’s up to
the
woman.”
“I’ve decided to take tomorrow off to focus on my academic research at home. Once things have died.
down in a few days, I’ll return to work at the institute and publish my latest thesis. That’s the plan. Now,
drive me to the institute to collect some materials”
Damien sighed and nodded in resignation. He retrieved the car keys from Mr. Kolson and drove
Cherise to the research institute.
It was already past eight in the evening when they reached the institute, and the building was shrouded

darkness.
After exiting the car, Cherise took the flashlight she always kept in her bag and the institute keys she
had previously borrowed from her supervisor. She briskly unlocked the door and strode in.
Damien frowned and shook his head lightly as he watched the petite woman’s figure. Who said women
fear the dark and need someone to accompany them? Cherry isn’t scared of the dark. He shrugged
helplessly and followed Cherise into the building.
Since Cherise held the flashlight, Damien didn’t bother illuminating his path. He just trailed behind her.
“Bang! A loud noise suddenly reverberated through the corridor.
“Ah!” The woman screamed and instantly leaped into Damien’s arms, her small frame trembling
slightly.
“It’s alright.” Damien patted her back. He took the flashlight from her and scanned their surroundings.
They had bumped into an open door, and the wind slammed it shut. “One of the doors just closed. It’s
okay.”
“A door… closed?!” Laying in Damien’s arms, Cherise stiffened. “We’re standing here, and neither of us
shut the door… So who closed it?” Fear was palpable in her clear voice.
This was the first time Damien had seen Cherise so timid. “The wind blew, and the door shut.” The man
chuckled helplessly and pinched her nose. “Aren’t you doctors supposed to be brave?”
Cherise pursed her lips. Her expression changed slightly, and she coughed as she left his embrace. “I
just… just suspected someone was following us, that’s all.”
She let go of Damien, snatched the flashlight from his hand, and continued to walk forward.
“Hold on. The man frowned slightly and grabbed the flashlight back from her. “Stay here and wait for

If he remembered correctly, the institute’s circuit breaker was in that direction.
“Don’t…” Damien had just walked away when a pair of delicate hands wrapped around his waist
anxiously. “Don’t go…” The woman’s soft voice was like a drug, instantly making Damien’s heart race.
The man pursed his lips lightly. I’m going to turn on the circuit breaker.” His voice was low but gentle as
he reached out his slender hand to hold Cherise’s hand. “Everything will be fine once the lights are on
Be good.”
Cherise pursed her lips and responded softly, but her hands still didn’t leave Damien’s waist. She bit
her lip Take me with you.”
Damen chuckled in exasperation. I’m just going down one floor. Wait for me here”
“I don’t want to Cherise rarely behaved so coyly towards him after they reconciled “I want to go with
you.”
