Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 12 Stop!

The black Maserati drove through the city streets and stopped steadily before Adania University’s study hall.

Cherise exited the car without thanking Mr. Kolson before swiftly running toward her study

room.

Not only were her class notes in the study room, but various award certificates she had received in the past were also there, along with the cards her grandmother had given her during her birthday

every year.

The cards were roughly made, and the words on them were messy. Other people might even think of them as trash.

But these were Cherise’s most precious items!

The study hall was packed with people early in the morning. A crowd of people were waiting for the elevator.

Just as Cherise was waiting for the elevator, Lucy called her again.

“Cherry, when are you arriving? They’re going overboard!”

Cherise could hear Lucy’s tearful voice through the phone!

Cherise’s heart tightened viciously.

She took a deep breath and decided not to wait for the elevator. She rushed into the stairwell at the side.

It’s just on the eighth floor. It’s no big deal!

She hadn’t eaten anything in the morning, so her legs felt weak when she reached the eighth

floor.

But she couldn’t be bothered with the exhaustion in her legs. She ran frantically toward her study room when she arrived on the eighth floor.

People were guarding the entire floor.

Only Lucy was waiting anxiously in the corridor alone.

Near Lucy was a group of people dressed in black throwing her books and notes into the fire.

Cherise’s precious notes blazed in the fire!

A man dressed in black was sitting leisurely next to the fire. “What a mess.”

As he spoke, he picked up a first–place certificate from a physics competition in Adania and tore it
