My Blind Husband

Chapter 893 Candace’s Facade 

She had portrayed herself as a pitiful, helpless woman targeted by the president’s domineering wife.

Little did she know that Cherise had secretly recorded their conversation last night!

If her colleagues were to hear her words from last night, her sterling reputation would crumble in an

instant!

Seeing Candace’s silence, Cherise smirked. She patronizingly patted Candace’s shoulder and said,

“You’re naive to think you can sabotage me with public hate and opinion, my dear.”

Candace gritted her teeth and glared at Cherise with intense hatred. “Even if I said something I

shouldn’t have, you have no right to pressure Mr. Lenoir to fire me!”.

“You’re consumed with your doctor-patient duties, unaware of the demands and pressures of his job! I

was handpicked by Mr. Lenoir to share his workload. Just because you dislike me and fear I’ll steal his

attention, you coerced him into transferring me back to my previous position?! Being the president’s

wife, it seems you’re oblivious to the challenges he faces!”

Cherise sneered coldly at Candace’s accusation.

Casting her eyes over the gathering, she continued, “The decision for Candace to resume her original

role was made jointly by my husband and me. And as for sharing his workload, I believe it’s best for me

to handle it personally, given its demands.”

Without pause, Damien, who had stood steadfastly beside her, added, “My wife will be heading to HR

shortly to take on her new role as my personal assistant.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

With a firm and piercing gaze, he surveyed the crowd. “She’s here to assist me directly. As graceful

and thoughtful as she is to me. I won’t tolerate any further gossip about her in this company. Now, get

back to work!”

His authoritative voice echoed through the corridor, causing a momentary pause before the employees

scattered like startled deer.

A few moments later, only Cherise, Damien, and Candace remained.

Candace stood her ground, her expression defiant as she locked eyes with Cherise.

Unfazed, Cherise maintained her smile. “Any other thoughts you’d like to share?”

“I have serious doubts about your ability to serve as the president’s assistant, Mrs. Lenoir.”

With the facade now shattered, Candace knew her career advancement in the company was at risk.

She now faced a choice, either push Cherise back into her place or resign herself.

The Weiss Group had attempted to poach her to join their team just days earlier.

If Damien failed to handle the situation to her satisfaction, she would help the Weiss Group overtake

the Lenoir Group, potentially rising to become Cherise and Damien’s immediate superior!

With this in mind, Candace straightened her posture and addressed Cherise directly. “Mrs. Lenoir,

forgive me for being blunt. While you may excel in the medical field, your qualifications as a corporate

assistant are lacking compared to mine. When the president selected me for the role, he valued my

exceptional memory and diligent work ethic. I stood out among my peers, whereas you have little to no

experience in this area. I must say it’s rather far-fetched for you to suddenly become the president’s

assistant, don’t you think?”

Cherise remained silent.

Damien smirked. “It appears I can’t appoint whomever I please as president. Should I consult you next

time, Candace?”

“That’s not what I meant-!” Candace interjected hastily. Despite her reservations, she still harbored

respect and concern for Damien. His comment made her uneasy. “I’m only looking out for the

company’s best interests! I-”

Cherise smiled faintly and met Candace’s gaze. “Very well. You believe I lack capability, and you are

confident in yours.”
