Chapter 809 I Kept Dame Away

Gwenn commented, “Don’t bother. You and your father have never been on his radar, so anything you

say is pointless.”

She looked at Tristan with a subtle stare and continued, “I’m not here for small talk. I’m asking if you

will join forces because I can help save your father.”

After a moment, Tristan furrowed his brows and smirked bitterly, “How can I trust you? I can’t just

believe you’re reliable because you say so, can I?”

Ever since his father blinded him five years ago, Tristan had lost trust in his own parents, let alone a

woman he had never met.

Gwenn stated indifferently, “You just need to tell me if you’re willing or not. I’ll contact you after I rescue

your father and let you know what I want you to do.”

Tristan furrowed his brows again, lowering his head to assess the woman, who was a half-head shorter

than him.

The woman was dressed in a red trench coat and black boots and exuded a cool and refined

demeanor. However, her noticeable bosom caught his attention, sending a surge of blood through his

body.

Without much hesitation, he nodded, “Fine. Do I have any other choice? As long as you can get my

dad out safely. I’m in.”

The woman gave Tristan a look, extinguishing the cigarette in her hand, “Good, it’s a deal.”

Maeve and Charles, held hostage by their daughter’s sleep cycle, hurried out after Tristan.

As Maeve reached for the door, a thought caught her. She turned around with a mix of determination

and something else flickering in her gaze and headed straight for Cherise.

Maeve said, “Hey, I owe you a big apology for how I treated your mom. I was blind back then, wrapped

up in my own family mess. Family has always meant the world to me, so Dame showing you more

favor, even over his sister, confused me. But now, I see it clearly. Both of you were never wrong. It was

me who messed up.”

Damien’s jaw dropped. Maeve’s apology caught him off guard, maybe even left him speechless.

Her face displayed a range of emotions: relief at finally speaking her truth, joy at the potential

reconciliation, and perhaps a touch of uncertainty about the future.

Admitting fault wasn’t easy, but she did it. Perhaps her perspective was limited, but her actions

stemmed from a genuine desire to do what she thought was best.

Cherise pursed her lips, standing to support Maeve. “Let’s leave the past behind.”

Maeve squeezed her eyes shut, then opened them, a glint of determination replacing the tears. “No.

The past isn’t done with us.”

She continued with a voice thick with emotion. “Remember five years ago, when you and Dame had

that huge fight? I… I was there,”

Cherise’s jaw dropped, and her eyes darted between Maeve and Damien.

Damien averted his gaze, his grip on Cherise’s hand tightening. “C’mon, sis, let’s leave it be.”

Maeve ignored him, her voice gaining strength. “No, 1 have to tell you this. Cherry, if it weren’t for me

five years ago, you and Dame wouldn’t have been separated. The day you planned to meet, I… I kept

him away.”
