NovelOnlineChapter 419 Prodigious Assassin
Frances finally nodded in agreement and quietly stepped aside. Cherise enjoyed her breakfast while
keeping a watchful eye on Blake. She remembered her first encounter with Blake when Nicky had
come to her school to torment her.
This young man not only dealt a heavy blow to Nicky but also took him to the rooftop garden, almost
throwing him over the edge…
During that initial encounter, Cherise’s impression of Blake was nothing but fear and cruelty. However,
over time, she came to realize that he was actually a simple and endearing boy.
On the way to school, Cherise asked Damien about Blake.
“He was taken into the assassin organization at a young age and treated like a lab rat. He had training
but no friends, which is why he appears the way he does now,” Damien explained as he drove, gripping

Cherise’s lips tightened. “Blake used to be… an assassin?”
“Yes.” Damien continued to drive with an unceasing grin. “A prodigious assassin.”
“Three years ago, when he was ten, he could ruthlessly eliminate trained attack dogs at the assassin
base. So the organization tried to have him assassinate people.”
Cherise’s eyes widened in sheer disbelief.
A ten-year-old… taking lives….
“I was his initial target and his ultimate one. Damien looked forward, the unrestrained grin revealing
itself. “Those who sent him to kill me probably assumed I was blind and had limited. mobility.”
To any trained assassin, I was an easy target. That’s why they sent Blake to assassinate me, thinking a
single, young, and trained assassin would be enough to take my life. But Blake not only spared my life,
he became part of my team.”
Cherise was speechless with shock. She had always sensed that Blake was different from other
children and possessed immense power. However, she never imagined that Blake, who stayed by
Damien’s side, had such a backstory….
“Is it really that astonishing?” Damien parked the car and helplessly looked at Cherise. There are even
more staggering and legendary stories than this. If you want to hear more, I can gradually tell you.”
Cherise quickly waved her hand. “No, I don’t-I don’t want to hear anymore.”
Blake was one of the few people closest to her, yet she remained oblivious to the details of his

to me!”
Without waiting for his response, she grabbed her backpack and dashed onto the school campus.
Damien stood in place, watching her disappearing form with a helpless smile on his face.
Damien couldn’t help but worry that if a small tale about Blake’s history was already challenging. to
accept, coping with the harsh reality of her biological parents’ shared history and the fact that they
would never reconcile in this lifetime would be even harder.
The man subtly shook his head. When the girl’s dwindling silhouette finally vanished from his view, he
returned to the car.
As soon as he closed the car door, his phone started ringing. It was a call from Lennon. “Damien,
someone has arrived at the company.
“Who?” He knew Lennon’s judgment well. If the person in question wasn’t of great importance, Lennon
wouldn’t have urgently contacted him.
