Chapter 729 Mommy, Are You in There?

“It hasn’t been easy for us to be together again. Please don’t test me anymore, okay?” The man’s deep voice

instantly softened Cherise’s heart.

She pursed her lips and snuggled into his embrace. She felt his breath and the rhythm of his heartbeat. “But Lucy

was merely trying to protect me. You treated me poorly in the past, and she was just concerned that I might get

hurt again.”

“Don’t accuse Lucy of making things difficult for you. She wouldn’t even try to help if she weren’t my friend.” She

looked up. “She was ultimately just trying to protect me. Just like me. I don’t like Lennon when I see him now

because he wasn’t kind to Lucy.”

Damien sighed nonchalantly and nodded. “So, should I join you in giving Lennon a hard time in the future?”

Cherise was taken aback. After a moment, she hugged and kissed him. “Does it mean you’re no longer upset with

Lucy?”

“I was never upset with her to begin with.” The man ruffled Cherise’s hair in exasperation. “She’s just a young girl.

Why would I be upset with her?”

“We’re the same age. Lucy is my classmate and best friend. Cherise pouted. “If she’s a young girl, what does that

make me?”

“Guess.

“I don’t want to. In any case, I’m Mrs. Lenoir, your wife.” Cherise pursed her lips and snuggled into his arms. “If you

think I’m too young or immature, it reflects your bad taste!”

Damien chuckled helplessly and stroked her hair. “I have impeccable taste!”

They lay in the room for a long time until a child’s clear voice rang from outside, “Mommy, are you in there?”

Cherise was startled. For a moment, she was unsure whether to respond or stay silent. Because the one outside the

door… was Soren.

“Mommy, don’t remain silent. I know you’re in there. Outside, the impeccably dressed boy was knocking. on the

door helplessly. “Mommy, Frances has prepared breakfast. Would you like to come out and eat breakfast?”

“Also, I need your signature on yesterday’s homework. We’re both eager to get to kindergarten. Otherwise, we

wouldn’t disturb you.”

Cherise was flabbergasted. It wasn’t always a blessing for her child to be so sensible….

She cleared her throat lightly. “Alright, Soren. Wait for me downstairs. I’ll be down shortly.”

“Ren, you’re so clever!” As her voice trailed off, Serafina’s squeal rang outside the door. “How did you know

Mommy was in Mr. Handsome’s room? I’ve been searching for Mommy for ages! You’re amazing, Ren!”

Soren’s calm voice rang outside the door. “I didn’t even have to think about it.”

“Why? I don’t understand!”

“Um…” Soren cleared his throat, “Ahem. You’ll understand when you grow up.”

Cherise exited Damien’s room with flushed cheeks. The two children outside were impeccably dressed. With their

litle backpacks slung over their shoulders, it was as though they were waiting outside the principal’s office as they

leaned against the corridor wall.

Upon seeing Cherise emerge, Soren pursed his lips and winked at Cherise. “You have no self-restraint, Mommy. You

were won over so easily.”

Cherise blushed.

Serafina quickly ran over and shielded Cherise behind her. “Ren, you can’t speak about Mommy like that. Mommy

just likes Mr. Handsome, like me!”

Soren rolled his eyes at Serafina in exasperation. “You’re just as infatuated as Mommy.”

Serafina retorted proudly, “Hmph! Our teacher said it’s endearing for girls to be a little infatuated!”

The two children’s innocent voices instantly lifted Cherise’s spirits.
