Chapter 690 Emotionally Drained.
âFive years ago, I trusted your words, believed we needed a break, and let you slip out of my life for five years,â he
confessed.
âI promise, no matter what comes our way, I wonât let go of your hand again.â
Damienâs intense and unwavering gaze mirrored Cheriseâs determination when she vowed to bear his child.
Cherise felt her throat tighten as she looked at Damienâs determined face.
Finally, she could only sigh softly, âAlright.â
âBut I hope you can sort things out with her soon.â
âI insist that we prevent a recurrence of disturbances like the intrusion by the Mortis sisters into our private space,â
Cherise said sternly.
Damien pressed his lips together and nodded emphatically, âI promise.â
Finding solace in his words, Cherise sighed heavily, leaning her weary head on his shoulder, and murmured, âIâm
just so tired.â
She was exhausted.
After a long dayâs journey, she was not only physically tired but also emotionally drained.
Every day spent with Damien was a test of endurance.
As Mandy kept an eye on the Tanner family, the looming question persisted: What if shareholders discovered her
amicable relationship with Damien? How would they react?
Yet, she couldnât bring herself to reject Damien.
The weight of pressure had led her here, convincing herself she was only taking the children
for a short vacation.
As she disembarked from the plane, she was immediately ambushed by the unexpected reappearance of his
lifesaver.
The heartbreak that had shattered her five years ago was still palpable
But
She closed her eyes and the indignant voice of Mandy during last night phone call blared
âCherry, I heard it from Lucy!â
âYou canât deceive yourself.â
âIf you can find affection for someone new, you will have moved on over these five years.
âEven with someone as perfect as Zachary by your side, it appears thereâs still a lingering soft spot in your heart for
Damien.â
âWhy should we worry about the shareholdersâ opinions and actions? Even if Damien is considered as the Tanner
and Miles familiesâ enemy, think about the possibility of creating a crisis that only Damien can resolve.â
âWouldnât these profit-driven individuals then come to hold Damien in high esteem?â
âDonât overthink this. If Damien is still worth your effort, give him another chance and, more importantly, give
yourself another chanceâ¦â
Cherise closed her eyes, feeling the comforting warmth of the man beside her and his steady
breath.
She didnât decide to come to Adania with him lightly.
Yet, she braced herself for the storm that awaited.
She also hoped that he wouldnât make her regret she had the chance to confront those
storms.
âTake a rest.â
The manâs large hand gently cradled her shoulder, allowing her body to rest comfortably against his. His voice, low
and soothing, cooed, âWhen we get home, Iâll carry you inside
Mm.
His words held a captivating spell
After hearing his comforting words Cherise soon fell asleep on his shoulder
âHey
Suren cradling his sleeping sisters shoulder eyed Damien wandy and sundhed, You
