Chapter 840 As Silly As You
“Perhaps he mistook me for someone else.”
Then, she asked Damien, “Have you resolved the matter here?” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
She was referring to Tristan’s embezzlement of company funds and his attempt to flee.
“Yes.” Damien nodded slightly. He entered the living room and gently placed Serafina on the sofa
before sitting down.
Frances poured tea for Cherise and Damien. “Sir, Mr. Belcourt said he had to attend to something and
left.”
Damien nodded. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. “Tristan has been handed over to the judicial
authorities. Although he didn’t take the money or escape, he secretly transferred his shares in the
Lenoir Group under his and Raymond’s names when no one was paying attention.”
Cherise didn’t know much about the company’s affairs and asked tentatively, “Are there other issues in
the company that you have to deal with?”
“Sort of.”
Damien knew she was unaware of most things outside the medical field, so he didn’t go into detail. “In
short, it’s a bit troublesome. I might not be able to spend much time with you and the children in the
coming days.”
After saying this, he looked at Cherise affectionately. “Cherise, I’m sorry. I’ve been so busy since I
returned, and I won’t have much time to spend with you.”
Cherise pursed her lips, looking at him helplessly. “Why are you apologizing to me?”
He had followed her to Ziphon because of her. After all, Zachary Miles was her friend, not his. Before
this trip to Ziphon, Damien and Zachary were, at most, acquaintances. He wouldn’t have wasted so
much time going to Ziphon if it weren’t for her.
Furthermore, he had spent a significant amount of time searching for her in Lermille before
accompanying her to Ziphon. His dedication moved her. How could she blame him for not having
enough time to be with her?
Cherise smiled and held Damien’s hand. “No need to apologize to me. You have your business to
attend to, and I have my job. Even though we love each other, we don’t always have to be together.”
She smiled after saying that. “My work at the research institute is about to get busy. From now on, you
can focus on your business, and I’ll focus on my job. We’ll work together for our home.”
“Yes, that’s great!” A childish voice declared solemnly before Damien could respond to Cherise’s
heartfelt confession. “We’ll work hard together! Ren and I will also study hard in kindergarten!”
Cherise and Damien were left speechless.
Soren immediately grabbed Serafina. “We’re going upstairs. Stop embarrassing yourself.”
But Serafina protested. “No, no! I want to stay with Daddy and Mommy!”
Soren replied, “All right then, I’ll eat the chocolate Grandpa sent by myself.”
That prompted Serafina to panic. “Boohoo! Ren, don’t leave me! I want to eat chocolate!”
Seeing Soren had gone upstairs, Serafina chased after him with her short legs. “Ren! Ren! I want to
eat chocolate!!”
“Slow down!” Frances quickly followed Serafina and held her hand, fearing she would fall.
Cherise sat on the sofa, watching her adorable daughter with a smile. “She’s a little silly.”
“She’s as silly as you.” A burst of masculine laughter sounded beside her. “Our daughter takes after
you.”
Cherise pursed her lips and turned around in protest. “I’ve told you. I’m not silly!”
