Cherise was shocked and quickly covered his mouth. “You… stop with all this nonsense!”
Damien smiled softly and kissed her hand. “My dear, I cannot imagine my life without
you.”
He held Cherise in his arms, gently kissing her, reflecting her determined and unwavering gaze. “I have
been contemplating this for quite some time.”
“I have come to realize… I cannot live without you any longer.”

your uncle… well, I used to.”

“As time went on, I realized that if you despised your uncle because of me, you would choose me over
him and stay… I made up my mind to let go of that hatred.”
Cherise stood there, completely taken aback, her eyes fixed on the man before her, her face displaying
astonishment.
For a brief moment, she found herself speechless, unsure of how to react.

Tears welled up and rolled down her cheeks, and she turned around, burying her face into Damien’s
chest. “1… I don’t want to leave you either…”
“Silly girl, then let’s not part ways.
Damien embraced her tightly, showering her with kisses. “Let’s leave the past behind us.”
“You and I… cannot change the past.”
“But the future… we still have a long time ahead of us.”
He playfully nuzzled her like a child. “How about we make a deal?”

“I have endured thirteen years of ridicule, pretending to be blind because of your illness.”
“How about, as payback, you tolerate me for thirteen years? Let’s make it a twenty-year- arrangement

Cherise found his calculation rather amusing. “What kind of math is this?”

She couldn’t resist and shrugged, smiling. “Alright, I promise.”

stayed in yet. How about we go there now?”
Cherise was momentarily surprised, then remembered that there was no coastline in Adania.
In fact, he had driven her to the seaside in Yatesville.
But…
“When did you buy a villa?”
He was never the type to interact with strangers, let alone go through the trouble of purchasing a
villa!
“A few days ago.”
The man gave a slight, warm smile. “The house is under your name.”
“Why mine?”
He crouched before her and motioned for her to hop on his back. “Because I didn’t want you to walk

He lifted her onto his back gently, a faint smile playing on his lips. “Seaside villas don’t come cheap. I
spent over six million on this.”
