Chapter 579 I Did Nothing Wrong
Cherise entered the room with a furrowed brow, placing the condiments she was carrying next to his plate of
pierogis. “It’s getting late. I have work tomorrow, so I won’t disturb you any longer!”
With that, she turned and left.
As she reached the door, something seemed to jog her memory. She spun around, took the access card from her
pocket, and threw it onto the coffee table with a loud thu
“Here’s your card back. Please keep your distance from my children in the future. Thank you!”
And with that, she swiftly exited.
Damien watched her retreating figure, his brows wrinkling in confusion. He couldn’t help but wonder, What upset
her?
Just moments ago, she had a pleasant demeanor and even personally prepared condiments for him. Why did her
attitude suddenly change?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe shook his head lightly. Women were unpredictable and difficult to understand.
Cherise was just as erratic and mysterious as the woman who had just called him.
Taking a deep breath, he looked down and continued eating his pierogis.
Although the pierogis were slightly bland, there was no denying that her cooking skills remained unchanged after
five years.
These pierogis were just as delicious as the ones she handmade five years ago.
Damien had missed her cooking so much that he polished off all the pierogis in front of him.
The next morning, Serafina realized that her access card was missing.
The little girl cleverly deduced that her mother had confiscated it.
Serafina sat quietly during breakfast and the car ride to kindergarten. She didn’t utter a single word in the back
seat.
On the other hand, Soren was in high spirits.
The boy beamed at Cherise, “Mommy, did you sleep well last night?”
Cherise’s hands froze slightly on the steering wheel. “Not bad.”
“I noticed you weren’t home when I woke up to use the bathroom last night.”
Soren blinked at Cherise through the rearview mirror. “Where did you go, Mommy?”
Her son’s innocent and earnest expression caused Cherise’s brows to furrow slightly.
She took a deep breath. “Serafina, do you know what you did wrong?”
Serafina hesitated for a moment and shrunk back in her seat. “I didn’t do anything wrong.”
“You didn’t do anything wrong?”

Cherise’s frown deepened. “You haven’t been eating at home for the past few days. Did you have nice treats at
someone else’s house instead? Have I ever told you not to simply accept food from others or enter other people’s
houses? Do you think I don’t know that you’ve been sneaking over to someone else’s house to eat strawberries for
the past few days?!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSerafina pursed her lips and sat in the corner, looking wronged. “I didn’t sneak over. That man invited me.”
“Have I ever told you not to trust strangers easily or accept food from strangers?”
Cherise spoke coldly and harshly, her expression stern.
I’ve spoiled my children. That’s why Serafina would do such a thing
Thankfully, it was Damien living across from us this time. What if it were someone else? What if it were someone
with malicious intentions? What would have happened?
I’ve been too lenient as a mother!
Serafina looked aggrieved. “I don’t think that man is a stranger.”
“Why is that?”
As the little girl spoke, she subconsciously glanced at Soren’s face. “Because that man looks exactly like Ren. That’s
why I don’t think he’s a bad person.”
After that, Serafina blinked at Cherise. “Mommy, have you seen that man’s face?”
“He looks exactly like Ren
Cherise’s brows furrowed deeply.
“Even if he looks exactly like your brother, he’s still a stranger!”
