Chapter 184 The Jade Pendant

Despite them being in the right and her husband standing up for both her and her uncle, nobody seemed pleased.

Yet, she didn’t blame her husband-she found it rather satisfying.

“Cherry!”

As Cherise and Damien started to walk back, Jack, who had been observing, approached with a playful grin. “Who would’ve thought you’d still remember me after moving to the city?”

“Let’s not head home just yet,” he suggested. “Why not come to my place and meet my chubby little ones? The older one just turned four and can call you Auntie now!”

Cherise bit her lip and glanced at Damien. “Dear…”

“Go ahead if you want to go,” Damien had a faint smile on his lips and said calmly, “I haven’t heard children’s laughter in years.”

“Alright!” Cherry responded eagerly.

Cherise’s eyes gleamed, and her face lit up with joy as Damien nodded.

“Mr. Lenoir truly has my respect,” Jack said.

Leading the way, Jack smiled as he spoke, “It is rare to have someone born in the city who holds rural life so close to their heart. I take back what I said before, questioning whether Cherise would happily marry a disabled man.”

“Only someone who genuinely holds her dear in his heart would bother to remember these little details about the countryside,” Jack said warmly.

Having been through life’s ups and downs, he could sense Damien’s sincerity towards Cherise.

Hence, he was particularly friendly towards Damien.

Their warm exchange continued as the trio reached Jack’s home. Cherise enthusiastically joined the children, and her laughter harmonized with their playful giggles as they affectionately referred to her as ‘Auntie.”

Jack poured a cup of tea for Damien, his eyes glinting with curiosity. “Any plans on having kids with Cherise?”
