Chapter 566 Damien’s Search
“He didn’t choose to have such a father or family either.”
“It’s just like how you couldn’t believe that your uncle would commit arson and murder. Understandably, he didn’t believe his father was a rapist.”
“If you have feelings for him, don’t overthink it.”
Cherise sighed and rested her weight on the table, exhaling softly.
After lunch, Cherise made her rounds and checked on her patients in their rooms.
Syatt was the last patient she visited.
“Mrs. Lenoir.”
Cherise frowned. “Please don’t call me that.”
“Alright, alright.”
Syatt nodded and eagerly took Cherise’s hand. “Mrs. Lenoir, when will you reconcile with Mr. Lenoir?”
Cherise was flabbergasted.
She found it somewhat amusing. “Did Damien drug you? Why have you suddenly started defending him?”
“He didn’t drug me.”
Syatt took a deep breath and pulled out his cell phone. “Mr. Lenoir showed me a video.”
“Take a look.”
Cherise furrowed her brows and leaned in.
His phone screen played scenes captured with a handheld video camcorder. The footage showcased Shaw’s village.
“Cherise, this is Shaw’s village. You probably don’t recognize it anymore, do you?”
“It’s because of the money I invested with Jack last time. He really did lead the village to prosperity.”
“Uncle Shaw and Aunt Wanda moved back while Sky and Tay got into college,”
The scene shifted to a small bridge and river in the village. “You and Blake used to catch fish here, and I could only watch from the side.”
“Cherise, many fish are in the river now, and I’d love to catch fish with you. Would you come back to me again?
Cherise’s college campus was shown next. “I asked the dean and your classmates. They said you like to study at this spot in the square every morning.”
“You previously said you wanted me to eat in the cafeteria and study with you.”
