Being at the beach and feeling the gentle sea breeze against her skin gradually calmed her heart.
Cherise furrowed her brow as she gazed at the seaside. Suddenly, a lost memory surfaced, prompting her to smack her forehead.
Five years ago, she fought with Damien after learning that her uncle was the culprit who set fire to Maeve. Damien then drove along the coastal road and brought her to this place. He had purchased a seaside villa in her name, claiming to use it to bind her to him.
The memory prompted her to turn instinctively and look towards the villa.
As expected, the seaside villa stood there quietly, untouched by the passage of five years.
The ocean remained unchanged, the villa was untouched, and the people in her life... were still the same.
Damien opened the door with a smile and strode toward the backseat. He carried Cherise out of the car and cradled her in his arms, heading determinedly toward the villa.
Cherise furrowed her brows and protested instinctively. "I can walk by myself. Put me down..."
But Damien ignored her and continued carrying her as he walked.
Eventually, he laid her down gently on a large bed in the villa's bedroom.
The bedroom was situated on the second floor. It had enormous floor-to-ceiling windows that offered a panoramic view of the boundless sea. Sunlight streamed through the windows, bathing the room in a golden glow.
Damien pinned her beneath him, gazing at her with eyes brimming with affection. "Cherry."
