Lyra's courageous affection touched Cherise, but she could not ignore the gravity of the situation. As Zachary's friend, she was reluctant to see Lyra sacrifice her future for him.
"But she is determined to be with Zachary." Damien looked ahead. His voice was steady and unwavering. "Do you know why I agreed to help her?"
Cherise shook her head.
"It's because she reminded me of you."
Cherise clutched her phone and paused momentarily.
She reminded him of me?
"She seems like you from five years ago."
Damien smiled as he recalled how they got married five years prior.
Back then, a certain naive girl had looked at him with the same earnest, persistent, and stubborn gaze. "I'm willing to marry you, care for you for a lifetime, and bear your children. I'll never regret it for a moment!"
Seeing Cherise's puzzled expression, Damien sighed. "Five years ago, did you ever consider you might regret marrying a disabled man?"
Cherise immediately shook her head. She had never thought about it.
At that time, everyone told her that he was blind and confined to a wheelchair due to disability in both legs. However, she had fallen in love with him at first sight and did not care about such things.
Thinking about this, Cherise quietly pursed her lips. "I understand now."
