Chapter 654 Call Me Cherise

It was… protruding…

The woman’s face flushed as she remembered the warm breath she felt on her chest while she was putting on

Damien’s apron…

The next moment, she hurriedly left the kitchen and shouted, “Let us know when it’s ready!”

Damien was left speechless.

This woman doesn’t care if I can’t breathe!

From then on, Damien worked alone in the kitchen for quite some time.

Cherise sat on the couch, keeping the two children company while cautiously observing th situation in the kitchen.

She hadn’t forgotten that five years ago, Damien had tried to cook for her.

That time…

He almost burned down the entire kitchen.

Now, five years later, even though she had confirmed that the drumsticks he cooked were delicious and

comparable to those from the New World Restaurant, she couldn’t help but

worry.

After all, this was their home for her and the two children. Given her current financial situation, she couldn’t afford

to renovate the kitchen again.

However, it turned out that Cherise’s worries were unnecessary.

An hour later, a tall man wearing a pink bunny apron came out of the kitchen, carrying a plate of steaming-hot

roasted drumsticks.

“Wow!”

Serafina jumped off the couch, looked up at Damien wearing her mother’s apron, and burst into laughter. “Mr.

Handsome, you look hilarious!”

Damien instinctively glanced at his reflection in the mirror.

The man in the mirror stood tall and straight, but his pink bunny apron was a stark contrast to his physique and

demeanor.

The two long bunny ears on the apron swayed with his movements.

Indeed, this sight was quite comical.

Upon hearing Serafina’s comment, Cherise and Soren both looked up.

When they saw Damien’s serious expression, Cherise burst into laughter while Soren gave Damien a resigned look.

“Do you mind my mom’s quirky taste?”

A warm smile appeared on Damien’s lips as he placed the food on the table. “She’s the woman I chose. No matter

how quirky her taste is, I’ll tolerate it.”

Soren sneered.

Despite his response, Damien could sense from his eyes that the child seemed less guarded. towards him than

before.

Cherise walked over to the dining table while teasing Damien. “Who are you calling your woman? And who are you

calling quirky?”

As she reached Damien, she playfully pinched the bunny ears on the apron. “Isn’t this adorable?”

“It is indeed adorable. It’s just not suitable for a man as un-adorable as me.” Damien replied calmly.

Cherise pouted. “Fine. Since you made such delicious drumsticks, I’ll buy you a more masculine apron when I go

shopping with Lucy in a few days.”

“Thank you, Dr. Shaw.”

Cherise served Serafina some drumsticks and said, “Don’t call me Dr. Shaw at home. Just call me Cherise.”

As she said that, she realized it might have sounded ambiguous.

Taking a deep breath, she avoided Damien’s intense gaze and coughed lightly. “You calling me Dr. Shaw always

makes me feel like I’m still at the hospital; it’s too formal.”

“Alright.”

Damien looked at her intently. “I understand, Cherise.”

“Mm-hmm”

“Then don’t call me Mr. Lenoir either; call me Damien.”

Damien’s deep voice, filled with affection and joy, made Cherise’s heart flutter.
