    During the trip, he was not only apanying his wife back to her hometown but also taking steps to

    “How could I not?” The man raised his eyes, observing the petite woman by the small river with ke,


    who was wholly engrossed in fishing. “I want to ensure that her favorite foods. await her every time she


    returns.”


    He gently shut his eyes.


    The neighborhood restaurant boasted a wishing wall adorned with sticky notes bearing the heartfelt


    wishes of the restaurant’s patrons.


    As Cherise enjoyed her meal, Damien took a moment to scan the wishing wall thoughtfully.


    Eventually, he found a pink, heart-shaped sticky note in the corner. In elegant


    handwriting, it read, “I hope that each time I return, I can savor the amazing food in this restaurant!


    Cherise.”


    –


    With a sigh, Damien opened his eyes. He focused through the ck silk covering them, gazing steadily


    at Cherise, who was bathed in the soft, orange light of the setting sun.


    Her wish was so simple; how could he possibly let her down?


    “Darling!”


    Cherise bounded over, carrying a stic bucket filled with fish. “I caught a massive fish!” She eagerly


    disyed the bucket. “Look, it’s huge!”


    Swimming in the water bucket was a fish measuring about twenty centimeters.


    Cherise beamed, ready to share something with him, but her gaze suddenly locked onto the ck silk


    obscuring Damien’s eyes. Her cheerful demeanor gradually waned.


    After a brief moment, her downcast lips quivered, “I’m sorry, darling, I forgot that. can’t see…”


    you


    Cherise sniffled, her frustration evident as she clenched her hands. Regardless, she vowed to herself

    “Are you sure you don’t mind, darling? Fish are slippery and smelly, you… you don’t mind?”


    The man shook his head gently.


    Cherise’s sense of disappointment eventually faded.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    She reached out, took Damien’s hand, and plunged it into the water bucket. Yet, the fish proved to be


    quite elusive. Every time she made contact with it using Damien’s hand, the fish darted away.


    In the end, the entire water bucket toppled over amidst an exciting moment.


    Their location wasn’t far from the small river. When the fish leaped from the water bucket, it jumped


    right into the river, vanishing from sight.


    Cherise bit her lip, “It got away…”


    “It’s alright, we’ll catch another one


    The young woman took a deep breath, gearing to


    dash into the river. But Damien reached out, grabbing her hand, “Let’s catch more. tomorrow; I’m a bit


    tired.”


    Cherise finally realized that the sun had already set, and the surroundings had be hazy.


    It was time to return home.


    So, she signaled to ke, still in the river, “Time to head back!”

    Cherise instructed him to carry the caught fish, and then she assisted Damien step by step. as they


    made their way back.


    “Jacob recently went abroad,” Damien remarked. Ultimately, he couldn’t resist mentioning it to her.


    Only Cherise had the power to make him feel the urge to cast aside his facade. If he weren’t ‘blind,’ he


    could have done so many things with her. But his identity was that of a blind man. So he could only sit


    on the sidelines, watching her y, watching her have fun. by herself.


    “What did he go abroad for?” Cherise had been preupied with nning how to secretly take Damien


    to get his eyes checked tomorrow. His words failed to register with her.
