    Chapter 516 Whispers of Devotion.


    Damien closed his eyes, and a teardrop trickled down from the corner of his eye.


    His voice was low and quivered, “I don’t know.”


    Cherise regained consciousness and immediately noticed her right hand wrapped in bandages.


    “Mom!”


    As Cherise awoke, the first image that shed in Cherise’s mind was Charisa.


    The haunting recollection was etched in her memory as she recalled Charisa being carried away on a


    stretcher, soaked in blood, just before she lost consciousness.


    Mom’s health was already fragile.


    Could she still endure?


    “Aunt Charisa is fine.”


    Zachary rose from his seat, grabbed a pillow, and skillfully positioned it behind Cherise, allowing her to


    rx against the headboard easily. Reflecting on the unsettling incident, he remarked, “I don’t know if


    Maeve hesitated at thest moment or if it was a mere slip of the hand.”


    “She didn’t hit any of Aunt Charisa’s vital organs; Aunt Charisa barely managed to pull through.”


    “Thirsty? Would you like a ss of water?”


    “Mm.”


    Cherise breathed a sigh of relief, but when she reached for Zachary’s ss of water, she noticed his


    heavily bandaged right hand and gasped.


    Zachary noticed this, too.


    Sensing her concern, he approached with water and gently asked, “Feeling better?”


    “Mm.”


    The girl nodded.


    Zachary set aside the water ss and exined, “Although Aunt Charisa’s condition isn’t critical, her


    health demands ongoing hospital monitoring. It will take another day to confirm no significant


    complications.”


    Cherise nodded.


    “Can I see her then?”

    “Let’s wait until tomorrow.”


    Zachary smiled reassuringly, “Don’t worry, Bunny.”


    “Trust me -Aunt Charisa is doing fine.”


    “I grew up under her care. I care for her as much as you care for her.”


    “If anything happened to her, I wouldn’t be sitting here idly chatting with you.”


    Cherise pursed her lips, hesitated, and finally believed Zachary’s words.


    “Where’s my father?”


    “Where else could he be? He’s with Aunt Charisa.”


    He chuckled lightly and poured a ss of water. He sighed while drinking, “Mr. Lenoir is devoted.”


    “As Aunt Charisay unconscious, he sped her hand, expressing his longing to be by her side in the


    next chapter of life.”


    Zachary’s words trailed off.


    Because Beckham also professed, “Ari, if you die, I will die with you.”


    Zachary did not share this with Cherise.


    Cherise had just recently epted Aunt Charisa’s illness.


    If she knew that Beckham was also contemting.


    Losing her newly acknowledged parents all at once would be too harsh for her.


    Finally, Cherise pursed her lips and sighed, setting aside her worries.


    After a while, she recalled something and lifted her head slightly.


    She opened her mouth, intending to say something, but ultimately, no words left from her mouth.


    “Do you want to ask about Damien?”


    “Or do you want to ask about Maeve?”


    Zachary shook his head lightly.


    Her thoughts were unmistakably evident on her face; how could he remain oblivious?


    Cherise pursed her lips and lowered her head as she muttered sheepishly, “I want to know about both.”


    “Maeve is fine; she got a blow from me.”


    “She’s already been discharged from the hospital and is back home.”


    “Damien…”


    Zachary paused.


    “He returned to the Lenoir family with Maeve.”


    Cherise was taken aback and suddenly looked up.


    “He… went back to the Lenoir family?”


    No way…

    He should faithfully stay by Mom’s side, even if he weren’t worried.
