    Chapter 637 You Do Care About Me


    Damien offered a faint smile. “Your mother isn’t fierce. She’s just concerned about your well- being.” He


    tousled Serafina’s hair and gently ced her on the chair. “If you want me to carry you next time, make


    sure your mother doesn’t see it, okay?”


    “Alright!”


    Cherise was astonished.


    Does he have the audacity to openly say such things in front of me?


    Does he think I’m a pushover when ites to my children?!


    “Dinner time!”


    Soren had already started eating. “I’m starving.”


    “When I made pierogis with Mommy, we were never this slow.” He even gave Damien a somewhat


    disapproving look. “Mr. Lenoir, you need to step up your game!”


    Damien smiled lightly. “I will.”


    “Let’s eat, Mr. Handsome!” Serafina also started eating. “My mommy’s pierogis are amazing!”


    Damien smiled tenderly and nced at Cherise. “They truly are amazing.”


    Cherise was speechless. This man had be somewhat endearing in the presence of the children.


    After dinner, Soren suggested that Damien should wash the dishes. Before Cherise could object, the


    man offered a casual smile. “Sure.”


    Cherise was stunned. Her children weren’t polite to Damien, a supposed ‘stranger.”


    Damien had already carried the dishes to the kitchen in the blink of an eye. Cherise. reluctantly


    followed him. “I’ll do it.”


    Regardless of her rtionship with Damien, he was still her guest. It wasn’t very nice to have him wash


    the dishes.


    “I promise not to damage your dishes.” The man grinned nonchntly. He turned on the faucet and


    squirted dishwashing liquid onto a te.

    As if to prove his words, he lifted the soapy te and was about to demonstrate scrubbing it when the


    te slipped from his grasp and shattered with a crash.

    Cherise and Damien were astonished. The man’s expression turned slightly awkward.


    He coughed lightly and crouched down to pick up the shards. “This was an ident…”


    Cherise frowned. “Don’t touch it!”


    But the man had already touched the broken porcin shards on the floor.


    “Have you lost your mind?” She frowned as she rushed over and hurriedly grabbed his hand. She


    turned it over as she examined it. “The shards can easily cut your skin…”.


    “I’m fine.”


    Cherise pursed her lips as she examined his hand meticulously. Fortunately, she had intervened in


    time, and his fingers were unharmed.


    “If you’re not capable of washing dishes, don’t do it.” She heaved a sigh of relief and looked up at


    Damien with a slightly stern expression. “What if you injure yourself?” Her reproachful tone was mixed


    with concern. “Besides, you shouldn’t touch these shards with your bare hands. Isn’t there a broom


    nearby?”


    Damien remained silent. She looked up and subconsciously nced at him. The man’s eyes were filled


    with tender affection. “So you do care about me.”


    Cherise was startled, and her face turned red under his gaze. She gritted her teeth. “Why wouldn’t I


    care about you?!” She suddenly felt her words were too suggestive, so she continued, “You’re in my


    house. I’m responsible for you if anything happens!”


    Damien smiled, his gaze yful as he observed her, “Is that all?”


    “Of… of course. What… what else do you want?”


    “You know what I want.”


    Cherise pursed her lips. She rolled her eyes at him and started washing the dishes in the sink.


    Damien smiled nonchntly as he stood by her side and handed her the dishes one by one.
