Chapter 630 I Won’t Let Her Get Hurt Again
The little boy pursed his lips. “My mom is dressed in a pink bunny costume in that photograph, and you’re standing beside her. She looks so radiant when she smiles, but I’ve never seen her smile like that.”
Damien was taken aback and fell silent.
He did recall the photograph Soren was referring to. It was taken after Cherise had performed a dance for Mr. Tanner the first time he brought her to the Tanner family.
Even though five years had passed… he still remembered that moment vividly. It was his most joyful and carefree memories with Cherise. But… they never experienced such blissful moments again.
The intricate relationships and complex ties between the Tanner, Miles, and Lenoir families made it impossible to sustain the relationship they had fought for…
His eyes were filled with anguish.
“Mr. Lenoir.” Soren looked up, “I understand you might still have feelings for my mommy, and you may want Serafina and me to call you ‘dad.””
“But Mr. Lenoir, even though I’m young and unaware of what transpired back then, I’ve overheard Uncle Zach and Mommy discussing…”
“Uncle Zach mentioned that you abandoned my mommy of your own accord back then, right?”
Damien looked up somewhat incredulously at Soren. Perhaps he never expected a five-year- old child to discuss the past with him so logically and rationally.
But upon reflection, he felt relieved. After all, Soren was his son.
Back then, the nine-year-old Damien could discern his Uncle Raymond’s schemes from his parents’ car accident, so it wasn’t surprising that the five-year-old Soren could articulate such thoughts.
