Chapter 710 Why The Rush?
Damien furrowed his brow as he examined the two pills in Cherise’s hand. “What are these for?”
They’re anti-diarrheal pills, Cherise sighed. “Did you really think that water was infused with vitamins? Our mischievous son decided to swap Zac’s constipation medication with the vitamins and have some fun at our expense! That rascal, I swear, he’s always up to something.”
Damien chuckled and leaned down, opening his mouth to take the pills. In the process, his lips brushed against Cherise’s fingertips, surprising her. Her checks flushed as she quickly pulled her hand back and offered him a glass of water.
He said with a mischievous glint in his eyes, “So, Zac is experiencing constipation too, huh?”
Cherise pursed her lips and nodded. “Yes”
“Well, that just confirms that I have a healthier gut!” Damien declared with a laugh. He leaned closer to Cherise, a hint of satisfaction in his voice. Therefore, choosing me over him was the right decision.”
Cherise’s face deepened in color. “When did I choose you?” she stammered, quickly averting her gaze and stepping back.
Damien closed the distance between them. From the moment you returned to Adania with me,” he said, his voice low and husky. “In that moment, I knew you had chosen me, my Cherry.”
His gaze locked with hers, filled with an intensity that made her heart skip a beat. “I long for us to return to what we once shared. I’ll call you Wifey, and you call me Hubby. What do you say?”
Cherise’s breath caught in her throat, her heart pounding wildly. The suddenness and intensity of Damien’s proposal left her speechless. She hadn’t expected him to open up like this, and panic washed over her.
“Why the rush?” she stammered, her lips tightly pursed.
Damien chuckled softly and pulled her into his embrace, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. “Am I rushing? Then tell me, what pace would you consider appropriate?”
