Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 957

Chapter 957 Sense of Familiarity 

Mrs. Lydia’s statement caused Cherise to furrow her brow deeply. “Mrs. Lydia, are you implying that Alexis is the child Sebastian wants to adopt?” 

“Yes.” 

Yolanda raised an eyebrow, giving Cherise a cold look. “Mrs. Lenoir, do you have an issue with this?” 

“My brother has been feeling lonely lately and could use a child to brighten his spirits. Do you object?” 

Cherise narrowed her eyes, but she decided to turn away, ignoring Yolanda. 

The show began. 

From the moment Alexis stepped onto the stage, Cherise kept a close eye on him, studying him. 

This child was truly unique. 

He exuded a sense of calmness, aloofness, and maturity that were far beyond his years. 

The familiarity she felt… it reminded her of her own eldest son. 

Cherise even had a strong belief that there was a connection between her and this child before she lost her memory. 

Otherwise, the gut feeling that poked on her stomach wouldn’t feel as intense. 

But… her memory was gone, leaving her with nothing to recall. 

Despite the memory loss, she was certain that Sebastian and Yolanda were not trustworthy individuals. 

If this child were to be adopted by Sebastian… 

Taking a deep breath, she adjusted the microphone on her collar. “May I adopt this child?” 

On the other end of the line, Damien’s eyebrows knitted with puzzlement. “Why?” 

“I don’t want this child to be taken in by Sebastian.” 

“I feel like I know him.” 

“Even though I can’t remember anything right now.” 

Sitting in the car, Damien sighed softly. After a second, he spoke gently, “Cherry, I don’t mind if you want to adopt a child.” 

“But…” 

The man took a deep breath and added, “You have to consider that we already have two children in our family.”

“If you bring in another child, have you thought about the potential issue that might arise among the siblings?” 

“There won’t be any,” Cherise reassured confidently. 

She continued to assert her beliefs, “The kids won’t mistreat their younger brother.” 

Damien’s soft chuckle echoed through the phone. “Quite confident, aren’t you?” 

“Yes,” she said, her eyes glinting with determination as she fixed her gaze on Alexis. 

“Then let’s proceed with the adoption.” 

The man rubbed his chin. “However, given that Yolanda has expressed interest in adopting this child, it might be challenging for you to take him away.” 

“I’m not afraid.” 

Cherise took a deep breath and continued, “As long as you’re okay with it, I will definitely bring this child home.” 

Damien fell silent for a moment. 

“Are you certain… you know this child?” 

“Yes.” 

Cherise pursed her lips. “I’m absolutely sure.” 

The performance concluded swiftly. 

Mrs. Lydia rose to her feet, smiling at the affluent ladies seated behind her. “All of you have generously supported our orphanage in the past, and today’s performance was a testament to the resilience of our children.” 

“However, the number of children in our care is growing, so we rely on your continued generosity.”
