Chapter 636 Keeping Your Promise

At the tender age of five, Soren was already more mature than his peers. However, despite his advanced maturity,

he was still just a child.

His understanding of emotions and manipulation was limited, and he couldn’t quite differentiate between the two.

“In any case, you… you can’t just touch my mommy!” It was unusual for the boy to stutter. “You two aren’t even

married yet!”

Damien chuckled in response. “So, can I touch her freely if we’re married?”

Soren was dumbfounded and bit his lip. “No, you still can’t!”

“Alright.” The man smiled lightly and stopped teasing the child. “I understand that cherish

your mommy very much. Actually, I feel the same way.”

“I just…” Damien sighed. “All I wanted was to hold her.”

After being separated from his beloved for so long, even a simple hug felt like a luxury to Damien. He was well

aware that this was a consequence of his past mistakes.

Raising one hand and placing the other over his heart, Damien made an oath. “I swear that I’ll never force her if

she doesn’t give her consent in the future. Is that better?”

Soren pursed his lips and slightly lowered his guard against Damien. “You’d better keep your promise!”

“Mm.” Damien smiled and ruffled Soren’s hair. “I’m a man of my word.”

“But you promised Sera to give her strawberries every day.” Soren reminded him coldly.

Damien was taken aback. He had indeed made that promise to Serafina and wouldn’t have broken it if not for

Cherise’s warning.

Leaning close to Soren’s ear, Damien whispered, “How about this…”

Upon hearing what the man said, Soren pursed his lips and nodded. “Keep your promise!”

With that, the little boy turned around, ready to share the good news with his sister.

But as he walked away, he seemed to recall something and turned to look at Damien. “You’re from Adania, right?”

Damien nodded.

It makes sense. Soren pursed his lips, recalling the puzzle his teacher had rewarded him with He had seen a car

with an Adania license plate parked outside the kindergarten that day.

Later, his teacher mentioned that the puzzle was donated. So the donor was…

Taking a deep breath, the little boy looked up at Damien carnestly. “I really like the puzzle. Could you get a more

challenging one next time?”

Damien responded with a faint smile. “I’ll send you the link to the website next time. You can choose for yourself.”

“Okay.” The little boy nodded and looked at Damien solemnly. “Then, you’re allowed to come over and eat

tomorrow!”

Amidst the humid, steam-filled kitchen, Cherise’s heart felt warm.

Unbeknownst to Cherise, who was busy cooking in the kitchen, her son had been swayed by Damien’s puzzle. He

had even assured Damien of the chance to join them for dinner the following night.

When the pierogis were finally ready, she placed them on the dining table and announced, “Dinner’s ready!” Soren

promptly turned off the television and rushed to the table.

However, Serafina pouted haughtily and glanced at Damien next to her. “Mr. Handsome, I don’t want to walk over.

Understanding her request, Damien reached out to carry the little. girl as he stood and walked towards the dining

table.

“Whee!” Serafina lay in Damien’s arms, “You’re so tall, Mr. Handsome! I can even see the top. of Mommy’s head!”

Cherise was stunned. She looked at her daughter in exasperation. “Serafina, stop acting spoiled. Come down.”

The little girl instinctively snuggled into Damien’s chest. “Mr. Handsome, look at how fierce. Mommy is!”
