Chapter 747 What True Love Is

Her heart melted into a puddle from his tenderness. She bit her lip. “Damien…”

“I didn’t mean to hide it from you. It’s just, you know, we were still enemies. I would get in trouble if anyone

discovered I had rushed to the scene to save you…”

Then, she looked into his eyes and continued, “It was never my intention to deceive you.”

“I don’t hold it against you for keeping it from me.” Damien kissed her lips, holding her tight. “It’s my fault. I should

have figured out it was you…”

He looked down, observing her earnestly. “Cherry, you have the right to punish me. Otherwise, I might… not be able

to forgive my foolishness.”

Cherise’s face flushed. She bit her lip and looked into his sincere gaze. After a moment, she smiled. “All right. I’ll

think about how to punish you…”

Damien held Cherise and patiently waited for her to issue his punishment. He had expected a severe punishment,

judging from her prolonged silence.

However, to his surprise, Cherise suddenly smiled. “Your punishment is to send Ren and Sera to school from now

on!”

Damien was momentarily stunned. He gently kissed her lips. “Okay.”

For most parents, sending their children to school early in the morning might seem like a chore. But for Damien, it

was a delight. After all, he had unwittingly missed five years of his children’s growth.

He regretted not being more resolute back then. If only he had found her earlier…

Unfortunately, no one can turn back time.”

Therefore, when Cherise tasked him with sending the children to school, he smiled warmly. “Leave it to

me.”

Cherise nestled in Damien’s arms, basking in his warmth. Her lips unconsciously curved into a sweet

smile.

In truth, she felt what happened back then was her fault. Things would have been much different if she had not

concealed the truth from Damien.

Yet, Damien never held it against her. Instead, he claimed he was at fault. He blamed himself for failing to think

things through and not searching for her hard enough. In other words, he blamed himself for everything.

But what did he do wrong?

Cherise felt she was the one truly at fault.

Damien was likely the only man in the world who would shoulder all the blame himself out of love for her. He would

never think it was her fault but regretted not discovering it sooner.

Moreover, he would never say her concealment of the matter led to their predicament. Instead, he only admitted

his shortcomings and took responsibility for everything.

Perhaps when a man loves you, he will overlook all the wrongs you’ve done. Maybe this is what true love is.

She lay in Damien’s arms and closed her eyes. “What should we do about Rowena?”

“Til handle it. As for you…” Damien sighed softly. “I remember you participated in many medical seminars. You can

try contacting the skilled doctors you know and see if they can improve Zachary’s condition. He ended up like this

to save you. Moreover, he’s the head of the Miles family. If he remains unconscious for too long… it might pose a

problem.”

Cherise nodded and grunted softly in agreement..

She bore the most significant responsibility for Zachary’s condition. Thus, she would undoubtedly replace a way to help

him regain consciousness sooner.

Cherise and Damien returned to Adania in the evening.

After dropping Cherise off at Lenoir Manor, Damien immediately went to Adania Hospital.
