Chapter 568 Cheriseâs Solace
Why would he portray himself as someone who searched for me relentlessly over five years if heâs unsure of his feelings for me?
What a jerk!
She silently berated him as she started the car before speeding off towards the kindergarten.
âMommy!â
When the car stopped in front of the kindergarten, Serafina sprinted towards Cherise with her arms wide. open. âMommy, I missed you so much!â
âMommy, your eyes are so pretty. Theyâre like stars in the sky!â
Behind her, Soren curled his lips in disdain. His backpack was slung over his shoulder, and he seemed. wise beyond his years. âShe just picked up that line from a cartoon earlier today, and sheâs already. repeating it. Youâre like a parrot!â
Serafina looked aggrieved as she nestled in Cheriseâs arms. âMommy, Mommy! Ren is being mean!â
Cherise smiled in exasperation and turned to look at Soren. âDonât bully your sister.â
âI didnât!â
Soren opened the car door somewhat grumpily. Despite his squabble with Serafina, he still behaved in a dignified manner as he pouted at his sister. âGet in the car.â
Serafina snorted, She let go of Cherise and clambered into the back seat awkwardly.
She didnât have to struggle so much in the past!
She was pretty spoiled. Cherise would always carry her into the car whenever she threw a tantrum. She never had to scramble in herself.
But Soren insisted they should be more considerate of Cherise as her children. He said she must have been exhausted after a dayâs work, so they shouldnât burden her by asking her to carry them. Otherwise, he would tattle to the kindergarten teachers about the comic books stashed in Serafinaâs desk.
Therefore, Serafina had to clumsily obey Sorenâs instructions daily.
Cherise watched the two children clamber into the car with a warm smile on her face.
Her annoyance at Damien instantly vanished at the sight of her two adorable children.
They were her solace.
When Charisa pa*sed away⊠Cherise was devastated for a long time. She even felt that her life had lost its meaning. She barely ate and eventually ended up in the hospital due to malnutrition.
It was revealed that she was pregnant with twins at the hospital.
Cherise had no choice but to gather her strength, work diligently, and continue to strive to live for the sake of the two tiny lives growing inside her.
O

And just like that, five years had flown by.
âMommy.â
Seated in the backseat, Soren frowned as he picked up a cufflink that had fallen onto the seat. âWhat is this?â
Cherise was slightly taken aback. This cufflinkâŠ
âUm, thatâs a button that fell off my clothes a few days ago.
âReally?â
He frowned skeptically, scrutinizing the cufflink.
It was clearly a manâs large cufflink.
Soren scoffed. He recalled the WhatsApp message from this morning. âLetâs see who will win.ââ
Heh. Soren scoffed and pocketed the cufflink.
Did that man deliberately leave the cufflink to taunt me?
Cherise returned to the modest apartment where she resided with her two children.
The woman parked her car and opened the car door. âRen, Sera, you can get out of the car!â
The little girl in a pristine, white princess dress slowly exited the car.
Behind her, Soren carefully stepped out of the car with his backpack.
âWhat should we have for dinner tonight?â
Cherise asked casually as she locked the car.
âWe still have tomatoes at home. Letâs make tomato sandwiches.â
Soren was mature beyond his years. He carried his sisterâs backpack in one hand and held his sisterâs hand in the other. âSerafina had many tomato sandwiches at kindergarten today. I guess sheâs craving it.â
