Chapter 507 Please Speak Favorably of Damien More
“Who would have thought that your true identity would pave the way for Damien’s future business endeavors?”
The old man chuckled heartily. This is indeed a blessing in disguise for the Lenoir family.”
With a gleam in his eyes, he continued, “The entire family will be there to witness your wedding. Not a single one of us will miss it!”
His voice softened as he leaned towards Cherise, “But, dear Cherry, I hope you’ll speak favorably of Damien to your parents in the future. You see…
“Grandpa, your groveling attitude is off-putting. It’s entirely up to Cherise whether or not she chooses to help Damien. Don’t make our Lenoir family look like we’re begging for scraps!”
Unfazed by her disapproval, Peter retorted coldly, “So, your bowing down to Beckham Tanner wasn’t an act of begging for scraps, was it?”
He sighed wistfully and continued to gaze at Cherise with a smile, “Damien hasn’t been actively involved in business for many years. His only venture is the Shaw Group, which bears your name. In the future, you must encourage your parents to mentor him more.”
Cherise was taken aback, instinctively turning her head to look at Damien. He offered her a subtle smile.
Cherise sat in the passenger seat as they drove back, her gaze drifting out the window as she asked. “Are Maeve and your Grandpa unaware of your overseas businesses?”
The man shrugged casually, “Well, there’s no need for them to know.”
Cherise pursed her lips, “No need?”
At the Lenoir Residence, Peter practically begged Cherise to get her parents to look after Damien.
But the truth was, as Lennon pointed out, Damien’s overseas conglomerates and businesses were second only to the Tanners.
Lennon also mentioned Damien’s rare ability to strategize from thousands of miles away in Adania, expanding his business empire to such heights.
Many in Europe hailed him as a genius.
Yet, in his grandfather’s eyes, this universally acclaimed genius was almost a fool, needing his wife’s constant support through her family’s influence.
Cherise pursed her lips, turning to Damien, “Doesn’t your grandfather’s misunderstanding bother you?”
Damien shook his head lightly. Td rather everyone think I turned my life around with your parents help
Cherise was surprised “Why”
Damien smiled faintly, his obsidian eyes gazing in to the distance. “This way, everyone will understand how much I need you.”
“Then, everyone will know how much of an immense value you mean to me.”
Damien took advantage of the red light to steal a tender glance at Cherise. “I want everyone to see you as my kryptonite, someone I can’t be without,” he said, his deep voice laced with affection.
His words and loving gaze sent Cherise’s heart aflutter. A warm sensation spread through her chest, and she tightened her grip on the seatbelt. “Aww,” she murmured.
It had been a whirlwind of events lately, and Damien had been tirelessly working in their wedding preparations every day. It had been a while since they’d had such an intimate moment together and had been even longer since she’d heard him on something sweet.
While she couldn’t help but feel their relationship had taken on a bit of an old-married-couple vibe, his words always managed to touch her heart.
Taking a deep breath, Cherise turned to face Damien. “Honey, you’re amazing?” the exclaimed
“Okay enough with the mushy muff Damien chuckled, gently caressing her soft, radiant face. “Close your eyes and get some rest. The wedding is in a day, and I want you to be the most beautiful bride.”
“We will see through your mom remaining days with your dad.”
