Chapter 730 The Subject of The Children’s Wager
Cherise smiled faintly and crouched down to tousle Serafina’s hair. “Where’s the homework I must sign my name on?” she asked.
“Actually, Mommy, there’s no such thing!” Serafina pouted, standing on tiptoe to whisper into Cherise’s ear. “Ren said you stayed in Mr. Handsome’s room last night, but I didn’t believe it, so we bet on it!”
Cherise was stunned. Did the kids make me the subject of their wager first thing in the morning?
“We made a bet over an ice cream. I’ve lost, so I must give Ren today’s ice cream.” As Serafina spoke, her voice sank slightly. Moments later, Serafina laughed. “You’re Mr. Handsome’s girlfriend now, Mommy, Can I ask Mr. Handsome for lots of ice cream in the future?”
Cherise pursed her lips and coughed lightly. “Um… Have you eaten breakfast yet?”
Serafina nodded. “Grandma Frances made us lots of delicious food!”
At the side, Soren frowned. “I told you, it’s just Frances. It makes her seem younger. She’ll be happy!”
“But Grandma Frances asked me to call her that…” Serafina looked aggrieved.
Cherise looked at her two children helplessly and interrupted them so they wouldn’t continue to argue. “Why don’t I take you to kindergarten?”
“No.” Serafina shook her head. “I want you and Mr. Handsome to take me to kindergarten together! Then, our teachers will give me candy again when they ask for Mr. Handsome’s contact information!”
Cherise was floored. What happened to my innocent daughter?
Is she using Damien to bribe the teachers for candy? How did she learn to do this?
“Alright.” Before Cherise could object, the door behind her opened. Damien walked out, fastening the top button of his shirt. “Will you share the candy with me, Serafina?”
“Of course!” Upon seeing Damien, the little girl smiled sweetly. Her smile seemed to light up the entire
room.
If Soren was a replica of Damien, Serafina was a replica of Cherise. The mother and daughter had the same oval face, round eyes, and radiant smile.
Damien was in his thirties, but his heart melted at his daughter’s smile. “So it’s settled then.” He crouched down and held Serafina in his arms. “From now on, I’ll take you to school daily, okay?”
“Okay!” The little girl clapped her hands in joy. “This way, I’ll have lots of candy!”
“You’ll also become chubby.” Soren pouted as he followed Damien.
“You’re talking nonsense, Ren! I won’t become chubby!”
“You will!”
Soren sighed. “Mr. Lenoir can take us to school daily, but Mommy must also come.”
Cherise was taken aback and instinctively asked, “Why?” She was just thinking that if Damien took the kids. to school in the future, she could laze around at home…
She had handled almost all the children’s daily school runs by herself for the past few years except during particular circumstances. It was honestly quite tiring. My son won’t let me slack off now that I have a chance to?
“You must assert your dominance.” Soren pouted and whispered. “The teachers are eyeing Mr. Lenoir greedily. Hence, you must accompany him whenever he goes to kindergarten, Mommy.”
