Chapter 909 Happy Family of Four
“Turns out that Mom and Dad are late because they are researching about giving us a little brother or sister,” Soren remarked, observing his parents.
From a distance, a little girl’s voice sounded unhappy. “Hmph, I knew it. Mom and Dad haven’t been spending time with me recently. There must be a problem!”
Cherise and Damien turned to see Serafina on the balcony of the Lenoir residence, pouting and leaning on the railing.
Soren stood behind her, casually playing with a building block.
Cherise frowned, worried about her daughter’s safety. “Sera, get back! It’s not safe there!”
“It’s fine,” Serafine retorted. “Ren measured it and told me my chubby body can’t fit through.”
After a few seconds had passed, Serafina finally realized the insinuation of her brother’s words and yelled indignantly, “Ren called me fat!”
Hearing her daughter’s complaint, Cherise burst into laughter. “Sera, you took so long to react!”
Widening her big, bead-like eyes, Serafina asked, “What do you mean, Mom?”
“She means you’re silly,” Soren chimed in.
Feeling hurt, Serafina whimpered, “Ren calls me fat, then Mom says I’m dumb… I’m so sad…”
Damien’s heart melted at his daughter’s tears. He quickly went inside to pick her up and coddle her. Attempting to reassure her, he said, “You still have Daddy, right Sera?”
Serafina sobbed even harder, “But Daddy isn’t the most important person to me!”
A chuckle left Cherise’s lips before she intervened, “Daddy is important to you too, Sera.”
Damien pinched his daughter’s cheek playfully. “Do you listen to Ren that much?” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Serafina nodded, “Because he’s important to me.”
“But he called you fat,” Damien responded.
“Mom called you dumb.”
“Only Daddy thinks you’re thin and smart,” Damien said, staring into his daughter’s eyes.
After contemplating, Serafina kissed Damien’s cheek. “Then I’ll admit that Daddy is the most important person to me.”
Damien chuckled, “Women of all ages can’t resist sweet words.” A smirk formed on the corners of his mouth as he winked playfully at Cherise.
Shaking his head, Soren remarked, “Even if you manage to win over Sera, you can’t coax me that easily.”
Speaking his thoughts out loud, Soren walked away, leaving Damien smiling at his son’s determination. His stubbornness was very reminiscent of a certain woman.
