Chapter 903 You Are Worthy
After narrowing her eyes at him, Cherise rubbed her eyebrows together, understanding the events that brought upon this phenomenon.
Despite the crisis facing the Lenoir Group, there were still many people trying to please Damien and establish a connection with him.
He publicly declared on Twitter that she enjoys eating drumsticks, essentially indicating that pleasing her is equivalent to pleasing him!?
Intending to display her annoyance in full, she shot him another glare as she angrily reached for her phone.
However, what she saw on his latest post at noon caught her attention.
He was defending her.
In response to the false media reports, he took to the internet to speak up for her for the first time.
He even mentioned her fondness for drumsticks.
Beneath his Twitter post, along with apologies from the media, there were various comments from netizens.
‘Mr. and Mrs. Lenoir are truly in love!’
‘Damien is a wonderful husband! Standing up for his wife and remembering her preferences!’
‘I wish I had a Damien Lenoir in my life!’
Cherise was left speechless.
Reading these online comments, Cherise found herself unable to voice any of the complaints she had prepared for Damien.
This man has done so much for her… perhaps too much.
And what she could do for him seemed so small in comparison.
She had come to the company today to assist him but… ended up causing trouble for him instead.
Even though deep down Cherise knew he did not see her as a burden, she still felt guilty over his numerous selfless actions for her sake.
Taking a deep breath, she gazed at Damien earnestly and asked, “Do I deserve all this from you?”
Damien furrowed his brows slightly, his obsidian eyes fixed on her. With a hint of a smile playing on his lips, he said softly, “Cherry.”
She met his gaze seriously, awaiting his response.

Yet, he merely smiled faintly, picked up a tissue from the coffee table, and wiped away the oil stains from the corner of her mouth. He teased, “So, am I worth it?”
“Even though you left me years ago, do I still deserve the kids you bore me?”
“Am I worth the cost of the injury you sustained when you tried to save me, so much so that you couldn’t perform surgery for a long time?”
His words caused Cherise to furrow her brow deeply. Not hesitating for a second, she replied, “Yes, you’re worth it!”.
Even if…
Even if she had harbored some resentment towards him in the past, even though there were times she felt helpless.
It couldn’t be denied that if she were given the chance to choose again, she would still choose to have children with him-she would still choose to save his life.
He was worth it.
“Since you believe I am worthy, I also believe you’re worthy of my protection and affection,” he stated.
Setting down the tissue, he tenderly k*ssed Cherise on the forehead. “Don’t doubt your own allure.”
His obsidian eyes locked onto hers as if he were staring down into her very soul. “I remember everything you’ve done for me,” he continued softly.
“Now that I have you back, I want to cherish you, do everything for you, and provide you with the best of everything. That’s what a husband should do for his wife.”
Cherise’s rising heartbeat pounded beneath her chest.
His sincere confession struck her like lightning, causing butterflies to dance around in her stomach, her b*dy flushing red within seconds.
Taking a deep breath, she raised her arm and placed it on Damien’s shoulder, her pink lips pursed as she leaned in to give him a k*ss on his sharply defined, thin lips.
“Honey…”
‘Smack!’
Just as Cherise’s lips met Damien’s, the sound of papers falling to the ground could be heard in the distance.
Cherise and Damien raised their heads in unison, looking at the source of the sound.
They saw a formally dressed Candace squatting by the elevator, unnerved by catching their attention. Discombobulated, she hurriedly tried to gather the scattered papers around her.
