My Blind Husband novel (Damien and Cherie)

Chapter 835 Off To Cartoon City!

Beckham prepared a new dress for Cherise to match her hair. Hesitant, she slipped into the white

dress, feeling strangely self-conscious. Playing with the puffy sleeves, she asked, "Do you think... I look

strange or awkward in this dress?"

At sixteen or seventeen, Cherise wouldn't have dared to dream of owning a dress like this. Back then, ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

living with her hardworking uncle and aunt in the countryside, she was sensible enough to know that

expensive clothes were a luxury they couldn't afford.

Now, her financial situation had changed, but...well, her age hadn't. Staring at her reflection, she

couldn't shake the feeling of being out of place.

"Mommy, you look so beautiful! Just like me!" Beside her, Serafina, wearing a children's version of the

same dress, beamed.

Mother and daughter, both in white dresses and pigtails, looked exactly alike, with one being a

miniature version of the other.

Damien burst into laughter, unable to contain himself. Cherise, playfully pouting, glanced down at her

outfit. "Do I look like a clown?"

He took off his apron, walking towards her like a lovesick fool. "Nah, just... happy," he admitted,

squeezing her hand. "Seeing you in that dress and hairstyle, it's like time has gone back five years."

He grinned. "Remember when you used to wear pigtails and braid your hair? You had the biggest,

roundest eyes that blinked at me all the time."

Back then, Cherise was all pigtails, braids, and innocent doe-eyed looks. Five years later, she had

grown into a stunning woman, but somewhere along the way, something had changed. Seeing her in

the dress and hairstyle that Beckham had chosen, Damien felt like he had stepped into a time machine.

She looked like the old Cherise, but... not quite.

Soren called out from his chair. "Hey, it's dinnertime! And you lovebirds, can the secret talk wait until

after we eat? Grandpa promised to take Sera and me to Cartoon City!"

Damien raised an eyebrow. "Cartoon City?"

Beckham grinned. "Yep. I promised the little ones after the wedding. Gotta keep those promises, you

know?"

Damien chuckled and turned to Soren and Serafina. "Do you mind if Mommy and I join you on your

Cartoon City adventure?"

Serafina jumped up, clapping her hands in delight. "Of course! Sera says yes!"

Soren pouted and dramatically turned his head away. "Fine, if she says so, I guess I'll allow it...

reluctantly."

After lunch, Beckham began preparing everyone for their Cartoon City adventure. However, Cherise

felt a pang of self-consciousness in her whimsical dress and pigtails.

"Honey, you look beautiful just the way you are," Beckham assured her.

Soren mumbled, "Changing clothes is a hassle. Stop fussing, Ms. Shaw!"

Serafina put on her best puppy-dog eyes, pretending to cry. "Waaah... Mommy, you look perfect like

Sera! Please don't change!" Reаd at
