Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 905 A Good Deed at the Orphanage

The man persisted in teasing her, “If you count to ten I'll know what to do.”
Cherise rolled her eyes, saying, “Do you think I'm a child?”

Despite her words, she still glanced at his face and began counting.

“One, two, three, four... nine, ten!”

As she reached ten, a small truck pulled up outside the Lenoir Group Building.
Two men and a woman emerged from the truck.

The men appeared to be laborers, while the woman had a gentle demeanor
reminiscent of someone involved in charity work.

With a smile, the woman ushered the men inside, “Mr. Lenoir, I appreciate your
willingness to donate food to the children at the orphanage in Adonia...”

Damien rose from his seat and addressed the lady, “Its not me who wishes to
donate. It's my wife.”

“My wife is compassionate and understands the challenges faced by the children
at the orphanage, so she specifically requested me to reach out to you to donate
drumsticks to the children.”

Upon hearing this, the woman turned to Cherise with a smile, “Mrs. Lenoir is truly
generous and kind- hearted!”

“Mrs. Lenoir’s kindness is remarkable, which explains why she has such a
wonderful husband like Mr.

Lenoir...”

The director of the orphanage showered Cherise with praise.

Feeling slightly embarrassed by the compliments, Cherise could only offer a
sheepish smile to the woman in charge. “In that case, let's load these drumsticks
onto the truck together,” she said as she gestured to the drumsticks before them.
The woman raised her hand, halting Cherise, “There’s no need for you to do that.
Our two workers from the orphanage can handle it perfectly!”

With a wave of her hand, the two men promptly began loading the truck.

The truck was soon filled to the brim with drumsticks.

Following the suggestion of the female director, Damien and Cherise trailed their
car to the orphanage.

Inside the orphanage home's cafeteria, a group of children sat quietly at the
tables, awaiting their meal.

In contrast to children like Serafina, who were born into privilege, the children at
the orphanage appeared particularly thin.

However, their bright black eyes shone like grapes-they still had their spirits.

Chapter 905 A Good Deed at the Orphanage

On the role of volunteers,

Due to understaffing at the orphanage, Cherise and Damien even donning the
volunteer attire and distributing drumsticks to the children.

The orphanage housed numerous children.

The drumsticks from the small truck would likely only suffice for two or three
meals.

After distributing the drumsticks to the children that evening, Cherise and Damien
leaned against the small window outside the cafeteria, observing the children
enjoying their meal.

“Do you see that girl? She resembles you.”

Damien smiled, pointing to a little girl with two ponytails. Her round face was
decorated with two round eyes and pink puffy lips, earnestly devouring a
drumstick. “Were you like her when you were young?”

Cherise shook her head and replied, “I'm not sure.”

Damien furrowed his brow slightly. “You're not sure?”

“No,” she said matter-of-factly.
