Chapter 680 The Shaw’s Littles’ First Time In Adania
Glued to the window, Serafina eagerly watched the world fly by. Soren, however, sat aloof with his arms
crossed, still simmering over Damien’s forceful hug from the previous day.
While tasked with managing the two children, Cherise gazed out of the car window with a sigh.
Three years had passed since her last visit to Adania. Although it wasn’t her birthplace and only her
home for two short years, Adania held a profound place in her heart.
Almost every pivotal moment of her twenty-four years had unfolded within its boundaries. Adania had
irrevocably altered her destiny, for better or worse.
However, Cherise never anticipated sharing the return flight with Maeve and her family.
Upon arrival at the airport, the director of Lermille Hospital and a team of medical staff bid farewell to
their departing guests.
“Dr. Shaw!” Isaac, the first to spot Cherise, rushed towards her, his gaze darting between the two
children at her side and the suitcase Mr. Kolson carried behind Damien.
“Dr. Shaw, your children…” he stammered, realization dawning upon him.
The little girl was the spitting image of Cherise, and the boy… an undeniable reflection of Damien!
Isaac had always known Cherise had twins, a boy and a girl, but he had always assumed they were
Cherise and Zachary’s children.
He slapped his forehead, “I should have known!”
Damien’s blatant affection for Cherise and her reciprocation of his feelings were clear as day. He NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
should have deduced their relationship.
Seeing Isaac’s sudden enlightenment, Cherise offered a faint smile and patted his shoulder. “Stop
filling your head with unfounded speculations. You’re finally back to work, so focus. And while you’re at
it, maybe find a way to repay that fifty thousand you owe me.”
Isaac’s face fell instantly. “Dr. Shaw, you’re still concerned about that money?”
Cherise responded earnestly, “Of course I am. That was fifty thousand dollars of my hard-
earned sweat and blood.”
Isaac chuckled, “Mr. Lenoir is incredibly wealthy. Dr. Shaw. Why are you content to remain a humble
doctor at Lermille? Being a single mother is no small feat.

Cherise sighed. “His money is his. I want to live my life on my own terms.”
Turning her attention to Maeve, a thoughtful expression crossed her face.
Damien hadn’t mentioned accompanying Maeve’s family on their return trip, but Cherise understood his
decision. After all, Maeve had been under her primary care, and her presence would ensure immediate
medical attention should any adverse reactions occur to Maeve during the journey home.
Observing Cherise check on Maeve, Isaac took a deep breath and approached Damien. “Mr. Lenoir,
please don’t misunderstand Dr. Shaw’s decision. Her reluctance to perform surgery doesn’t indicate a
lack of mental fortitude or responsibility. She’s genuinely… wounded.”
Damien furrowed his brow. “And how can you be so sure?”
“Because I’ve reviewed her medical records,” Isaac explained. “Her right hand suffered a severe burn.”
Damien’s body involuntarily tensed. “A burn?”
“Yes, a burn,” Isaac confirmed. “I don’t know the specifics of Dr. Shaw’s experiences or why she avoids
discussing them… but please don’t judge her as someone despicable or selfish. She’s an incredibly
good person. A genuine and kind person.”
