Chapter 577 Are You That Surprised?
“I mentioned that my father had passed away, and the teachers comforted me and Serafina. They even gave us an extra apple.”
Cherise’s smile was slightly forced as she tossed Serafina’s clothes into the washing machine. “Isn’t that
nice?”
“Even though you don’t have a dad, many people still care for you and Serafina…
“But Mommy.” Soren interrupted.
He wasn’t very tall but had an exceptionally mature expression as he stood at the doorway. “I want to know. if my father has really passed away.”
“Or did you just say he passed away because you separated from him?”
Cherise’s hand froze as she was about to press the washing machine button.
She frowned and turned to Soren. “You’re acting strangely today. Did someone say something to you? Why this sudden interest?”
Soren pursed his lips. “Mommy, do you still believe that Serafina and I are too young to know the truth?”
Cherise was taken aback and looked away. “Soren, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you. It’s just that the situation between your dad and me… is complicated. Even if I explained, you might not understand. So, it’s easier for you and Serafina to assume that he’s no longer around and has passed away.”
“Mm.” Soren took a deep breath. “I understand.”
After that, he glanced at the card in Cherise’s hand. “Serafina didn’t steal that, nor did she find it. Our neighbor gave it to her. She hasn’t been feeling unwell for the past two days either. She doesn’t have much, appetite for dinner because our neighbor has been treating her to delicious fruits.”
He wrapped himself tightly in his bath towel and added, “I’m going to bed, Mommy. Good night.”
Cherise looked at the access card in her hand.
Our neighbor has been giving Serafina fruits?
She sighed. This silly girl.
She didn’t even tell me after accepting food from someone else.
I must thank the neighbor.
Furthermore, Serafina can’t keep our neighbor’s access card with her…
Cherise took a deep breath. She rummaged through the fridge and found some pierogi dough and filling.
She sat under the light and wrapped a batch of pierogis. After cooking them, she got up and left the house with the pierogis. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Her daughter had been staying at their neighbor’s house for two days without her knowledge. Now that she knew, she needed to repay her neighbor’s kindness.

Upon hearing the door close, Soren let out a light sigh as he lay on the bed before closing his eyes.
Cherise had brushed her hair and changed into casual clothes before she walked over with a plate of steaming pierogis. She rang the doorbell of the house across from them.
She had noticed that the lights in the house were still on, indicating that the owner was still awake.
A man’s voice quickly came from inside. “Who’s there?” Damien deliberately lowered his voice..
Cherise took a deep breath and cleared her throat. “I’m your neighbor from across the hallway. My daughter has been eating your strawberries for the past two days, so I’ve made some pierogis for you in
return.”
The man inside chuckled lightly. “That sounds good. It’s been a while since I’ve had your pierogis.”
Cherise was startled. This voice, this tone….
Before she could process it, the door swung suddenly open. A tall man in light gray pajamas smiled at her from the inside.
Cherise was so taken aback that she almost dropped the plate. Thankfully, the man was quick to catch it. “Are you that surprised?”
