Chapter 53 I Promised I Would Marry Her
"Damion?" Raymond called him gingerly as he walked slowly over and squatted down in front of the
kid.
Damion only raised his head when he heard Raymond's voice. Fury could be seen in his eyes, and he
asked, "Is your romantic relationship with Beth fake? You dislike her very much? You two will never be
together, will you?"
Raymond had no idea how to answer at this time. After being acquainted with Bethany for some time,
he found that she did not seem to be the kind of person he imagined.
"Even if you really dislike her, even if you will never be with her, I like her, and she is the mommy to die
for in my eyes!"
Speaking of that, Damion could not help but burst into tears. He fixed his eyes brimming with tears on
Raymond as if it were a trial on the latter.
"You said that Aria is my mommy and that I had no choice but to accept her. However, it's actually that
she doesn't accept me, not that I do not accept her. I have always wanted to get her love. I also want to
be like other children and have a mommy who loves me, but Aria does not like me. I tried so hard to
win her heart and get close to her, whereas she pushed me away every time. It was as if there was
something dirty on me. After I got sick, I also wanted her care, but she always avoided me like the
plague. When I was rejected and hated by my so-called mommy, you all never thought I was the one
being hurt. Instead, you all blamed me for being unreasonable and told me to accept her all the time.
You all have never put yourselves in my shoes! I finally met Beth and found the mommy I really want,
but why did it become a heinous crime? Why do I have to dislike people you don't like? Are you my
daddy or not? Do you love me or not?"
"Damion, I'm sorry, it was all my fault before, but I can tell you I surely love you. I love you to bits!"
Hearing what Damion said just now, Raymond felt heartache for him. Damion was only a six-year-old
child; there was a lot that he did not know, and all he wanted was a mother who loved him.
"You don't love me. No one loves me in this family."
"How could that be?" Raymond hurriedly hugged him into his arms and said fondly, "I am your daddy,
how could I not love you? The one I love most in the world is you."
"If you really love me, how could you hurt the one I love?" Damion immediately pushed Raymond away.
"It's impossible for me to see Beth again. There won't be a mommy who loves me as much as Beth did.
Are you all happy to see that happen?!"
Seeing how desperate Damion was, Raymond hurriedly hugged him and uttered, "No, Damion. I
promise that I will let her be your mommy. How does that sound?"
At this time, Raymond made a compromise. Damion had been unhappy during these years. Since he
met Bethany, he had recovered from his illness. Besides, he became lively and willing to make friends.
If there was a person who could change Damion positively, Raymond had no reason to ruin it. From
another point of view, she might not use any special means to make Damion open his heart; perhaps
the two of them were connected to each other by fate.
"You said you would like to have Beth be my mommy? Really?" Damion asked in disbelief.
"I swear, if I lie to you this time, I'll come to a sticky end. Is that enough?" Raymond immediately made
a pinky promise.
Hearing what Raymond said, Damion was petrified and still found it hard to believe it. In order to
confirm it, he asked, "What... What do you mean? Does it mean that you will allow me to take her as
my mommy, or you will marry her?"
"I'll let her be your mommy and my wife legally and openly. Is it good?"
Damion dissolved into laughter with tear streaks on his face. He immediately hugged Raymond and
said, "Thank you, Daddy. Can you marry Beth after she is well and discharged from the hospital?" This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"Sure." Raymond agreed.
"Thanks, Daddy!" Damion said as he excitedly gave Raymond a peck on the cheek. "I love you,
Daddy!"
Damion was six years old, but this was the first time Raymond had seen Damion so happy. If he really
married Bethany, Damion would be able to be happy seeing her every day, wouldn't he?
"All right, Damion. I gotta go to the hospital to take care of her, and you'll stay with Nolan and be good."
"Will do!" Damion nodded obediently.
Seeing that, Raymond was finally relieved. After Raymond left, Nolan looked at Damion and was
confused about why the latter was on cloud nine.
Damion simply said with a smile, "Nolan, thank you for what you did tonight. I'm going to bed now.
Good night."
He then shut the door, leaving Nolan standing outside in bewilderment.
Damion checked the time while lying on the bed. It was very late, so he decided to call Tyrone
tomorrow. If Tyrone knew that his daddy would really marry Beth, he would be very happy, wouldn't he?
Early the next morning, Damion called Tyrone. Today was Sunday, and his phone call disturbed
Tyrone's sleep, making him quite upset.
Especially when he saw it was Damion's call, he didn't feel like answering it and rejected it directly.
However, another call came right away, pissing him off.
"Damion Zavala, what are you trying to do so early in the morning?" Tyrone picked up the phone and
said angrily. "I made it very clear to you last night. From now on, we are strangers to each other."
"I do have something important to tell you." Damion said hurriedly, "Daddy promised me that he would
marry Beth, which is by no means fake this time!"
"Your daddy is going to marry Beth?" Tyrone smiled sarcastically and asked, "Guess whether I'll be
happy about that? Mr. Damion, you gotta be clear that there are many men pursuing Beth. Your father
is nobody! Even if he wants to marry Beth, Beth will not want it. He really fancies himself as another
Brad Pitt, but we don't give a sh*t about him!"
With that, Tyrone was about to hang up, and Damion hurriedly called out, "Wait, Damion!"
"What else do you wanna say? Just finish it all at once, and then I will block you."
"Tyrone, my daddy was in the wrong about what happened before. Could you please give him another
chance?"
"Do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll hang up!"
"I do!" Damion uttered hurriedly, "I do have something else to tell you. Now go to the study, open the
second drawer of the desk, find the fifth book, and turn to page 23."
"What's that?"
"Just do it."
Despite not knowing what Damion was up to, Tyrone still followed what he said and found a black card.
"There is a black card inside. Did you find it?" Damion said, "It has about 700,000 dollars in it. Beth was
in a car accident, so it takes time for her to recover. Besides, Shayla and you also need tuition fees.
You can have this card, and the password is..."
"Hold on!" Tyrone felt humiliated. "What do you mean, Damion Zavala? You're showing off how rich you
are, aren't you?"
Before Damion got to reply, Shayla suddenly came in. She snatched the black card and shouted
excitedly, "Tyrone, the large amount of money is in this card, isn't it?"
