Chapter 561 Still The Same

Shortly after settling down, a waiter served their dishes.

Damien reclined comfortably in his plush chair, a smile playing on his lips as he surveyed the spread before him.

It was evident that Syatt had gone to great lengths to cater to Cherise’s preferences. Otherwise, the table’s array of dishes wouldn’t have perfectly aligned with her taste.

This realization prompted Damien to glance at Cherise with a subtle smile. He asked Syatt, “Did you prepare all of Cherise’s favorite dishes?”

“Absolutely!”

Syatt looked very pleased with himself. “I’ve even bribed the hospital staff to slowly discover Dr. Shaw’s favorite food.”

Damien nodded. He shifted his gaze to Cherise and remarked, “I’m surprised your preferences are still the same after all these years, Dr. Shaw.”

The underlying implication in his words wasn’t lost on Cherise.

Her face paled.

She understood that Damien had intentionally said it to ridicule her previous assertion at the Mexican restaurant that he didn’t know her.

She conceded that she hadn’t changed much in the past five years and hadn’t put on a facade in front of Damien in the past.

She had only made that statement to put some distance between them.

It unexpectedly became a tool for Damien to taunt her.
