My Blind Husband

As the discussion drew to a close, Lennon prepared to depart when Alexis, clad in the white sportswear provided by Cherise, hurried downstairs to summon Damien. “Damien, Cherise wants you upstairs!”

Damien arched an eyebrow inquisitively. “What’s going on?” he asked.

“She found a commemorative album and wants to discuss some things from the past with you,” Alexis explained.

Raising an eyebrow, Damien sensed the significance behind Cherise’s mention of the commemorative album.

Damien agreed to go upstairs. “Alright, I’ll head up now,” he said, turning to Lennon with an apologetic nod. “Sorry, I have something to attend to. I won’t be able to see you off.”

Lennon waved off the apology. “No problem, go ahead.”

As Damien ascended the stairs, Lennon couldn’t help but notice Cherise’s adopted child leaning against the railing and staring at him intently.

Frowning slightly, Lennon addressed the child. “Why are you staring at me like that?”

Alexis didn’t hesitate to express his disdain for Lennon. “I think you’re ugly,” he declared bluntly.

“Compared to Damien, you’re much uglier.”

The straightforward insult took Lennon aback.
