âDonât yell at me. It wonât change the fact that your grades were poor.â

Aaron shot a glare at Beckham and held Cheriseâs hand with a loving smile. âI wish you the best in your
studies. Pursue your dreams and do what you love! Donât be like Damien. All he does is work.â
Cherise giggled. âI will, Grandpa.â
âIâm very fond of you. Please come and visit often!â
The old man was reluctant to let Cherise go. âIâll miss all the laughter once you leave. Oh, Iâm so sad to
see you go.â
Cherise couldnât bear to see Aaron shed tears over her departure. She bit her lip and said, âGrandpa,
you can call me whenever you miss me. Otherwise, do visit us in Adania. Our house is huge, so both
you and Mr. Beckham can stay with us. Iâm sure you havenât tried the local specialties in Adania. Iâll
take you to try out all the delicacies when you come!â
Beckham rolled his eyes. Who wants to visit your small, backward city?
On the other hand, Aaron was overjoyed. âReally? Will you welcome an old man like me?â
Cherise nodded. âOf course!â
Aaron glanced at Damien. âWhat about Damien? Will you welcome me too?â
Standing behind Cherise, Damien smiled faintly, âI welcome all of Cheriseâs friends.â
Aaronâs tears were instantly replaced with smiles. âAwesome! Iâll go check out Adania when thereâs a
chance!â
Perceiving his fatherâs playfulness, Beckham shook his head helplessly.
He turned to look at Zachary and asked, âTheyâre here to say goodbye, but what brings you here at this
hour?â
âIâm here to say goodbye too.â
Zachary smiled at Beckham. âIâm flying tomorrow morning. Charisa called urgently and summoned me
back to handle some business. So, I wonât disturb you any longer.â
Beckham nodded. âMs. Miles is indeed a capable businesswoman. Please send my regards
to her.â

Zachary was slightly startled. âSure.â He nodded. Then, he added, âCharisa will surely bet delighted to
know that youâre aware of her.â
After Zachary left, Cherise and Damien continued chatting with Aaron for a while before going to bed.
The next morning, Cherise was awakened by Zachary as he knocked on her door non- stop. âBunny!
Lazy little bunny! Get up! Itâs time to go!â
Cherise got up sulkily and mumbled, âWhat are you doing here?â
Zachary, who was neatly dressed, grinned at Cherise with his luggage in his hand. âIâm going to hitch a
ride on your private plane!â
Cherise rolled her eyes at him. âWhere are you heading to?â
âWherever youâre going!â
Cherise pouted. âAre you saying your family business is in Adania?â
âSmart girl!â Zachary beamed from ear to ear. âInitially, Charisa gave me money to buy a plane ticket,
but when I told Old Mr. Tanner about it, he suggested I should keep the money as my wedding fund for
the future!â
Cherise was amused by his serious look. âWedding fund? What a hardworking man. You donât even
have a girlfriend yet, and youâre already preparing the wedding fund!â
Zachary giggled. âExactlyâ¦â
