Cherise pursed her lips, silently sympathizing with Beckham. Since reuniting with her father, she had often overheard her mother and
grandfather comment on his intelligence. Beckham, other hand, saw himself as exceptionally brilliant. If he were to discover the familyâs
opinion of his intelligence, it could be a harsh revelation for him. The thought brought a faint smile to her lips.
At the same time, she felt a pang of sadness, knowing that her parents would never reconcile after everything that had happened. When her
mother left her father nineteen years ago to marry the head of the Miles Family, they ceased to be a family. Despite her longing for them to be a
family again, their relationship issues were beyond her control.
âWhatâs on your mind?â
Elvis glanced at Cherise, shaking his head. âYou know, sheâs always like this, lost in thought while. cating.â
Cherise offered a faint smile. âItâs alright. Daydreaming during meals wonât hurt-but

daydreaming during work is unacceptable.â Saying this, she transferred a piece of roasted chicken. from her plate to Cheriseâs bowl.
Cherise pursed her lips, bowing her head to nibble on the piece of chicken..
Aunt Sarahâs culinary skills were as exceptional as ever, bringing a sense of satisfaction to everyone dining at the table.
After lunch, Cheriseâs stomach was pleasantly full. Leaning back in her chair, she played games with Zachary. Meanwhile, Charisa went with
Elvis and his mother to start the procedure for changing her name.
Cherise wasnât skilled at gaming, but Zachary was slightly better. Despite receiving criticism from their teammates, they were slowly improving.
Their immersion in the game made them lose track of time.
When Cherise regained her awareness, it was already three in the afternoon, and Charisa and Elvis hadnât returned.
A sliver of concern arose within the young girl. Registration is known to be a hassle, but she was sure it wasnât meant to take this long.
Her first assumption was that her grandmother might have fainted. After all, her grandmotherâs health wasnât the best; she had occasionally
collapsed while she was out.
âDonât worry so much, little bunny,â Zachary said gently, his brows furrowed as he lowered his gaze to his phone. âThereâs a bit of trouble with
the Adania Group. I have to leave. Let Damien. take you back; Aunt Charisa needs my help with the procedures.â

Cherise scrunched up her nose while watching his departure, murmuring to herself, âHeâs always in such a hurryâ¦â
She had wanted to return with him. Left with no choice, Cherise called Damien.
In the evening, Damien finally arrived, slightly delayed.
âHow was your day?â The man secured her seatbelt, speaking softly.
His deep voice slightly warmed Cheriseâs heart. She pursed her lips, eagerly reaching up to hug his neck. âDarling, my mom is truly a wonderful
mother. Iâve misunderstood her all this time.â
Ever since the incident with Uncle Elvis, Cheriseâs perspective of the head of the Miles Family had always been distorted. Even upon learning
she was her birth mother, Cherise hadnât been too thrilled. However, the reassurance from Zachary and Charisa before the meal finally made her
realize that she had misunderstood her all along.
