âAlsoâ¦â Beckham sighed. âThereâs a matter concerning Gwenn.â Beckham paused before
continuing, âGwenn is engaged to Evan Tanner. Although I cannot cancel the engagement
for them, I want to make it clear that Gwenn is no longer my adopted daughter and has no
connection to me.â Cherise nodded while pouring orange juice for Serafina. âAll right. Do
you want me to go with you to explain to them?â âNo.â Beckham shook his head gently,
âMandy will be there to assist me. Donât you trust her?â Cherise pursed her lips. âI trust

Shawbury.â Classmate? Cherise furrowed her brow. âHow is that possible?â The students in
Shawbury were all from the nearby villages. All of them were rural folks. How could there
be someone who could afford such a refined servant? âNothing is impossible.â The man in
black continued smiling. âMy master mentioned he used to share a desk with you but later
