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 family’s 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.

cating.”
Cherise offered a faint smile. “It’s alright. Daydreaming during meals won’t hurt-but
daydreaming during work is unacceptable.” Saying this, she transferred a piece of roasted chicken.
from her plate to Cherise’s bowl.
Cherise pursed her lips, bowing her head to nibble on the piece of chicken..
Aunt Sarah’s culinary skills were as exceptional as ever, bringing a sense of satisfaction to everyone
dining at the table.
After lunch, Cherise’s 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 wasn’t skilled at gaming, but Zachary was slightly better. Despite receiving criticism from their

hadn’t returned.
A sliver of concern arose within the young girl. Registration is known to be a hassle, but she was sure it

Cherise scrunched up her nose while watching his departure, murmuring to herself, “He’s always in

His deep voice slightly warmed Cherise’s heart. She pursed her lips, eagerly reaching up to hug his
neck. “Darling, my mom is truly a wonderful mother. I’ve misunderstood her all this time.”
Ever since the incident with Uncle Elvis, Cherise’s perspective of the head of the Miles Family had
always been distorted. Even upon learning she was her birth mother, Cherise hadn’t been too thrilled.
However, the reassurance from Zachary and Charisa before the meal finally made her realize that she
had misunderstood her all along.
