    years. Sleep cluded him, even with the aid of sleeping pills. His love for her was a me that burned so

    Cherise’s slumber was fleeting, reced by an awakening at Damien’s gentle touch.


    “I know Uncle Beckham had asked me not to disturb you,” Damien told her, kissing her tenderly.


    “But I believe you might prefer witnessing your parents reunion rather than continuing your slumber”


    Cherise’s drowsiness vanished in an instant, her eyes widening in dis

    to a regr hospital room. The room was still under heavy guard, and Zachary stood at the entrance, a


    faint smile ying on his lips as he observed their arrival.


    “So, you decided to bring her here after all,” Zachary remarked with amusement. I thought you’d
