    “Also…” Beckham sighed. “There’s a matter concerning Gwenn.”


    Beckham paused before continuing, “Gwenn 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.”


    Cherise nodded while pouring orange juice for Serafina. “All right. Do you want me to go with you to


    exin to them?”


    “No.” Beckham shook his head gently, “Mandy will be there to assist me. Don’t you trust her?”


    Cherise pursed her lips. “I trust her.”


    She couldn’t deny that Mandy was much morepetent than her in many matters. Since Mandy


    would be there, Cherise didn’t have to worry about her father.


    After dinner, Beckham went to get the car while Cherise waited with the children at the parking lot exit.


    But before Beckham arrived, a man dressed in ck appeared. The man bowed to Cherise politely.


    “Greetings, my master would like to inquire if you are Cherise Shaw.”


    Cherise nodded in confusion. “Yes, I am Cherise. Who’s your master?” She couldn’t recall knowing


    anyone in Ziphon other than Zachary.


    “Were you a student in Shawbury?”


    Cherise nodded. “Yes.”


    Shawbury was the town near Shaw’s vige. But why was he asking her these questions?


    “Very well.” The man in ck gestured courteously for her to follow him. “My master said he would like


    to chat with you.”


    Cherise was stunned. She stepped back with the children, saying, “I’m sorry, I don’t know your master,


    and I have no interest in chatting with him.”


    “But my master knows you and wishes to talk to you.” The man in ck approached her, smiling


    politely. “Please rest assured. My master is not a bad person. He was just your ssmate back in


    Shawbury.”


    Cherise furrowed her brow. “How is that possible?”


    The students in Shawbury were all from the nearby viges. All of them were rural folks. How could


    there be someone who could afford such a refined servant?


    “Nothing is impossible.” The man in ck continued smiling. “My master mentioned he used to share a


    desk with you butter transferred schools. He saw you standing here and recognized you instantly, so


    he wanted to catch up with you. My master said if you refuse, I must bring you to him by force.”


    Cherise furrowed her brow, unable to recall a ssmate with such a prominent status. Just as she was


    about to refuse again, Beckham drove the car out of the underground parking lot.


    She pursed her lips, ushered her children to the car, and nced at the man in ck. “Tell your master


    that I have personal matters to attend to. If he wants to see me, we will meet if chance allows.” With


    that, she entered the car and closed the door.


    The man in ck frowned, wanting to say something, but Beckham’s car had already driven away.


    “Who was that?” Beckham asked softly as he drove.


    Cherise shook her head, “I don’t know. He imed his master wanted to see me because we used to


    be ssmates.”


    After saying that, Cherise shrugged helplessly, “When I was in school, my ssmates were all from the


    viges near Shawbury; there wouldn’t be anyone with such a prominent status. He must be lying.”


    “Do you want to ask Zachary to block the car behind us?”
