Beckham sighed, choosing not to speak further.

After dinner, Cherise went to the kitchen with the housekeeper to wash the dishes as usual.

Damien boldly sat beside Beckham. “Mr. Beckham, how have you been all these past years?”

“And as it happens, Zachary is the lucky new head of the Miles family.”

“Cherise has been married to him for quite some time.”
