Chapter 0401

In stark contrast to the Redwine family’s power plays, the Chesire family’s Baltimore Mansion in Ol ‘Mare was a picture of bliss and harmony.

Caleb’s hair was just beginning to show signs of gray at the temples as he looked around the living room. He spoke with a courteous tone, “I won’t be long, I have other matters to attend to. Since Alex and Amber aren’t here, could I see their photos? I’m sorry I missed their wedding.”
