Chapter 448 Skeletons In The Closet
Mandy smiled, then quickly averted her gaze.
Damien pondered for a moment, but the truth came to him quickly.
He hadn’t expected Danielle to let Mr. Kolson harm him, but Mandy had anticipated it. Perhaps Mandy
knew Danielle better than Damien did.
Mandy might also be responsible for the Tanners’ prompt arrival.
Damien shook his head sadly. He had allowed Mandy to work with the Tanners because he was
concerned that Danielle would make her life difficult. Besides that, the Tanners were the best people to
handle Mandy’s situation..
He hadn’t expected to gain anything from his good deed.
“My sister must be blinded by revenge,” Damien said slowly, his face filled with gratitude towards

“Wait, I’ve changed my mind – she’s just arrogant. She doesn’t see less privileged people as human.”
Aaron waved his hand dismissively in response to Damien’s comment. “You don’t have to explain
sister’s behavior to us. We’ve been observing her since childhood and anticipated this.”

The older man sighed. “I was worried for Cherry too. I knew that your sister would take advantage of
Cherry’s kindness.”
He glanced at Beckham, who was tenderly looking at his daughter. “However, I’m less worried
now.
“Now that people know Cherry is a Tanner, your sister wouldn’t dare to do anything against her, even if
she doesn’t like Cherry.”
“But remember, even though she’s a Tanner, Cherry is also my granddaughter.”
Aaron shifted in his seat to get more comfortable. “We have another reason for being here.”
“What are you planning now?” Peter scowled at Aaron.
“We want to expose how you treated Cherry” Aaron yawned lazily.
“I hope everyone in Ziphon will hear about it.”
Peter wheezed loudly and almost choked on his saliva. “We’re in Adania, and Ziphon is two thousand
miles away. The Lenoirs would lose their social standing if people in Ziphon found out how badly they
treated Cherise.”

“Why do you care about your reputation now?” Aaron huffed before looking at Damien. “Do you care
about it?”
Damien stared at him and instinctively pulled Cherise into his arms. “No, I don’t.”
“Shall we proceed with the wedding celebration?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAaron Tanner rolled his eyes at Peter. “Yes, we planned to organize the wedding celebration. However,
since her parents are here, they should take care of her. We can’t possibly host two celebrations – one
after we find her father, and another after we find her mother, right?”
“I agree.”
Damien gazed at Cherise, who was peacefully sleeping in his arms, and the memory of their encounter
at the hospital resurfaced in his mind.
Her heart-wrenching sobs had awakened him from his slumber,
He had instinctively rushed to her side and freed her from the chains imposed by the public jury.
She was the balm in his life, the only thing that anchored him to this world.
As he gently caressed her face, he felt his heart bloom like a flower, carried by a gentle spring breeze.
She would be overjoyed to know that her parents are alive. After all, family comes first to her.
Although Damien didn’t like the idea of Cherise and Charis meeting, he trusted that things would
progress positively since Aaron had initiated the encounter.
