My Billionaire Family 392
Chapter 392
Rayburn maintained his posture, staring at Cherise for a long moment. Seeing Rayburn like this brought a bit of
sadness to Cherise's heart. Honestly, he was a victim too. Rayburn and Cherise sat in silence, facing each other.
Cherise wasn't in a hurry, quietly sitting there and taking a sip of coffee whenever she felt thirsty.

In the past half-hour, all his thoughts, ideas, and memories flashed through his mind one by one.
Each possibility Rayburn thought of felt like a needle piercing his heart. Every possibility he considered left him

someone was all worthless. It was
nonsense.
Rayburn also hated himself for not being by Megan's side all these years, leaving her to face everything by
herself. She had to support a family and raise kids on her own.
She was such an optimistic and kind woman in her youth. How desperate she must have felt facing such a life.
Endless thoughts and speculations filled his mind. Tears blurred his eyes, making him unable to speak,

Hearing this, Rayburn shook his head. "I'm very sure, one hundred percent sure, that you are the blood of Megan

After calming down again, Rayburn spoke, "Cherise, with your abilities, you must know what your grandmother

should head back now," Rayburn stood up and nodded repeatedly. His face showed a lot more disappointment
and sadness than when he arrived. The once energetic Rayburn seemed quite deflated.
Rayburn walked Cherise to the car parked at the door. Without saying goodbye, Cherise got into the car. Rayburn
