Silently, he savored the taste of the salmon, relishing the nostalgia it brought.

lost granddaughter. I can only express my gratitude through this gift.
“Ahh…” Aaron shook his head sadly as he picked up the suits. “Beckham, help me put on the suit

“You care about others too much, Cherry. Why can’t you think more about yourself? Don’t your want to

The men were at a loss for words. They finally understood the depth of Cherise’s trauma and realized
that her wounds would not heal overnight.
She firmly believed that she was an orphan and would only accept a statement if she had proof.
