Chapter 483 Tanner Or Shaw
“Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Zachary was about to hang up.
“Wait a second.”
Cherise took a deep breath, “I need to ask you something.”
Zachary was surprised.
There was a moment of silence before he spoke, “What is it?”
Cherise took another breath to steady herself before sharing with him how her grandfather wanted her
to change her name.
“I… I don’t really want to change my name.”
“I’ve been Cherise Shaw for nineteen years.”
“Besides… I don’t have a good relationship with my aunt and uncle. If I change my name…”
She would be distancing herself more and more from them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSoon, they would become strangers.
But she still owed them so much for taking care of her for nineteen years.
“Sure.”
Zachary chuckled, “I understand.”
“Bunny, don’t be upset. There’s always a way.”
His deep, comforting voice warmed her heart.
“Thank you.” Cherise bit her lip.
“Don’t worry about it. We’re about to become a family.”
Zachary hung up.
Cherise stared at her phone for a while. She felt somewhat sad.
It was almost bedtime when Frances knocked on the door. She brought Cherise a warm soup to calm
her nerves. “Mr. Lenoir had me prepare this for you. He said you might have trouble sleeping tonight.”
Cherise eyed the soup and asked, “Where is he?”
“He’s in the study

Cherise bit her lip, “Thank you, Frances. You may leave.”
“I’ll drink the soup after it cools down.”
Cherise sighed when Frances left. Shrugging on a cardigan, she headed to the study.
“Cherise isn’t changing her name. There’s nothing to discuss.”
Cherise overheard Damien’s voice from the study. “Damien, do you understand why we want her to
change her name?”
“The Tanner name will be her protection.”
“If not, I don’t feel safe leaving her here.”
Damien lowered his head and chuckled, “Uncle Tanner, I understand your concerns.”
“But have you considered how Cherise feels?”
“Have you ever thought about whether she wants to change her name? Does she want to completely
cut out her past? And if she wants to accept this new identity?”
“She’s willing.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBeckham Tanner frowned. “Cherise has never rejected us as her family
after all. I think she’s more than happy to be a Tanner.”
We are her biological family,
Sitting on his chair, Damien was filled with frustration towards the self-assured man before him.
“Uncle Tanner, you don’t understand Cherise at all.”
“She doesn’t know how to say no to people. As long as she believes they have good intentions, she will
wholeheartedly accept them.”
“But just because she has difficulty refusing people doesn’t mean she doesn’t have her own thougins
and ideas.”
“Accepting her identity as a Tanner doesn’t mean she’s willing to change everything about herself for
them.”
“In her eyes, the Tanners and the Shaws are her family.”
“By asking her to change her name, you’re forcing her to choose between her adoptive parents and her
biological father.”
“You’re putting her in a difficult position.”
Damien’s voice was filled with tenderness and concern for Cherise.
