Chapter 383 I’ll Keep My Promise

“These two are the sons of my friends from the army. They came to visit me.”

Elvis smiled when he saw Cherise. “It looks like you had a great time in Europe. Your cheeks have

gotten rounder.”

Cherise was surprised and instinctively touched her cheeks. “Really? That can’t be true!”

I remember to exercise every day!

I even controlled my intake of ice cream and cake. How could I have gained weight?

“Uncle Shaw.”

As Cherise pondered, Damien entered the house carrying a box.

He immediately noticed the two men sitting on the couch.

Elvis repeated the explanation he had given Cherise.

Then, he smiled and turned to the two men. “My niece and her husband have arrived. Would you

gentlemen mind waiting in the inner room?”

“They will only be here for half an hour. I will discuss your fathers’ matters shortly.”

The men exchanged glances and did not object. “We will wait for half an hour. Please don’t delay it any

further.”

The taller man warned before heading to the inner room.

“Sure, sure.”

Elvis smiled and continued, “I’ll keep my promise. Don’t worry.”

After the two men left, Elvis sighed and looked at the suitcase in Damien’s hands. “Did you bring

presents for us?”

“Yes!”

Cherise looked around the room excitedly. “Where’s Aunt Sarah and Grandma?”

“And where are Sky and Tay? Isn’t it summer vacation?”

Elvis shook his head resignedly. “It’s summer, and you know how much your grandmother loves

“Oh…”

Cherise looked down, feeling disappointed.

He chuckled and replied, “I didn’t tell your grandmother that you would be back. I wanted to surprise

her.”

“Unfortunately, the plan backfired. She and your aunt went out before I could stop them.”

Elvis patted Cherise’s head. “Do you want me to call them to come home?”

“It’s okay.”

Cherise pursed her lips. “I will see them again. I will come back another time to talk to

Grandma.”

After all, she had only planned to stay for half an hour and leave after dropping off the gifts.

She had to leave soon because she had missed a lot of classes and the final exams were approaching.

She couldn’t afford to delay her studies any longer.

With that in mind, Cherise sighed. “I will have finals in less than half a month.”

“Once I finish my finals and start summer vacation, I will come here and stay for a few days. Then,

Grandma will be able to see me every day. She won’t have time to watch people play cards anymore!”

“Besides, I’m good at card games. I can play with her.”

Cherise had spent many summer vacations playing cards with her grandmother and aunt.

The memories filled her with nostalgia.

“Haha, great!”

Elvis smiled and patted Cherise’s shoulder. “Can you show me what you bought?”

Upon hearing that, Cherise turned around and opened the suitcase.
