Chapter 450 A Surprising Encounter
Since Cherise denies being a Tanner, Damien can only wait until she accepts the fact.
Cherise nodded in agreement that they could thank Aaron Tanner before adding. “I promised to take Grandpa Aaron out to try some local specialties when he comes to Adania.”
She turned away to get her phone. “What do you suggest?”
Damien smiled weakly as he watched her scroll through the list of local specialties. “I can’t recommend anything special in Adania. However, it might be more meaningful if you could cook for him. Nothing beats homecooked food.”
Cherise slapped her forehead in embarrassment. “You’re right!”
Grandpa Aaron has never tasted the dishes I’ve made. Furthermore, it would express my gratitude more sincerely if I cooked for him.
Cherise took out her notebook and began listing what she would cook for lunch. Once she had planned everything, she called for Frances, and the ladies went out for a shopping trip.
Despite the long shopping list, Cherise’s excellent planning skills shortened their trip to a mere thirty minutes.
On their
way back home, they passed a shop that sold tailor-made Western men’s wear. Cherise stared at the well-made suits.
Grandpa Tanner likes traditional things, but I’ve never seen him wear a tailor-made suit when I was staying with the Tanners. It would be nice if I could get a gift for him a simple meal doesn’t feel appropriate.
Cherise sent Frances back home and then went to visit the tailor.
“Excuse me, could you tell me if this suit comes in another color?” Cherise asked one of the salespersons, who had their back turned towards her.
The salesperson turned around and gasped at her in disgust.
“It’s you!”
Cherise blinked at the middle-aged woman. Despite feeling the woman’s hostility, Cherise remained smiling. “Have we met before?”
“Have we met before?” The woman mocked, trying to ridicule Cherise.
“Miss Shaw, how could you forget who I am?”
