Chapter 352 Don’t Ask
After that, he glanced at Blake, who hadn’t said anything. “Since you’re unwilling to keep. me company, you can return to your room now.”
Blake rolled his eyes at Zachary and kept his cell phone. He looked at Zachary seriously and had no intention of leaving. It seemed like he was keeping watch over Zachary.
Zachary was speechless.
Cherise couldn’t be bothered to respond to him. Her attention was completely occupied by the cakes in the box.
The girl’s slender and fair fingers picked up the cakes one at a time as she happily ate them.
Meanwhile, Zachary and Blake exchanged glances, waiting for Cherise to finish eating. She stroked her satisfied tummy and said, “How delicious!”
Zachary furrowed his brow. Before he could say anything, Blake spoke indifferently. “You should leave.”
This was the first time Blake had spoken to Zachary all morning.
Zachary was astonished.
He stood up and shook his head in frustration before taking the empty cake box. “It’s fine. I won’t argue with minors.”
Then, he turned to Cherise. “By the way, Bunny, you mentioned that you lost your parents. when you were young. Were you raised by your aunt and uncle?”
Cherise nodded. “Yes.”
Zachary smiled nonchalantly. “Can you tell me your uncle’s name?”
“My uncle is El…”
Cherise was about to answer when she suddenly thought of something. “Are you from the census bureau?”
Zachary smiled. “I was just curious about the person who could protect you so well. You’re so innocent and adorable.”
“Why don’t you just call me silly and dumb?”

Cherise pouted. However, she was pleased by Zachary’s praise for her aunt and uncle. “My aunt and uncle are indeed good people.”
“But they’re just laid-back farmers in the countryside. Even if I told you their names, you wouldn’t know them, so don’t ask!”
She waved goodbye with a grin, “Goodbye! Remember to tell Grandpa that I loved the
cakes!”
After that, the girl sat on the couch and treated him as if he were invisible. “Blake, where did Dame go?”
“Dame is discussing business. He went to…”
Zachary shook his head indifferently before leaving.
After he sent the cake box to the main villa and returned to his guest room, Kareen leaned against the door with her arms crossed and looked at him. “You were gone for the entiret morning. Were you chatting with your Bunny?”
Zachary returned to the room with a casual smile and sat on the couch. “I finished. watching the sitcom you were watching.”
“In the last episode, the leading lady didn’t end up with the leading man. She chose the supporting actor because…”
Kareen gritted her teeth. She picked up a pillow and threw it at him. “You’ll have bad luck if you spoil the plot!”
Zachary caught the pillow gracefully. A slight smile formed on the corners of his lips. “You’re my younger sister. My bad luck will rub off on you.”
“Why are you so unhappy that you’re cursing yourself too?”
Kareen was furious.
She gritted her teeth. “I don’t think you treat me like a younger sister. You’re nicer to Cherise than me!”
“I wish she was my younger sister.”
Zachary yawned and closed his eyes. “I’m afraid… She’s really Aunt Charisa’s daughter.”
“If that’s the case, she isn’t a younger sister…”
The man’s voice was barely audible. Kareen couldn’t hear him at all.

She frowned. “What are you mumbling about?”
“I said.”
Zachary spoke coldly without looking up. “Stay away from Gwenn. Don’t try to plot against Cherise with her.”
“It’s better to be safe than sorry. If Cherise is really Aunt Charisa and Beckham’s daughter, we can’t afford to offend any of them.”
“Pfft!”
Kareen rolled her eyes. “You’re overthinking.”
