Chapter 465 You Never Showed Concern For Me
If Gwenn were to admit that she didn’t know what Aaron liked, all her pretense would have been in vain. Moreover, Beckham would think she was a hypocrite.
Gwenn clenched her teeth. “Of course, I know what Grandpa likes!”
“Cherise, you may have gotten Grandpa a gift, but that doesn’t give you the right to mock!”
“I’ve given Grandpa so many more gifts over the years!”
Cherise smiled and asked, “In that case, can you tell me what kind of gift you gave Grandpa?”
Gwenn clenched her teeth. “Why should I tell you?”
“I’m just curious.”
Cherise smirked as she looked at Gwenn. “Sis, I’ve only recently reunited with Dad and Grandpa. That’s why I want to find out their preferences.”
“You’ve been living with them for nineteen years. You must know what they like.”
“I just want to learn more about them. There’s no need for you to hide it from me.”
“Why don’t you share what you know? After all, we are family. We should prepare gifts for Dad and Grandpa together.”
Cherise’s words made Gwenn grit her teeth. “Cherise, don’t you think this is too much?”
Beckham frowned slightly. “Gwenn, how is this too much?”
“Cherise means well and wants to understand your grandfather’s and my preferences.”
“As her older sister, you should guide her. How can you say she’s causing you trouble?”
Gwenn was at a loss for words. “I…”
“Ms. Tanner, you don’t know anything about your grandfather’s preferences. Contrary to what you claim, you didn’t prepare gifts for Mr. Aaron.”
“I…”
Gwenn gritted her teeth furiously. She had nothing to say in response to Cherise and Jacob’s insults.
“It seems I was right.”
Jacob crossed his arms and glanced at Beckham with an amused smile. “Mr. Tanner, it seems someone needs to be taught manners.”
“Even people like me, from ordinary families, know to prepare gifts for elders on special occasions.”
He glanced at Gwenn. “You should learn more from Cherise from now on!”
“Cherise doesn’t know much about our family, yet she brought a gift for Grandpa to thank us.
“What about you?”
Gwenn didn’t expect Beckham to scold her.
She bit her lip, a hint of hatred flickering in her eyes.
Then, she sniffled and pitifully pursed her lips. “I understand.”
“I’ll learn from Cherise from now on.”
“She is outstanding. I should learn from her…”
She forced a smile and held Cherise’s hand. “Cherise, please teach me from now on.”
“I’ve been living alone all these years. Dad and Grandpa were always busy. There was no one to teach me these things.”
“Please guide me from now on.”
On the surface, she seemed to be asking Cherise to teach her.
However, her words implied that it was all Beckham and Aaron’s fault.
It was as if she was saying, “See, my lack of etiquette is because you never cared about me! You two are always busy. I don’t remember you teaching me anything. How would I know?”
Beckham sighed softly and gently patted Gwenn’s head. “It’s true that I’ve neglected you and failed to teach you many life principles.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise)
🌸 Message to the Author: 🌸 Hi! I just finished reading your story, and I truly loved it — especially Damien and Cherise’s journey. But what completely stole my heart was Lennon and Lucy. Their final scene left me stunned… Lennon being alive, quietly showing up after all that time — it was such a powerful and emotional moment. But it also left me with so many feelings… What happened to him? How did Lucy react after the shock wore off? What did they say to each other? I keep thinking about them. I know they’re side characters, and the story is marked as completed, but I would truly love a bonus chapter — even a small one — to see what came next for them. They deserve that closure. And honestly? So do we, as readers who deeply connected with them. And we would also love to see more of Damien and cherise with their kids. Thank you for creating characters that live so deeply in our hearts. If you ever feel inspired, please consider giving Lennon and Lucy a little more. ❤️...
