On the other side, Bard was the pinnacle of suave charm.

Upon seeing them, Louisa couldn't help but wave energetically. "Bro, sis-in-law, you finally made it!"

She instantly becthe joyful little sister in their midst, her joy bubbling over.

"Louisa's been here early, waiting for you guys," Kenneth said with a warm smile as he approached and hugged Bard, then gave a

nod towards Eunice with an expression of relief and happiness. "Seeing you standing here, safe and sound, it hitsright in the

feels. Mom would be so pleased."

Previously, after Eunice's fall from the cliff, everyone had thought she was gone for good.

Even Bard had been despondent for stime.

Now, with the couple before there, healthy and together, Louisa hugged Eunice tightly. "The important thing is you're back, you're

back."

Eunice responded with a beaming smile that only enhanced her elegance.

"How have you been lately?" Eunice asked, her eyes tender as she looked at Louisa.

"Everything's been pretty good, but let's not freeze out there. Let's go inside and talk." Louisa linked arms with Eunice and they

headed towards the main house, shivering slightly as the cold wind nipped at her neck. "It's really chilly today. Oh, by the way,

where are mom and dad?"

Mentioning Darren and Belinda, Eunice's smile paused for a split second before brightening again. "They were a bit shaken up

before leaving the house. Bard and | cahead; we have something to announce in a little while."

At the mention of an announcement, Louisa's curiosity was piqued. "Is it about Bella?"

"Yes," Eunice nodded, her smile charming.

Louisa thought it was about revealing Arabella's identity and said, "I've already called and invited friends and family. They'll all be

here for the New Year, but they don't know about Bella yet. | was thinking of making the announcement then. Do you think we

should invite the press?"

She wanted the world to know Arabella was her biological daughter but was concerned that too much spotlight could disturb her

normal life.

After all, with Arabella's varied identities, having reporters constantly around the house would surely expose her comings and

goings.

"Let's discuss that after the announcement. Just prepare yourself for what I'm about to reveal." Eunice said teasingly.

Louisa was puzzled, not quite grasping her sister-in-law's meaning. "What announcement?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

Eunice said no more, and led the way, with Kenneth and Bard following.

Noticing only his sister, brother-in-law, and a handful of servants there to greet them, Bard asked, "Where's Bella? Why haven't |

seen her yet?"

"Bella's off handling sbusiness in Belloria; she hasn't returned yet." Kenneth replied cheerfully. "This year, it looks like our

whole family will finally get to enjoy a healthy and lively New Year, and with Bella here, life couldn't be better."

In the past, with Darren and Belinda's health issues, opportunities for them to gather like this were few and far between, not to

mention having everyone together for New Year.

"Why didn't mom and dad come?" Kenneth noticed their absence too and echoed the question.

Weren't they all supposed to celebrate this New Year together?

"They'll catch a flight later; should be here by tomorrow," Bard said with a smile, then turned to his brother-in-law with concern.

"How have you been?"

"Can't be better." The two men exchanged a casual conversation.

Walking hand-in-hand into the living room with Eunice, Louisa was greeted by Edith and the servants, who welcomed them warmly.

As the servants served up dishes of pastries, fruit, and hot tea, Eunice couldn't help but say, "Please, everyone, don't be so busy

treating us."

"Having you is such a rare treat, that Louisa wishes she could roll out the red carpet with all the best the house has to offer,"

Kenneth chuckled, then offered Eunice and Bard their cups of coffee.
