“Grandma, whenever you miss me, just call my mom, and I'll come see you! But I bet we'll be here every day.

Auntie’s here, and we wouldn't want to miss her.” With the New Year approaching, Serenity and Zachary were also preparing to move back to the villa.

Following tradition, many family members were returning to Wildridge Manor, as set by the old lady.

Though everyone usually preferred their homes in the city for convenience, they always came together at the manor for the New Year, honoring the family’s reunion custom.

After the third day, everyone could go wherever they pleased.

The old lady had no daughters of her own, so she cherished this time to be with her family.
