Chapter 273

The Rodriguez family didn’t have a tradition of staying up late for the Ember Festival. By the time Celeste and the others got home, Betty was already asleep,

When Celeste went upstairs, the clock struck midnight.

Her phone had been vibrating nonstop.

Matthias, Beck, and several colleagues from YodaVision had sent her Ember Festival greetings, including Theodore and Harold.

She replied to each of them, including Beck, before sending greetings of her own to Zachary and Lottle.

Just then, Theodore sent another message, asking if she had time in the next few days. He mentioned that he’d been too busy with work to properly thank her last time, and now that he had a break, he wanted to take her out for a meal.

After finishing her chat with Theodore, Celeste set down her phone and went to take a shower.

Whether they visited or not, seeing Isabelle was always painful for the Rodriguez family.

But on a day like this, how could they truly not go?

Every year, on the morning of Ember Festival’s first day, Celeste and Betty would prepare a feast, pack it up, and take it to the nursing home.
