After dinner, the family was ushered into the cosy living room. The atmosphere was warm, filled with the pleasant aroma of the meal they had just shared.
Suddenly, Ajax appeared, carrying an assortment of elegantly wrapped packages and boxes into the room.
Aurora and Verena were seated together on the plush couch, engrossed in a conversation. Meanwhile, Aaron and Cullen found themselves engaged in their own discussion on the opposite side of the room.
"Verena, dear, come here." Grandpa Cian's gentle yet commanding voice called for her attention. He stood beside a beautifully arranged table, upon which rested an array of carefully wrapped gifts.
Confused, Verena glanced at Louis, seeking reassurance. He nodded subtly, encouraging her to follow his grandfather's request.
With a mixture of curiosity and anticipation, she rose from her seat and approached the table, stopping in front of Grandpa Cian.
