Chapter 27 - Raising a toast

Camilla came back home with her family drained of energy after they took some photos together for memories of the occasion which was like a tradition for them.

Upon entering her room she saw a gift sitting on her bed and she curiously shut her down and went to check it out.

she saw a handwritten note on top of the gift and read it out.

"From Thane" she read the the contents.

Feeling tired she dropped the gift back on the bed and went to freshen up to feel more revitalized.

By the time she was out of the bath it was already time to eat.

Glancing at the gift sitting proudly on her bed again she closed the door and went downstairs to have dinner with her family.

Here comes the new graduate of the Emberstone family the trio already sitting on the table fawned upon her.

She smiled feeling contented that nothing was ruining her family time again.

Knowing that nothing could stop her from ever loving this family of hers she grinned at them and she came closer and sat down on the right hand side of her father who was sitting at the head table.

They were served food and Mark suddenly stood up remembering he almost forgot something and trio looked at him feeling puzzled.

Mark signaled at the servant and she went upstairs and returned with a bottle of wine in her hand.

Julia smiled at how thoughtful her husband was and stood up followed by Liam and Camilla.

Mark opened and poured some of the wine to the wine glass that had already been arranged in front of him and he handed them each and he raised his hand for a toast.

To the pride of the family who always exceeds all our expectations and excels in a category she finds herself in.

Welcome to the society Camilla always remember your roots he said in a loving fatherly voice.

Cheers he said and clinked his glass together with Julia's before clinking with the children's glass and the all sat down to eat their dinner.
