Chapter 1739
On the other side, Bard was the pinnacle of suave charm.
Upon seeing them, Louisa couldn''t help but wave energetically. "Bro, sis-inw, you finally made it!"
She instantly became the joyful little sister in their midst, her joy bubbling over.
"Louisa''s been here early, waiting for you guys," Keh 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 hits me right 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 some time.
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 beentely?" 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 I came ahead; we have something to
announce in a little while."
At the mention of an announcement, Louisa''s curiosity was piqued. "Is it about Be?"
"Yes," Eunice nodded, her smile charming.
Louisa thought it was about revealing Arabe''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 Be yet. I was
thinking of making the announcement then. Do you think we should invite the press?"
She wanted the world to know Arabe was her biological daughter but was concerned that too much
spotlight could disturb her normal life.
After all, with Arabe''s varied identities, having reporters constantly around the house would surely
expose herings 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-inw''s meaning. "What announcement?"
"You''ll find out soon enough."
Eunice said no more, and led the way, with Keh and Bard following.
Noticing only his sister, brother-inw, and a handful of servants there to greet them, Bard asked,
"Where''s Be? Why haven''t I seen her yet?"
"Be''s off handling some business in Belloria; she hasn''t returned yet." Keh replied cheerfully.
"This year, it looks like our whole family will finally get to enjoy a healthy and lively New Year, and with
Be 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 dade?" Keh noticed their absence too and echoed the question.
Weren''t they all supposed to celebrate this New Year together?
"They''ll catch a flightter; should be here by tomorrow," Bard said with a smile, then turned to his
brother-inw 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 weed 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," Keh chuckled, then offered Eunice and Bard their cups of coffee.
