Chapter 557 At the airport, Briony greeted the two elders with a warm smile.

Gwendolyn White looked her up and down, concern creasing her brow. "Your face is so pale, darling. Have you been skipping meals and losing sleep again?" Briony gave a helpless little shrug. "Godmother, it's just the cold weather." "I don't believe it-you've gotten thinner. You never seem to tire when you throw yourself into work. James toldyou opened another stulast week. You're running the company, juggling the gallery, and now a new stutoo. Bryn, you're not exactly strapped for cash. Why push yourself so hard?" "James does tend to exaggerate," Briony replied, looping her arm through Gwendolyn's with a gentle smile. "Really, I'm doing what I love. Every day feels full—my life is just the way I want it. Isn't that a good thing?" Gwendolyn sighed, knowing she couldn't win this argument, and just repeated her advice. "You need to find a balance, sweetheart. Don't wear yourself out and undo all the progress you made during those four years in the countryside!" Briony nodded, still smiling. "I know my limits. I promise." They headed back from the airport to Skybreeze Retreat. The moment they stepped inside, Little Nina cracing across the foyer. "Grandma! Grandpa!" "Oh my goodness, look how much you've grown!" Gwendolyn knelt down, cupping Nina's cheeks and kissing her again and again. "Did you miss Grandma?" "I did!" Nina's little voice was as sweet as ever. "Grandma, did you miss me?" "Of course Grandma missed you, my darling!" Gwendolyn reached into her bag and pulled out four gift boxes- two for Little Nina, two for little Mario. "These are presents from Grandpa and Grandma. We wish our two little angels a healthy, happy year ahead!" "Thank you, Grandma! Thank you, Grandpa!" little Mapiped up.

"Thank you, Grandma! Thank you, Grandpa!" Nina echoed, hugging her gifts tightly.

Gwendolyn's gaze softened as she looked at little Mario.

The first tthey'd met, he was shy and withdrawn-a thin, fragile little boy who tugged at the heartstrings. Back then, who could have imagined he was Briony's lost child, the one everyone thought was gone forever? Thankfully, after all the hardships, mother and son had finally found each other. Now, with Briony by his side, Mawas growing into a healthy, happy boy.

The more she looked at him, the more she saw Stewart's features shining through.

The thought of Stewart brought a pang of sadness to Gwendolyn's heart. So young, gone too soon. For a child, that was a sorrow that could never fully heal.

Julia and Kendal returned from the market, their arms full of groceries for the holidays. When they saw Gwendolyn and Carney had arrived, they greeted them with warm enthusiasm.

Gwendolyn had only recently learned from Briony that Julia was now living a normal life. She and Kendal had fallen in love out in the countryside, and with Brionndat blessing, they'd just gotten married a few days ago.

Now, they were husband and wife.

Julia, well into middle age, had blossomed under Kendal's gentle care, becoming lighthearted and carefree, untouched by the worries of the world.

She hadn't regained many memories from before. But she knew Briony was her daughter and that little Maand Little Nina were her precious grandchildren. The rest, she decided, was better left forgotten.

Kendal, always courteous and soft-spoken, dressed in his usual tailored vest and crisp shirt, exuded a quiet, scholarly air! Gwendolyn and ETT: Carney found themselves instantly fond of him, though they couldn't help but feel a little awkward knowing he was Ferdinand's uncle. They had already learned the truth about Ferdinand's background.

Ever since the Wentworth family's downfall and the collapse of Wentworth Group, Ferdinand had vanished without a trace.

For the past six months, the old town's clinic remained open, but Ferdinand was nowhere to be seen.

Both Carney and Gwendolyn felt a lingering sense of regret. As people they @duld who'd seen much of life e teh Ferdinand cared deeply for Briony They'd thought that, with James out of the picture, perhaps there was hope for Ferdinand. But fate had tangled Ferdinand's history with Stewart's in a way that made everything impossibly complicated.
