Marianne understood and spoke to Cecilia in Britharian. "Cecilia, there's something I'd like to give you. Please cwith me." She then brought Cecilia upstairs and took out a gift and an envelope she had prepared beforehand. Inside the envelope was a thick stack of Brithar dollars.
"Cecilia, I'd like to thank you for treating Seline throughout this time. I know that Mr. Jacobson has already paid you your salary. This is a small token of appreciation from our family, so we hope you'll accept it." Unable to turn down the heartfelt gesture, Cecilia accepted the money and the gift.

This warmth was something that had not happened within the Yates family for a long tnow.
The next afternoon, after Cecilia had left, Tessa accompanied Seline to watch cartoons at home. Suddenly, a video call from Lester popped up.
Tessa was slightly confused. Why was Lester suddenly video calling her? Usually, he would only call her whenever he had something urgent to say. If he did not have anything urgent, he would just text her.
It was the first the had video called her.
Confused, Tessa still answered the phone.
However, to her surprise, it wasn't Lester's face that appeared on her screen, but his cousin, Cassandra. Cassandra looked adorable as she was wearing the pink Prada clip Tessa had given her back then. She had also tied her hair into two ponytails.
When Cassandra saw Tessa answer her call, she immediately smiled brightly as a pair of dimples appeared on her cheeks.
"Ms. Yates," Cassandra called out. Her voice was soft and sweet, much like her personality. When she called out for Tessa, her voice seemed to have increased an octave.
Tessa was fond of Cassandra and quickly responded with a smile. "Oh, it's Cassie." It seemed that Cassandra had been playing with Lester's phone and decided to video call her.
Hearing Cassandra's voice, Seline, who was sitting beside Tessa, immediately leaned over and greeted Cassandra over the phone. "Hi, Cassie!" "Hi, Seline," Cassandra responded with a smile.
Seline inched closer to the phone, and her chubby face was zoomed in on the screen. She looked extremely adorable.

I'll ask my mom to make sdelicious food for you," Seline replied.
"I'm craving the small bear cookies that Mrs. Yates made last time." "Alright. I'll tell my mom and ask her to make those small bear cookies tomorrow." The two girls began chatting through the phone animatedly. Tessa ended up handing her phone to Seline so that they could continue their conversation. Ten minutes later, the person on the other end had changed to Lester.
Seline obediently handed Tessa's phone back to her and said, "Tessa, I've finished talking to Cassie. Cassie's cousin would like to talk to you." Once Tessa took her phone back, she immediately saw Lester's face on the screen.
Smiling, Lester said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Yates. I gave my phone to Cassie to watch a cartoon, but I didn't know that she had tapped out of theand video called you instead? Did she bother you?" "She didn't." "That's good, then."
Tessa smiled and said, "Cassie's adorable. Seline likes playing with Line likes her, and like her too." Lester's expression softened as he smiled. "Seline is also extremely cute. I heard from Cassie that they've made plans for a playdate
tomorrow. Will it be alright if bring her ΟΜ to your place tomorrow?". "It's no trouble," Tessa replied.
"Alright, then. I'll send her over there tomorrow morning just so om happened to have a few cases that I'd like to discuss with you too." "Sure."
