Irene, being the host, took out breakfast and everyone gathered in the dining room, where they ate merrily while chatting about this and that.
After breakfast, Bertha volunteered to do the dishes and Vivian tagged along, which was something that the three of them, excluding Vivian, wanted to see.
With Vivian in the mix, it was impossible for Briar to meet with Irene on the side and get the news that she wanted.
So once Vivian volunteered to join the dishes team, Irene and Briar both excused themselves and went upstairs for some private talk.
Inside the study, Irene took out a small gift bag and handed it over to Briar, who looked excited. Her gaze couldn't hide her happiness at all.
Irene smiled joyfully upon seeing that. Giving something to Briar was always a wonderful thing, as she would experience the wonderful feeling of giving.
