Thorne and the others, including Moran, paused and looked at him in surprise as he suddenly stood up.

Seeing his unusual expression, Thorne asked, “Is something wrong?”

Granger snapped back to reality, his gaze lingering on Thorne and Vesta before he slowly shook his head. “No, nothing,” he replied, sitting back down.

“Yes, please,” Daisy replied eagerly.

She scampered over and took a couple of sips from the cup Granger held out before dashing back to chat with Jasmine. They had been discussing a little toy Jasmine had brought for her.

After finishing her drink, Daisy handed a small figurine to Jasmine. “I got this when I went to see a movie over the New Year holiday. It’s for you.”

Jasmine was delighted, accepting it with wide eyes. “You went to the movies on New Year’s too?”

“Yeah! My Uncle and that lady took me,” Daisy said, beaming. “After the movie, we played some games. That lady is really good at them, but we had to leave early because my Uncle had something come up.”
