Nathan chimed in, "Yes, you should learn from Stefan."
Stefan chuckled, replying, "It would be my honor if I can be of use."
Nathan complimented him, his praise extending to the elders from the Anderson family, as it was they who raised Stefan.
After a round of mutual flattery, the others descended the stairs, greeting Nathan and his son.
Hayes was the last to descend.
Nathan spotted him and asked, "When did you get here?"
Actually, he already knew Hayes was around.
"I've been here a few days, enjoying the beautiful views and tranquility of Stefan's home. Shamelessly, I've decided to take a vacation here."
"Hayes, feel free to stay as long as you like. You're always welcomed."
Lucinda thought to herself; her cousin was still single. Perhaps she could play matchmaker and find him a good girl.
She laughed at the thought of her matchmaking dreams.
"Lucy, where's your mom?"
After exchanging pleasantries with everyone, Nathan inquired about his wife.
Having arrived late, he hadn't seen her.
"She woke up early, took a walk in the garden, and then felt tired. She's probably taking a nap and won't be up until closer to noon."
