“Of course not!” Estelle exclaimed, finding the idea utterly ridiculous. “Poor Sylvia, all alone in the world, fending for herself in J City. If she really gets together with Gab, it could be a perfect match!” Magdalene had initially mentioned it in passing, but now she was warming up to the idea, “Grandpa wouldn’t look down on Sylvia’s background, would he? She’s not beneath the Jarvises, is she?” “Of course not!” Estelle replied. “That settles it then!” Magdalene’s face lit up as if the matter was already decided. Estelle chuckled, “But Gab might not agree!” “Let’s not tell him just yet. Once he meets Sylvia, who knows? He might fall head over heels for her on the spot!” Magdalene grinned mischievously, “Sylvia’s a knockout – the type who turns heads wherever she goes. She could definitely knock Gabriel off his high horse!” Estelle must have been brainwashed by Magdalene’s enthusiasm as she asked, “You sure about this?” “Pretty darn sure!” Magdalene boasted confidently, “How long is Gab staying in J City?” “Maybe two or three days.” “Great, I’ll call Sylvia this afternoon when we get back!” Estelle gave her a pat on the shoulder, her voice filled with earnest, “I’m counting on you!” Imagining Gabriel meeting Sylvia, Estelle couldn’t help but laugh, turning away to lean on the railing to conceal her amusement. “Aren’t you getting a bit ahead of yourself?” Magdalene raised an eyebrow at her friend’s mirth.

Then I’ve got to put in the extra effort!” Magdalene’s eyes sparkled with cunning. “Go get ’em!” Estelle cheered her on with a thumbs-up. Her tone was teasing, not quite taking the matter seriously, just waiting to see Magdalene make a fool of herself. Sylvia and Gabriel? Estelle thought it just seemed unlikely. Lunch was a lively affair, with no mention of the Macclains or the Crawleys. They were all simply enjoying one another’s company, laughing and chatting. Old Mr. Quintin

Mr. Quintin beamed, “Let’s all get together more often these next few days!” He then turned to Old Mr. Jarvis, “The holidays are coming up. Why don’t you just stay in J City instead of going back to C City? It’s much more festive here!” Old Mr. Jarvis snorted, “I’m the life of the party wherever I go. You’re just basking in my glow!” “I’m graciously offering to keep you here, and you snub me!” Old Mr. Quintin huffed, then turned to Estelle and Gabriel, “You two should stay. Let that old stick-in-the-mud go back by himself. I’d like to see how lively he can be on his own!” “My grandkids, why
