Evelyn returned to the Quintin estate, where Old Mr. Quintin was in the living room’s cozy study, meticulously copying calligraphy onto canvas, while Old Mr. Jarvis dozed off beside him with a cup of tea in hand, seemingly waiting for their return.

“You are back,” Old Mr. Quintin said with a gentle smile, setting down his brush.

Evelyn approached, pouring a cup of tea for Old Mr. Quintin, and chuckled, “Grandpa, you should get some rest. No need to wait up for me. With Gabriel around, I’m safe. Just take good care of yourself.”
