Estelle eyed Old Mr. Jarvis with concern. "I noticed you were coughing during our video call yesterday. Have you taken any medication?" "It's just a chill I caught. Dr. Green checked me out; it's nothing serious," Old Mr. Jarvis chuckled. "So, your friend's wedding is over?"

"Yes, and your gift was very much appreciated. My friend sends his thanks through me," Estelle replied with a smile.
