Liam sat nearby them and was immersed in a book.

Caprice sat huddled next to him and propped her head next to his shoulder, her eyes were fixated on the book as well even though she did not understand its contents.

The children seemed to be having a good, harmonious time.

The messages Sherry had just sent Sylvia were still fresh in her mind. She took another deep breath to compose herself again before she approached the tea table.
