Peter and Mary stepped into the garden, where Catherine, Albert, and Leonard were enjoying coffee.

“My dears! We waited for you, but since you didn’t come out of your room, we decided to start breakfast,” Catherine said apologetically.

“Sorry, Grandma! I was working, and Mary was resting,” Peter replied casually, his arm wrapped protectively around Mary.

“It’s fine, Grandma. We’ll eat now,” Mary sald cheerfully, giving her grandfather a tight hug

“Don’t eat too much, though we’ll have lunch early Catherine said, motioning toward the garden being prepared for her birthday celebration.

“Peter…” Leonard’s deep voice broke the cheerful air,

“Yes?” Peter asked, looking up.

“I’d like to speak with you in the study after breakfast,” Leonard said, a hint of nervousness in his tone.

“Of course. Let me finish eating, and we’ll talk,” Peter replied calmly.

The conversation Peter had with Albert the previous night lingered in his mind. “Soon, you’ll be a father, and you’ll need advice from the man who brought you into this world,” Albert had said. Peter sighed as he took his seat beside Mary, replaying the elder’s advice: “You need to forgive.”

Shortly after, a cart appeared with coffee, French toast, and fruit for the couple.

“Oh, could you bring some milk as well? Mary’s been preferring that lately,” Peter asked the cook

“Of course, sir. I’ll bring it right away,” she replied.

Albert observed the couple, noting their easy affection and how well Peter seemed to know Mary’s needs. His doubts about Peter had all but vanished. While Catherine had warned him about Peter’s womanizing past, the way he cared for Mary was proof enough that he was trustworthy.

The five of them lingered at the table, chatting and laughing like old friends. Even Peter and Leonard shared lighthearted banter, as if the years of tension between them had melted away. Catherine could hardly contain her joy, seeing father and son finally engaging warmly.
