Chapter 47: The Leroux Family

While Adrian, Selene, and Eleanor were discussing various topics... ranging from early childhood education to school systems and mental development. Freya sat quietly on the couch, happily munching on the snacks her grandfather had prepared.

Just then, the door opened and Fiona entered, her presence as commanding as ever.

"Eleanor, you’ve already arrived. Good," she said, her tone calm and hint of relief.

Eleanor immediately stood up and bowed respectfully. "Good afternoon, Grandma."

Fiona smiled faintly and gestured for her to sit back down. "No need to stand on ceremony. Relax."

Then, her gaze shifted to the little one sitting on the couch. "And what is my sweetheart eating? Look what I brought for you!" she said warmly as she approached Freya, holding a finely wrapped, ornate box in her hand.

"Present! What is it?" Freya’s eyes sparkled as she leapt off the sofa and stretched her arms toward the box.

"Open it and see. It’s a surprise," Fiona said, handing it over.

Freya quickly unwrapped the box, only to blink in surprise. "An Xbox Wireless Controller?" Her excitement dimmed slightly. "But I already have one."

"Take it in your hands like you’re playing," Fiona said with a knowing smile.

Curious, Freya did as instructed and immediately brightened up. "It’s smaller! It feels better to hold... like it fits my fingers perfectly!"
