Early the next morning, Anya's suitcase was set by the door, with Naomi's beautifully wrapped gift perched on top.

Hansen was reluctant to see his family leave. "Anya, make sure you video call Grandpa when you get home. Come back early once the holiday is over."

Anya nodded. "Grandpa, make sure you go to bed early and don't stay up late playing video games. It's not good for your health."

Hansen stubbornly replied, "Grandpa doesn't play."

Andre also chimed in, "Listen to your parents when you get home. If you want to come back, we'll come to pick you up."

Anya, with her backpack on, took one last look at her family sending her off, her gaze lingering on Henry with reluctance. "Henry, sister is leaving now. I will miss you."

Henry yawned cooperatively, then flopped his head onto his dad's face, showing off their close father-son bond.

"Auntie, make sure you send me lots of baby videos."

Mia pointed at her son, "Why don't you take him with you?"

Anya: "...Okay." She was actually about to reach out and pick up the baby.

Bruce laughed. "Mia, don't joke about that."

Mia laughed, "Big brother, I'm just kidding. Don't worry, your little nephew isn't going anywhere. If Anya took him, she'd have to bring him back crying before even getting on the highway."

Just before leaving, Anya got her wish to hold Henry for a while, gently kissing his little cheeks several times, her eyes locked on the adorable little bundle in her arms. "Sister Anya has to go now. I'll miss you." Henry stuck out his tongue, looking obediently at Anya, then turned his head to watch his parents.

Since Leo was coming back in the afternoon, he drove to the doorstep, and everyone went out to send Anya off. Upon seeing his uncle holding the baby, Leo felt inexplicably nervous again, "Uncle..." Andre, looking at Anya, reminded her, "Drive safely."
