Missha also joined them to dance. The three women waved the sparklers around while the men stood at one side and laughed.
Theodore showed a rare smile that revealed a few of his teeth. His eyes were filled with love. It seemed like it had been a long time since he had seen Everleigh smile like this.
He had almost forgotten about how they had gotten through these past few years.
The happiness would dilute the painful memories. They did not feel like this before, but the feeling was getting stronger now.
The new year had begun, so they decided to visit some relatives. Everleigh, Theodore and Xavier went to visit Helen. They did not visit her before this, so they decided not to delay it further.
She was overjoyed to see them visit her with the children.
"Bring the gifts for the two children quickly," she quickly instructed.
"Great- Grandma, Happy New Year." Adrienne's mouth was sweet as usual. Every word she said made Helen grin from ear to ear.
"Happy New Year. Come, this is for the both of you."
Alastair and Adrienne took the gifts and said, "Thank you, Great- Grandma." Then, they hugged her.
Helen did not refuse. She enjoyed hugging the two children.
"Grandma, Happy New Year." Theodore and Xavier spoke at the same time.
Everleigh quickly greeted her as well.
"Alright, alright. Come here. There are presents for everyone." Naturally, Helen had already prepared one for all of them.
"It's the new year. Alastair and Adrienne, both of you have grown a lot. Remember to visit me more often in the future. Can you do that?" Helen also doted on the two children very much.
Naturally, she hoped to see them more.
"Okay, Great- Grandma. You should prepare delicious food and ice cream."
"I've prepared everything. If you want to eat anything, just say it." Helen would naturally prepare something delicious.
Xavier was sitting in a wheelchair. When Helen saw the dim light in his eyes, she felt guilty towards this grandson of hers.
"Xavier, come visit whenever you're free. It's boring when I'm alone at home."
His body trembled slightly. After that, he felt relieved as he said, "Okay, I know."
The few of them stayed for a meal. Throughout the entire morning, the smile on Helen's face never disappeared for a single moment.
In the afternoon, Cecil sent a message to Everleigh saying that she had gone to visit the Jenkins family.
Everleigh told her that the members of the Jenkins family would definitely welcome her warmly.
Cecil did, in fact, receive a warm welcome. The moment she entered the house, she was treated so nicely to the point that it made her feel embarrassed.
At this time, in a villa in Lanado City, a woman in a dark blue dress was sitting in front of the mirror. She could not stop touching her own face.
Her eyes were filled with excitement.
"You can leave now. This is your new identity."
"Can I really leave?" The woman sitting in front of the mirror turned around with a new ID card in her hands. Her eyes were filled with a hopeful light.
"Yes, you can leave now," the doctor said expressionlessly.
When she walked out of the gate of the villa with her new identity, tears rolled down her face. She could not remember how long it had been since she last walked out of here.
She could not imagine how she had survived over the past few months.
A portion of her liver had been taken away and her face had been altered.
She was now living with a completely different status, so she did not know whether she should be happy or sad.
Diana raised her head and looked at the bank card and identification card in her hand. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She received a second chance in life and was determined not to have any regrets.
The following days were peaceful once again. The only thing that Everleigh was worried about was Wilson's whereabouts.
