Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 767

Corley glanced around the table, laden with a Thanksgiving feast that would make any cook proud. "Hey, since it's Anne's first time here, how about we take a group photo?"

The suggestion hit right at the heart of the grandparents. They hadn't ever had a family photo with their granddaughter before!

Grandpa nodded enthusiastically, "Absolutely, it's a moment worth capturing."

Grandma chimed in, "Corley, make sure you take a good one. We’ll want to print it out and add it to the family album."

With a playful grin, Corley responded, "I’m not taking the picture. Let’s have the housekeeper do it."

"Oh right, silly me," Grandma chuckled. "I forgot you need to be in the photo too."

Corley called over the housekeeper. Roseanne, standing by Grandma's side, wrapped her arm around her with a warm smile. Corley stood next to her, and Grandpa took his place on the end.

"Ready?" the housekeeper asked.

Grandma nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes, we’re ready."

Click. The shutter snapped, capturing the moment. The grandparents looked content and gentle, Roseanne beamed softly, and Corley had a charming smile.

The housekeeper, just to be safe, snapped a few more shots. To their delight, every picture turned out great.

She handed the phone back to Corley, who promised, "Don't worry, I’ll definitely print them out."

Satisfied, Grandma nodded approvingly.

Corley reviewed the photos, nodding along with her. He made a mental note that maybe the housekeeper deserved a little raise for her photography skills.

He then captured a few shots of the food spread before finally sitting down to enjoy the meal.
