Right up to the doorstep of the Jarvis residence, Magdalen chuckled, "Here we are, let's hop out!"
Sylvia glanced through the car window at the grand, old-fashioned courtyard, pausing for a moment before grabbing the car door to step out.
At the entrance, Old Wade was already waiting, his face breaking into a smile as he approached, "Miss Magdalen has arrived!"
Magdalen stepped forward, "Old Mr. Wade, you shouldn't have bothered to come out yourself, especially in this chilly weather. Let's head inside."
Old Wade replied with a laugh, "Family deserves a proper welcome, it's tradition."
Magdalen, touched, turned back to Sylvia, "Let's go inside, we've arrived just in time for lunch!"
Sylvia, without asking anything, nodded slightly and walked forward.
The Jarvis residence was well-known throughout C City, and even folks from J City were aware of it. As Sylvia and Magdalen made their way through the colonnade towards the main hall, admiring the meticulously arranged, vintage charm of the courtyard, Sylvia's fingers curled slightly.
Before even entering, Magdalen called out loudly, "Grandpa, I'm here!"
In the main hall, Old Mr. Jarvis was busy writing, while Estelle was helping him organize the books on the shelf. Both stopped at the sound of her voice, with Old Mr. Jarvis commenting, "We hear her before we see her, always timing her visits perfectly with mealtime."
No sooner had he finished speaking, Magdalen entered the room.
"Grandpa!" Dressed brightly, Magdalen's presence instantly added a splash of color to the room's rustic charm.
Estelle's gaze, however, quickly shifted to Sylvia standing behind Magdalen, her lips curving into a faint smile.
By this point, Sylvia wasn't surprised to see Estelle.
Magdalen had kept her client's information a secret, and heading straight to this place upon reaching C City, it was hard to imagine finding a second residence like this one in C City.
"Very well, very well!" Old Mr. Jarvis laughed affectionately, looking up at the girl behind his granddaughter, his expression turning to one of faint recognition. It felt as if he had seen her before, but perhaps due to his age, he couldn't quite place where.
"Grandpa, I've brought a friend over," Magdalen said, holding Sylvia's hand. "I'll let her introduce herself."
"Ugh, you're no fun!" Magdalen playfully hit Estelle, whispering in her ear, "I've brought the person, now it's all on you!"
Estelle raised an eyebrow, "Alright, your job here is done!"
Magdalen, taken aback, joked, "What, no hearty meal before sending me off? Shouldn't we at least eat before I go?"
Estelle couldn't help but chuckle.
Meanwhile, Old Mr. Jarvis had the servants bring in some snacks, looking warmly at Sylvia, he inquired, "Young lady, are you from J City?"
Sylvia smiled gently, "No, I moved there three years ago."
Old Mr. Jarvis, recalling what Gabriel had mentioned about the two knowing each other for quite some time, found himself more curious about how such a refined young lady ended up in a place like Tripe.
He became even more intrigued, "What about your parents?"
