Victoria blinked, grinning mischievously. “Grandpa, if that’s how it is, you’re only allowed to talk about family off with ne later. No sneaking in anything else, okay?”

Calvin was caught off guard by her answer and burst out laughing. “You little rascal. I really can’t play nice with you can

“So, what’s up?” Victoria asked, even though she already had a pretty good idea what he was going to say she wanted in

some respect.

Calvin looked at Victoria, paused for a moment, and said slowly, “I wanted to ask, have you really decided no and his family come to your birthday party?”

Daisy, who had been slicing up fruit in the kitchen, walked out just in time to hear Calvin’s question. She stopped in her tracks.

Victoria nodded firmly, not a hint of hesitation. “Yeah, Grandpa, I’m sure about this. It’s my first birthday at home. first time I get to celebrate with Mom and Dad.

“I want it to be fun and happy. You want me to enjoy my first birthday back with the Binder family, right? So there’s no way I’m letting Darell and his crew mess it up for me.”

Hector jumped in right away, “Dad, you already know how I feel. After what happened with Daisy, I cut Darell off for good if he wasn’t my brother, I would’ve had him locked up ages ago.”

Since that whole mess, Hector couldn’t bring himself to call Darell his brother anymore.

Victoria spoke up again, “Helping Simon last time was the absolute last bit of kindness I had for their family

“Grandpa, you know where I stand. If you keep pushing me to accept Darell and his people, I’m seriously going to flip

Calvin’s face grew solemn. “I understand. Honestly, I knew what your answer would be from the start.” “Dinner’s ready, Dad. Since you’re here, join us for a meal,” Daisy said, setting the fruit platter down on the coffee

Calvin knew that if he kept pushing, he’d end up being unwelcome, so he nodded. “Alright.”

After dinner, Hector came out of his study with a digital guest list.

“Since you’re here, Dad, take a look at this. It’s the list of people we’re inviting to Victoria’s birthday party. Is there else you think should be invited to celebrate with her?” Hector asked.

Calvin took the list and looked it over. There were way fewer people than at the last welcome party. Most of the name were close family this time.

There were plenty of names he’d never heard before.

“The people coming with Stephan are Victoria’s relatives from her old village, her uncles and aunts. They !! be here to celebrate her birthday, too,” Hector explained to Calvin.

Then, he turned to Victoria and added, “Victoria, last time at your engagement party, we didn’t arrange for any up Stephan and Yorine from the village.

“This time, since there are more guests, I’ll make sure someone goes to bring them over.

“Sounds good” Victoria nodded, grinned, and praised him. “With my awesome dad in charge, I can totally relax

Hector blushed at her compliment. Having a daughter like this was pure bliss. A few words from her, and he felt like he was walking on air.
