Felicia brought Anne back to West Hill Residence.
They stepped into the living room, just as Colton was finishing a phone call. He glanced over, catching their arrival.
“Felicia’s home,” he said into the phone.
Darin’s voice echoed back, low and casual. “Alright, Dad, talk later.”
“Okay.” Colton hung up and turned, his face softening as Anne called out, “Grandpa Colton!”
He put his phone down, opening his arms. “Anne, you’re here. Come give me a hug.”
Anne darted into his embrace, making him laugh out loud. Happiness lit up his whole face.
Felicia walked over, curiosity in her voice. “Who were you talking to, Dad?”
Colton smiled. “Just a friend.”
She didn’t press for details. Instead, her gaze drifted to the coffee table, where several gift boxes sat. It’s a collection of expensive-looking presents, the kind you didn’t see every day, and definitely not from around here.
She raised a brow. “Who sent these?”
Colton hesitated for a second, then explained. “That same friend I was just on the phone with. He’s living overseas now, sent these for the holiday.”
Felicia knew her father had friends, sure, but holiday gifts like these were rare. And these weren’t just any gifts—they were clearly chosen with care, each box different from the next, nothing generic about them.
Colton caught her puzzled look and added, “I helped him out once, years ago. His business picked up this year, so he wanted to say thank you. He’s thoughtful, someone worth keeping in touch with. Look, this one’s for you.”
He handed her a box. “Do you like this one?”
Felicia accepted it, opening the lid. Inside was a women’s watch—red leather strap, tiny diamonds sparkling around the face. Definitely a gift someone put real thought into.
She recognized the brand right away. Not flashy, but elegant, the kind of affordable luxury she wore herself. She had a few pieces from this line already.
Nice coincidence, she thought.
Anne leaned in, eyes wide. “Wow, Mommy, it’s so pretty!”
