Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2257

Estelle eyed Old Mr. Jarvis with concern. “I noticed you were coughing during our video call yesterday. Have you taken any medication?”

“It’s just a chill I caught. Dr. Green checked me out; it’s nothing serious,” Old Mr. Jarvis chuckled. “So, your friend’s wedding is over?”

“Yes, and your gift was very much appreciated. My friend sends his thanks through me,” Estelle replied with a smile.

“No need for formalities between us,” Old Mr. Jarvis laughed before turning to Jonathan. “You’re here early this year too, trying to keep Estelle company, I presume?”

Jonathan smiled warmly. “Not really. The end of the year is always packed with social obligations. Coming back early gives me a chance to enjoy some peace and quiet. So, it’s not just for Estelle; I’m benefiting from her company too.”

Old Mr. Jarvis’s smile grew deeper, nodding in approval. “Good, good!”

Gabriel and Jonathan were walking side by side when Gabriel suddenly said, “I’ve always wondered how you managed to win over Estelle, and now it seems I have my answer.”

Jonathan’s expression remained calm. “I’m just being honest.”

“I believe you!” Gabriel nodded.

Jonathan smirked. “How do you find staying at home?”

Gabriel replied, “Honestly, it’s boring. Each morning I wake up feeling the urge to return to Tripe.”

Jonathan spoke softly, “Grandpa and Dad have always wanted Ella to take over the Jarvis family business, but her heart’s not in it. The Jarvis family will need you eventually. The situation in Tripe is stable now, and both Ella and I hope you can come back.”

“I understand where Estelle is coming from,” Gabriel said.

Being astute individuals, Jonathan didn’t press further and followed into the house.

In the evening, the family gathered for a reunion dinner.

After dinner, Old Mr. Jarvis asked Estelle if there were any videos from her friend’s wedding to show him.

Estelle then showed Old Mr. Jarvis videos of Josiah’s wedding procession, the ceremony, and the fireworks and drone show that followed, all of which she found from group shares.

Old Mr. Jarvis watched with a beaming smile, thoroughly enjoying the youth and energy on display. “Youth is a wonderful thing.”
