Estelle popped the treat into her mouth and her eyes lit up, "It's sweet!"
"Oh?" Old Mr. Jarvis looked over in surprise, "You found one of the sugar pockets I hid so quickly. What does it taste like?"
"Just like sugar!" Estelle beamed, thoroughly satisfied.
After a while, Estelle found another sweet surprise in her meal and looked at Jonathan in astonishment, "How do you always manage to pick the sweet ones?"
Jonathan gently tucked a stray hair behind her ear, his gaze filled with affection, "Guess!"
"I won't guess, just tell me."
As Jonathan served her more food, he whispered, "I saw the marks grandpa made!"
Estelle's cheeks puffed out, and her eyes widened in an instant.
Soon, Gabriel served Sylvia a piece of ravioli that had a coin hidden inside, while Old Mr. Jarvis ended up with the equivalent of what was tofu in their original game.
"What does the tofu signify?" Old Mr. Jarvis inquired.
Sylvia chuckled, "It symbolizes good luck and happiness for the coming year."
Old Mr. Jarvis laughed heartily, "I like that. Estelle enjoys sweetness in life, Sylvia's business booms, and I'm all about good fortune."
While everyone laughed, Estelle seized the moment to whisper to Jonathan, "Did you and your brother plan this, marking the sweets?"
Jonathan's handsome face broke into a smile, "As long as you're happy, nothing else matters!"
Estelle raised an eyebrow and continued enjoying her ravioli.

After dinner, the family retreated to the living room to watch TV, with Old Mr. Jarvis seating himself in the center. Estelle and Jonathan settled beside the elder, while Sylvia and Gabriel took their places on the other side. The coffee table was adorned with sweet soup and assorted fruits and snacks, creating a cozy atmosphere as the lively TV program played. The room buzzed with laughter and chatter, making the New Year's Eve feel warm and joyful.
