Jessica sat by the window of the Stirling Mansion, leisurely having breakfast with her grandson.
She bit into a small pancake, smiling affectionately. "Kane, you are more skilled than your father. These pancakes are delicious."
Kane's lips curled up into a beautiful smile. "The student surpasses the master, right?"
Leopold came over, patting his son's head. "Your tutor is here. It's time for your lessons in the study."
"Alright." Kane finished his glass of milk and got up to leave.
Leopold sat on the sofa opposite Jessica and poured himself a coffee. "Mom, how long has it been since you last visited your maiden home? Do you miss Grandma and your brothers?"
Jessica sipped her tea and said slowly, "Your grandmother's ninetieth birthday is coming. It is time to visit."
"I'll go with you this time," Leopold said casually, "I still haven't met all of your family. I've only met a few of your brothers but never your sister. She didn’t come for your sixtieth birthday. Why?”
The smile on Jessica's face slightly froze. "She's married off and is no longer part of the Heninger family anymore. Whether she comes or not doesn’t matter."
Leopold took a sip of his coffee, leisurely saying, "She married late, didn’t she? I heard she got married after I was born."
Jessica gave him a deep look, her eyes slightly darkening. "Why the sudden interest in her?"
Leopold refilled her cup of tea. "Mom, is there something you haven't told me about my aunt?"
Jessica's shoulders twitched slightly. "Have you discovered something?"
