Meanwhile, Neil was discussing the company with Thomas and Greta at the hotel when Tylerâs call
interrupted them.
Neil raised an eyebrow and answered the call. âTy? Is something wrong? Why are you calling me at
this
hour?â
Thomas and Greta exchanged joyful glances.
Sensing their curiosity, Neil put the call on speaker.
Tylerâs childlike yet calm voice came through. âUncle Neil, weâd like to visit Mommy.â
Neil hesitated, replying. âThe journey is quite far-
Liora interrupted, âBut we have Eira!
Neil was torn. âSo, youâre not asleep because of this? Your mother is alright nowâ¦â
âWhy hasnât she called us then?â Liora questioned.
Neil sighed, admitting, âShe hasnât woken up yet.â
âSo youâre keeping something from us, Uncle Neil! Liora said.
Neil was rendered speechless. âAlright. Come if you want. Iâll pick you up from the airport.â
âEira is booking our flight tickets right now,â Liora happily added.
âIâll handle it. Will the next available flight work?â Neil asked.
âYes! Thank you, Uncle Neil!â Liora exclaimed.
With a smile, Neil hung up the call and booked flight tickets for the children and Eira.
Emotionally, Greta looked at Neil and asked, âCan we meet Carolâs children?â
âOf course. We might need your help looking after them while theyâre here,â Neil replied.
Greta couldnât wait any longer. âAlright! We can take care of the children!â
Thomas chimed in, delighted, âOh, Nell, you shouldâve introduced us to them sooner.â
Neil shared, âI would have followed Carolineâs wishes if it werenât for this unexpected turn of events.â
Greta remarked, âYouâre quite like Uncle Tom in that regard, always prioritizing your younger sisterâs

Thomas consoled him, ââItâs been a long time since that incident. You should try to move forward.â
Neil looked at him and asked, âUncle Tom, can you tell us more about the events from those years in
detail?â
Thomas replied, âI will explain everything from beginning to end when itâs time to formally welcome
Caroline into the family.â
Greta frowned. âHowever, we know very little about it since weâve spent most of our time abroad.â
Neil nodded, feeling dejected.
On Sunday, Eira arrived at Staten City Airport with the two children.
Neil, along with Thomas and Greta, was there to pick them up.
As Eira walked out of the exit with the children, Neil waved and called out, âOver here!â
The two children immediately chirped, âUncle Neil!â
Eira approached Neil with a wide smile. âThank you for coming to pick us up. Neil!â
Neil smiled back and replied, âYouâre welcome.â
Noticing the two people standing with Neil, Liora tilted her head and asked, âWho are these people,
Uncle
Neil?â
Neil explained. âThese are your Granduncle Tom and Grandaunt Greta.â
âGranduncle Tom and Grandaunt Greta? Are they Mommy and your uncle and aunt?â Liora asked with
a
furrowed brow.
Tyler complimented her, âYouâve got a sharp mind!â
Then, he turned to Thomas and Greta and introduced himself, âHello, Granduncle Tom and Grandaunt
Greta. Iâm Tyler Shenton, the middle child.â
Liora chimed in. Iâm Liora Shenton, the youngest!â
Thomas and Greta were delighted.

Lioraâs smile faded as she replied, âAxel is very busy with school these days, so he couldnât come.â
