A knock sounded at Fiona's door. "Let me call you back El"
She quickly ended her call with Ella and sat up.
"Come in."
A maid stepped inside. "Good morning, Miss Fiona. Breakfast is ready. Mrs. Anne asked me to call you."
"Thank you. I'll be down soon."
The maid nodded and left. Fiona quickly showered, brushed, tied her hair neatly, and put on comfortable clothes before heading downstairs.
The dining room was already lively. Anne sat at the head of the table with Gabriel beside her. Natasha sipped some juice quietly. Caleb scrolled through something on his phone. Leo swung his legs happily while eating pancakes.
"Good morning," Fiona greeted, sitting next to Leo.
"Good morning, dear," Anne said warmly. She gave Fiona a soft smile. "Nathan is still working upstairs. He woke up early."
"Oh." Fiona nodded.
They began eating. Anne kept the conversation warm, light, and gentle. Fiona smiled when needed but occasionally glanced at the staircase.
