Emily leaned closer, curiosity sparkling.
Emily:
"Then what about Aunt Amber?
When did she fall for Uncle Jonathan?" 😎
Joseph lifted a brow.
Joseph:
"Ahhh… that one?
Even I don't know.
She's impossible to read.
We can't understand a single thing she thinks…
but she understands every single emotion Jonathan bro feels." 😎
The kids nodded in awe.
Joseph:
"And don't underestimate my brother.
He's not just handsome—
he's ridiculously handsome, a total gentleman, and—"
Children:
"UNCLE! CONTINUE THE STORY!! 😤"
Joseph:
"Okay, okay! Fine!" 😅

📨 The Invitation
Days passed smoothly… until a letter arrived.
A wedding invitation.
Emily:
"Whose wedding?" 😯
Joseph:
"Rachel. Amber sis's younger sister."
That's when Amber finally revealed her full name.
Amber:
"My surname… is Williams."
Children:
"Ohhhh…!! 😮"
Joseph sighed and continued.
Joseph:
"But the moment she said it, our mother said,
'Absolutely not.'" 😎
Thomas squinted.
Thomas:
"Wait, uncle…
Why did your family even get an invitation from the Williams family?" 😶
Joseph shrugged.
Joseph:
"It's like this—
Mrs. Williams was my mother's only friend when they were young."
Emily:
"Then why did she stop talking to Grandma?" 😕
Joseph:
"When she married Mr. William.
After that, she cut ties with everyone.
That's why none of us attended Nattalie's wedding…
even though we were invited." 😎
Thomas frowned deeper.
Thomas:
"But Mr. William is horrible and arrogant.
Why would he send an invitation to Grandma this time?" 😕
Joseph exhaled slowly.
Joseph:
"Because…
Mrs. William has no one else.
She's an orphan.
And my mom was the only family she ever had."
The kids' faces softened.
Children:
"Ohh…😮"
Joseph:
"And this time…
the invitation came because of Amber.
So we went." 😎
