Their laughter slowly faded into a comfortable silence before Sienna's expression softened.
As they continued talking, Hannah casually mentioned that she had been the one who had arranged every one of Skylar's birthday celebrations over the years. The revelation caught Sienna completely by surprise.
Sienna blinked several times before lowering her gaze, suddenly feeling guilty to know that.
All this time, she had assumed it was simply another responsibility shared among the household staff. She had never realized Hannah had lovingly planned every one of Skylar's birthdays herself.
This year, without knowing that, she had taken over the preparations because she wanted to do something special for her son.
"I'm really sorry, Hannah," Sienna said again, her voice filled with genuine regret. "If I had known, I never would have taken it away from you."
Hannah smiled gently and leaned closer to pat Sienna's hand with quiet affection.
