It was the first time Isabella saw a single person bring such joy to an entire family. It seems like Tabitha is a happy virus.
Everyone was in high spirits when they heard someone ask excitedly, "Is it true that Ms. Tabitha is returning?"
The Quirk family was known for their kind treatment toward their household staff. Thus, when a housekeeper suddenly interrupted the ongoing conversation, no one felt disturbed. Sarah, the first to respond, did so with a smile, saying, "Indeed." "Great, I need to prepare Ms. Tabitha's favorite dessert," said the housekeeper before hurrying off to do just that.
Isabella turned to Sarah, puzzled.
Sarah said, "Petra has been a part of the Quirk family for a long time. When she first joined us, she was responsible for looking after Hansel's family. She often cared for Tabitha, so she has a deep affection for her." With that topic over, everyone continued their conversation.
In the afternoon, the sound of a car arriving echoed from outside.
Everyone began to emerge from the building, and before long, they saw a car pulling in.
One of the car windows was open, and someone popped their head from it, looking around in every direction. Upon spotting a group of people standing on the side, the person immediately waved with excitement.
Her vibrant demeanor truly resembled a miniature sun, instantly winning one's affection with just a glance.
No sooner had the car come to a halt than Tabitha eagerly hopped out, rushing over instantly. The couple that stepped out with her could only look at her with a mix of helplessness and indulgence. All the while, they reminded her, "Don't run too fast." Tabitha dashed toward the center, where her male idol was standing next to the most beautiful woman.
"I finally got to see you, Isabella! I want an autograph, a picture with you, and..." When Tabitha lunged toward Isabella, it almost seemed as if she intended to embrace the latter.
However, Tabitha seemed to have a bit of wit about her Unsure if Isabella would accept her enthusiasm, she switched tactics at the last moment, opting to grab Isabella's hand instead of hugging her.
Holding Isabella's hand, Tabitha kept swinging it back and forth, acting coquettishly to the point where Isabella could hardly bear it.
In reality, the only ones younger than Isabella at home were Janice and Rosalie. Although they were close to Isabella, they were both more reserved. As such, that was the first time Isabella had encountered such enthusiasm.
"All right, all right, I'll do all that. I'm really happy to see you, Tabitha," Isabella said with a smile.

The others were thrilled to see Tabitha, too, and reminded her not to focus solely on Isabella but to greet
everyone.
Immediately, Tabitha courteously greeted everyone in turn.
Upon seeing Alexander, she couldn't help but feel disheartened. "Ah, you've gotten even more handsome, Alexander. It's going to be even harder for me to find boyfriend now."
Alexander maintained his indifferent expression, but the others couldn't help but laugh. They teased Tabitha, saying that by comparing her future boyfriend to Alexander, she was just setting herself up for disappointment. They jokingly warned her to be careful, or she might end up not getting married.
Hansel and Astrid happened to walk over.
Tabitha retorted, "Well, I'm going to rely on my parents for living expenses and remain a pampered young lady forever."
Hansel tapped Tabitha's head lightly and said sarcastically, "You sure are promising."
Astrid chuckled, saying, "Sure, I'll take care of you for the rest of your life."
Hansel's family was also busily greeting the rest of the family. The atmosphere was filled with joy and harmony. Meanwhile, Isabella confirmed that there were no issues with Hansel's family.
At that moment, the smiles on the faces of David's family became even more genuine.
Sounds of people could be heard from the main building as well, so everyone was preparing to head over there together.
Suddenly, Petra shouted and rushed straight toward Tabitha. "Ms. Tabitha, you're back! Oh my, let me take a good look at you. You've changed so much in just a year, growing taller and even more beautiful."
To be honest, it was somewhat inappropriate for her to interject at that moment.
However, everyone was easygoing, so no one took it to heart.
Tabitha also cheerfully greeted Petra, and Hansel and Astrid did the same. However, Petra's attitude toward the couple was clearly perfunctory, while her affection for Tabitha was undeniable, almost to the point of being overwhelming. Her eyes were even filled with tears. It was, one might say, a bit dramatic.
Isabella couldn't resist joking. "It's like she's treating Tabitha as her own daughter."
"Perhaps it's because Tabitha is simply too charming"
"Petra did watch her grow up, after all"
It seemed like Hansel's family was accustomed to such situations, so they didn't find it awkward. It was only when others started to feel uncomfortable that they reminded Hansel's family the elders were waiting Fri, Reading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind.
