The Celebration in Full Swing

Cassidy stares at Adrian for what seems like a long time.

Overflowing with gratitude, she then smiles at him and pulls him in an embrace. He was a bit surprised by how she tugged him towards her out of nowhere. Nonetheless, he happily returned the hug. 

"Thank you. This is wonderful," she told him, grinning.

After expressing her thanks to her husband, she went for her nephews next. All three of them were ecstatic to embrace her back. While Damien and Joshua pulled away a moment later, Hugo continued to cling to her and refused to let go.

"But I missed Aunty! Can I hold onto her for a little bit longer?" he whined when his brothers attempted to scold him.

Cassidy smiles at this, flattered to see how much she means to these kids. She would've just carried Hugo if she could, but since she just got discharged from the hospital, she could only let him hold her hand in the meantime. 

"You can be my escort if you want, Hugo."
