Aleksis was the star of the party that night. Finland's office mates who saw her were very enthusiastic about hugging and teasing the little girl.
Finland felt very proud because her daughter was loved by everyone. They were constantly chatting and being playful with her, and were sad when Finland and Aleksis finally had to leave.
"Well, it's Aleksis' bedtime very soon... We have to go home, okay..." Finland said. Aleksis smiled sweetly and waved to everyone. She looked very angelic .
Aww... many women who didn't have children felt jealous because Finland had a really cute daughter and she could still work so well. They thought that she had a really strong family support.
Once out of the ballroom, Finland and Aleksis did not return to the mansion. They took the elevator to the top floor and a few minutes later they were in the penthouse where Lauriel stayed. The man was reading when they entered.
"Hey... oh my God... you girls look so beautiful in those historical outfits..." he exclaimed in a happy voice. He seemed truly impressed. "I want to take a photo of you two..."
He hurriedly took out his cellphone and photographed the mother and child.
"Uncle Rory... it's very crowded down there..." Aleksis commented. "I was almost asphyxiated because so many people hugged me..."
Finland laughed at her daughter's exaggeration and how she always spoke in a cute tone in front of Lauriel.
"Hush... you know that Mummy won't let you be asphyxiated from all those hugs," she said.
Aleksis just rolled her eyes, and quickly walked towards Lauriel and sat on his lap.
"What are you reading, Uncle? Yesterday you were reading to me the fairy tale book about Prince Siegfried the Dragon Slayer. We are not finished yet. You have to continue reading it for me..." she protested when she saw Lauriel reading a book of poetry.
"Of course, Princess..." Lauriel got up while carrying Aleksis, took a book from his room and sat back down. He then continued reading her stories about the prince from the German mythology, who was famous for being a dragon slayer.
Finland just looked at the scene with a smile spread on her face. She was very pleased with the arrangements they had now. She was happy that Lauriel still had a role in Aleksis' life because she could not bear to take Aleksis away from him after she and Caspar were reunited. So, Caspar's decision to invite Lauriel to live with them was, in her opinion, the best decision.
Suddenly, there were two knocks on the penthouse door and then the door opened. Finland turned and found Caspar entering the penthouse carrying a large box.
"Hey... I brought you a change of clothes," Caspar said, lifting the box in his hand with a big smile, "And... an early Christmas present, as well as a bonus for the best employee in town, who is also very talented as a translator..."
"Hey ..." Finland got up and received the box from Caspar, "Thank you."
She was suddenly rooted to her place after receiving the box. From the corner of her eye, she saw someone enter through the door behind Caspar.
"Hey... how are you?" Those distinctive cat eyes narrowed as the owner smiled broadly and then burst out laughing to see Finland standing transfixed like a mannequin. "Why are you so quiet?"
"Jean ...? Are you coming here?" Finland asked in surprise.
"I was invited, so I came. When I knew that Billie would be performing, I felt that I had to come too. Coincidentally I am on my way to Paris, so I might as well add a 24-hour transit in New York." Jean stepped forward and hugged Finland, even though the large box containing a dress was blocking them. "We never celebrated a Christmas party together."
"You're right..." said Finland. She then looked at Caspar with a grateful look, "I didn't know you invited Jean, thank you..."
"Ahaha... I remember that our last new year's party didn't end very well. So, I want to make up for it for everyone. So, there is you, me, Jean, and Billie Yves..." Caspar replied with a happy smile.
He was very glad because the surprise made Finland very happy. That was why today he deliberately did not go to the office and did not go with Finland to St. Laurent Hotel.
He wanted to surprise her with the presence of Jean and Billie Yves, two of his wife's favorite people.
"Billie?" Finland asked, not understanding.
"Hi, Finland... I'm here..." Billie Yves suddenly entered with a faint smile. She also embraced Finland, who was immediately moved to tears.
She. Really. Liked. Billie Yves.
Billie Yves' Songs. Were. Her. Friends. When. She. Was. Lonely.
"Oh, God... Billie Yves is here..." she whispered in disbelief. "Do you still remember me?"
"Of course I remember you. You're not someone who can easily be forgotten," Billie said kindly, "I can't believe you lived in San Francisco for 2.5 years and never visited me in LA."
"Oh... that, sorry... I was afraid you didn't remember me..." Finland confessed. Gosh, if she had known that her favorite singer still remembered her, of course she would try to contact Billie for a meet-up.
"Ahaha... it's fine." Billie shook her head and smiled, comforting Finland. "Come to the studio sometime."
"Of course..."
The atmosphere was very warm, and Finland felt like she was in the seventh heaven. All the people she loved were in the same place and in good health, and they were having a warm conversation.
