NovelEnglishLinda had reserved a private room at the 9th Mansion well in advance, and the group drove over, their spirits lifted by the festive
atmosphere that enveloped J City. The streets were ablaze with twinkling lights, painting the night in vibrant colors and filling the
air with a palpable sense of joy, even from within the confines of their car.
As Sylvia gazed out at the kaleidoscope of lights, her thoughts inevitably drifted to him.

The holidays, it seemed, were the most he was willing to offer.
Looking up at the night sky, she sent a silent prayer his way, hoping against hope that he was well.
Upon arriving at the 9th Mansion and making their way to the sixth floor, Sylvia was ushered ahead. The moment the doors swung

Sylvia's own elegance under the soft glow of the room's lighting.
"Happy holidays!" he said, offering her the bouquet.

Linda laughed, "I'll confess, it was Eugene who contacted me. He suggested we all spend the holiday together, with him arranging
the decorations while we were responsible for bringing you here."
Eugene's smile was gentle, "Please, don't be upset. It was my idea to rally everyone. If you're angry, direct it at me."
