Sydney left the place with Bonnie and waited for the latter's chauffeur to bring the car around. After glancing at Bonnie several times, she asked, "Do you want to return with me?" "That's okay," Bonnie said, "Grandpa gota ride back to the villa. Also, isn't your house far from his? It'll be troublesfor you to givea ride back.” Sydney realized how thoughtful Bonnie was and could not help but like her even more. The former said, "Okay, then. It's pretty late now, so you should textwhen you're back at the villa to letknow you're safe." Bonnie responded, "You got it." When Sydney got home, she saw Flynn and Gunnar chatting on the couch. Flynn caught a glimpse of his mother and thought of something before asking, "Did Grandpa ask you to bring Bonnie along for the tea party? Did you two bicker the whole time?" She pursed her lips and tightened her grip on the sandalwood box. She sighed helplessly as a trace of guilt arose in her chest as she recalled everything she had done to Bonnie and how gracious the latter had been at the tea party.

'I'm her aunt, yet I can't deal with things as well as she does.' Gunnar noticed his wife's expression and thought she had bickered with Bonnie. He tried to comfort Sydney, saying, "That's Bonnie for you. She's stubborn, shameful, and doesn't respect her elders.
"Don't take her words and actions to heart. Whatever nasty things she said about you don't matter. We'll teach her a lesson when we have a chance." Sydney's heart dropped as she glared at her husband. "What are you talking about, honey? Bonnie's our in -law, but you're talking about teaching her a lesson? Are you sure you're her uncle?" Gunnar was stunned as he looked at his wife. He thought he had misheard her. "H-Honey, are you defending Bonnie?!" 'Wait, Sydney has always agreed withwhenever I speak poorly of Bonnie, but she's defending her now? I wonder what happened between them at the tea party.' Even Flynn looked at his mother strangely.

'I had always hoped Mom could get along with Bonnie. Then, I wouldn't have to keep getting between them. Still, Mom has changed too abruptly, too soon. Something's wrong here.' "We're family. Of course, I'll defend Bonnie. Why do you two look so shocked?" Sydney noticed her husband and son's inquisitive gazes before looking away uneasily.
Meanwhile, Gunnar wondered what made his wife change so drastically. He tried to guess, but nothing cto mind, so he decided to drop the matter. Instead, he gazed at the sandalwood box and asked, "Did you get that at the tea party auction? It looks heavy and aged. Open it, and show us what you bought."

I've seen something so exquisite. Just look at its luster! No ordinary diamonds can compare to those" Flynn leaned in to look, too. "The auction must've saved the best for last.
