"Amelie, I heard you were behind this morning's breakfast," Katelyn said with a pleasant smile as she took her seat beside Dominick.
"I helped, but I can't take all the credit," Amelie replied modestly.
"Please, have a seat," Gabriel said, rising slightly to pull out a chair for her.
"My, my. Look at how much of a gentleman my brother has become," Casaio teased, watching the gesture with amusement.
Amelie smiled as she sat down. "Of course he is. He's always had it in him," she said, glancing affectionately at Gabriel, who took the seat beside her.
"Seems like the love between you two blossomed far sooner than anyone anticipated," Casaio added playfully just as the maids began placing plates before them.
Gabriel shot his brother a dry look. "Or we could just enjoy breakfast without the commentary," he suggested.
Amelie, however, gently countered, "I think conversations like these make breakfast better. It's nice to share moments like this. It brings us closer, doesn't it?"
