CHAPTER 90: Unusual Family Breakfast

Lauretta began her morning with her work routine in her room amidst Dalia's consistent interruption with messages and calls. She tried as much to tolerate Dalia for work's sake. As she steps out for breakfast, she notices Brandon's absence, realizing he must be at his final rehearsal for his next concert. Joining her father, Gabriel, and brother, Stanley, at the breakfast table, Lauretta attempts to enjoy a peaceful meal with her family. However, she is repeatedly interrupted by business calls aside from Dalia's. '' Good morning, Dad, Stanley." As she kissed him on the cheek, she adjusted her seat beside her father. As she sat, a call came in, and she excused herself to take the call. Gabriel, with a hint of frustration, couldn't help but comment on Lauretta's dedication to her job, longing for the times when they could share a meal without work intruding. "Can you please take a break from work, especially at this hour?" Gabriel's voice carried a mix of concern and disappointment.
