The village rumors that had once buzzed with skepticism and doubt dissipated
into thin air.
Sergio’s exceptional etiquette and graciousness were evident in every aspect.
There were thoughtful gifts for Marnie’s family in each car, including wine,
personalized gift boxes, and carefully selected items for Marnie’s siblings.
The drivers scurried back and forth, shuttling the generous offerings into Jamal’s
house.
Observing this bustling activity, the villagers exchanged hushed sentiments and
were awestruck.
Adding to the entourage, several remote relatives of the Blakely family
accompanied Sergio. Though not as influential as the Blakely family itself, each
member carried a weight of affluence that Jamal dared not underestimate.
Jamal, eager to showcase his newfound status as the future father-in-law of
Sergio, purposefully lingered behind, seemingly unaffected by the commotion
around him.
However, as he sat in the living room, he couldn't shake the anticipation that
overwhelmed him. His knee shook nervously, and he gripped the armrest,
attempting to compose himself.
When Sergio and his entourage entered, Jamal put on a flattering smile. He
stood up and approached them. “Please, come in.”
His arrogance around the villagers sharply contrasted with his humble demeanor
in front of Sergio. Recalling his performance, Jamal harbored regret.
Jamal invited several of his close relatives to entertain Sergio and his relatives.

As introductions ensued and the gathering settled down, the conversation
inevitably turned to Wendell. Relatives delicately shared that Wendell was
battling kidney failure, recuperating, and unable to join the festivities.
Marnie chose not to inform Shirley and Wendell about their trip back.
Otherwise, Wendell would have attended had he known.
Sergio, upon learning of Wendell's condition, expressed genuine concern,
“Kidney failure is a significant health issue. Marnie, why didn’t you tell me? I
should have visited him earlier. Lynch from Healthwell Hospital is a friend of my
grandfather. If one of your family members is in trouble, I can manage to lend a
helping hand.”
Sergio’s compassionate words earned him unspoken praise from those present.
Whether it was a genuine offer of help or a diplomatic gesture, he navigated the
situation with grace, demonstrating respect for Marnie’s family without a hint of
condescension.
The attendees touched by Sergio’s compassion found solace in the prospect of
his willingness to lend a helping hand in times of need.
Marnie was in a difficult position, explaining, “Wendell has already undergone a
kidney transplant operation, and he’s currently recuperating. I just want to avoid
disturbing him during his delicate phase.”
