Briena returned home after spending time with Ivan, where the Ford family was eagerly waiting for her.
"My dear daughter," Clara said warmly as Briena walked in.
With a triumphant smile, Briena hurried over to her mother, who pulled her into a hug. "I am so proud of you. From the moment you were born, I knew you were destined to make our family proud."
"Thank you, Mom," Briena replied, her voice filled with pride.
Her father, Jay, approached and embraced her in a warm, fatherly hug. "You truly are the pride of this family."
"Thank you, Dad."
Briena then looked toward her grandmother, Sephina, her expression softening apologetically. "I'm sorry, Grandma, for leaving without telling you, but…"
"As long as everything turned out well, that's what matters," Sephina said, patting her head gently. "I'm proud of you. You always justify my faith in you. I knew you were the true phoenix of this family, the one who would bring us pride and success."
"Thank you, Grandma."
