Natalia brought the soup over. It was Mrs. Dottie’s special recipe. She’d busted it out because Natalia hadn’t been feeling too well. What with the cold and how busy Archie was, the soup was to warm them both up.

Natalia had already had some, so she just sat there keeping Archie company and watching him dig in. “With old man Kawn in such a state, I’m sure the Kawn family is getting messy!”

At that, Archie sneered.

“Forget messy, it’s a disgraceful sight.”

Natalia chuckled.

“There are a lot of Kawn family members. The second and first uncles aren’t born from the same mother. Add to that all the branch families, and there has to be plenty of sibling rivalries. Thankfully the old man was fine this time. He should be preparing for after his passing for the sake of the family’s survival, so it shouldn’t get too out of hand.”

Archie nodded. “I hope so.”

He paused, then thought of something and looked at Natalia.

“What?”

“Nothing.”

Archie seemed to find something funny. He chuckled, then said, “The Bissels sent someone over too. Know who it was?”

“Who?”

“Ontario Bissel.”

Natalia froze.

“Seems like the youngest of the Bissels isn’t too repulsed by Jessica. In fact, the two seem to be getting along just fine. If nothing goes wrong, the marriage might be set.”

Natalia floundered for a while, not sure what to say.

“Does Ontario… know about Jessica’s past?”

Archie nodded. “He knows. But according to him, everyone has a past. So he doesn’t mind. He’s ready to look to the future with Jessica, maybe even meaning to find true love.”

He’s still alive and still gets his say over what to do with the share, but who knows with whom those shares would end up when he’s gone. A fight will probably break out by that point.
