Chapter 523 Between Family Ties

• Ariana's POV:
• On Christmas Eve, most of the staff at the Jablonsky Mansion had been sent home by Stefan to celebrate with their families. Only a couple of them stayed behind—those with no particular commitments. Ms. Chapman was one of them.
• But it wasn't that she had no family. She simply couldn't bear to part with little Guinevere, claiming that she missed the child terribly if she didn't see her for even a day.
