Feeling relieved

After they arrived at the penthouse, Caspar and Finland let Aleksis rest and didn't pester her with any questions. Caspar cooked his daughter's favorite food and she then went to sleep.

"I'm so relieved... Aleksis is fine..." Finland said, hugging Caspar after they closed Aleksis' door.

"Me too..." Caspar gently rubbed his wife's hair. The weight on his chest had been lifted and he felt the same relief. He grabbed Finland's hand and invited her to the kitchen. There, Jean was waiting for them with an open bottle of brandy.

"Want to drink?" he asked, lifting the bottle.

"Just champagne..." Caspar said as he walked to the refrigerator to pick up the oldest Dom Perignon he had. "This is worth celebrating."

"OK." Jean got up and took three sparkling wine glasses for them and Caspar poured each of them a full glass.

"To Aleksis!" Jean raised his glass, followed by Finland and Caspar.

"To Aleksis," both responded.
