A NEW FAMILY 15

Then, Mr. Morris gave the children the middle wing, while Ken and Dora occupied the wing at the end of the floor. He looked at the youngsters and noticed that they were happy. The truth was that they did not want to be far away from him, and he was aware of it. Then he asked.

"Are you okay with this?"

Leon, who had been quiet, said.

"Yes. But we can visit the left and right wings any time we wish."

They all laughed. Mr. Morris, who would want the Manor to be lively, replied to his question with glee.

"Leon, you are free to visit any wing. Did you get me?"

"I got you, Mr. Morris."

"Dinner will be ready in two hours time. We will all gather at the dining table on the first floor. Take time to settle down and rest. Welcome to Toronto"

Mr. Morris announced before he left.

"Thank you, father."
