Evangeline flipped through the documents, and her eyes widened at the sight of the lifetime ownership papers for a private island off the Mastorwell coast.

"Are you seriously giving me an island?"

Jack's voice was calm and steady as he said, "You know, we all have those days when we're just not feeling it, totally wiped out. I figured my awesome niece might need a chill spot for those times. I've got you covered on the island- food, clothes, a place to crash, and transportation. You have to check it out, okay?

Evangeline nodded eagerly. "Oh, absolutely!!

Holden jumped in. "Handing out houses and islands like candy, but Mastorwell is a million miles away. How's she supposed to get there? You guys missed a beat. But not me-check this out!"

Like magic, the ownership papers for a private jet fluttered into Evangeline's hands.

"The pilot is an old pal of mine, high-grade and completely safe! Evie, you're going to love it!"

"Uncle Holden, you're the best!"

Evangeline threw her arms around Holden, just as Aemon chimed in with a chuckle, You guys are going all out. I'm not even sure what to give now!"

Evangeline was quick to reassure him, "Having my uncles here for my birthday party is the best gift ever. Presents are cool, but you all are what makes me happy."

"You're such a sweetheart," said Aemon, "but if I didn't bring something special, it'd look like I don't adore you as much as they do, right?"

Aemon's look was more laid-back than the others, a step up from his usual street style but still chill. He gave a nod to a lady in red, who rolled out something huge. Evangeline's eyes lit up at the sight of its outline.

A motorcycle! Her dream ride was right there!

Aemon stayed back, just giving Evangeline a knowing glance that said-it all. "Go ahead and open it, see if it's to your liking."

Evangeline's hands quivered with barely contained excitement as she set aside the

presents from her earlier uncles on the table. She inhaled deeply, moved forward, and flung off the cloth that was hiding her surprise.

In that instant, Evangeline's breath caught in her throat.

It was a B120 Phantom! It was the motorcycle of her wildest dreams!

The bike's worth was not about its price tag. With only 100 in existence worldwide, Evangeline had been captivated by its sleek design and stellar performance. However, due to its rarity, it had eluded her grasp for years. This gift, unlike the lavish ones from her other uncles, struck a chord deep within Evangeline's heart.

"Uncle Aemon, I can't thank you enough!" Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.

He was a man of few words. His silence often made her think he was

unapproachable, and she felt nervous around him. However, he had just given her the gift she cherished most.

It was clear that Aemon's way of showing affection was not as outward as Holden's; it was profound and unspoken.

"As long as you're happy with it."

Aemon quietly stepped aside, letting the youngest brother, James, take his turn.

"People are handing out cars and houses like they're nothing. I wanted to give you something unique."

James handed her a long, cylindrical box.

"Take a look inside. I might not have their wealth or influence, but who needs that? It's just a little something to brighten your day."
