Ella had decided that she needed a break. Last week she had gone to Spain with Serena and Poppy. When it was time for them to come back Ella still needed more time so she stayed with Gabriel.
She was now back in New York and the men just brought her luggage in.
"The prodigal daughter returns. How was Spain?" Chuck asked.

"So there was nude sunbathing."
"Is my mom around?" Ella asked.
"I haven't seen her, but I have been occupied. Last night's entertainment." Chuck said as a girl walked past.
