Asher shook his head gently, turning off his wrist device, his eyes lingering on her, "I didn't want to interrupt your reunion with your grandson."

Grace let out a small laugh, her eyes shimmering with warmth, "That's silly. You could never be an interruption to anything in my life." She studied him for a moment before adding with a curious but appreciative gaze, "I was truly impressed, though. You had a Plan B in motion, didn't you? Who helped you from the inside?"
