"Miss Lily, you just stay at home and wait for your great-grandfather to come back. He'll treat you to a welcome feast. When the time comes, you should help out and invite your mother over too. But keep your father out of it; the lad speaks too little, too dull; I don't like it."
Lily, "..."
"Alright, there's some turbulence here, so I'm going to hang up now. Miss Lily, remember, you must wait at home for your great-grandfather!"
After Mr. Scott finished instructing, the call finally disconnected.
Hearing the dial tone from the other end of the phone, Lily let out a sigh of relief.
Regarding this great-grandfather she had never met, Lily felt somewhat at a loss for words.
Especially concerning her identity, which had been mistaken, she wasn't sure whether to correct it for the old man or just let it be and continue with the error.
After all, she was completely unwilling to admit that she was Mason Scott's granddaughter.
Sigh...
