“Certainly! Jerome is both capable and devoted. Mrs. Miller Senior is certainly fortunate

to have him!”

Jerome maintained a faint smile as he listened to the praises.

He glanced at Mikayla briefly and replied, “Aunts, you’re too kind. But I don’t get as much time as I’d like to spend with Grandma. Kay usually takes care of that.”
