Aaron had no interest in antiques; whenever she brought them up, he always seemed impatient.

William pocketed his phone. "I hope that wasn't too much trouble for you?"

"Not at all. Your grandfather has such insightful views on antiques. I learned so much, how could it be a bother?"

"That's good to hear." William gazed at Serena, his eyes twinkling with warmth. Serena felt a tad uncomfortable. "It's getting late. I should head back home." "Alright, I'll have Finn drive you."
