Suddenly, Effie caught sight of a familiar figure-Granger.

He was dressed simply in a crisp white shirt and black slacks, still every bit the gentle, refined man she remembered. He stood with a few classmates, speaking in low voices.

Their eyes met across the room.

Effie offered him a polite, reserved smile before looking away.

She didn't notice the way Granger's gaze lingered on her, deeper and more thoughtful than before.

He watched her for a few seconds, only turning away when she did. Then, with a subtle, almost imperceptible smile at the corner of his lips, he took a sip from his glass.

Sarah had noticed everything from the moment Effie walked in.
