Finally coming to her senses, Estelle shot him a glance before turning to Magdalen on the phone, “Are you going to be tied up today?”

“Not at all, I’m at the Langston’s, completely free. Are you guys heading over to see Grandpa? I’d love to join,” Magdalen said.

It dawned on Estelle that she had indeed planned to visit her grandfather, and it was already ten o’clock.

She raked her fingers through her tousled hair, “You go ahead, we’ll meet at my mentor’s place!”

“Alright, see you in a bit!” Magdalen’s sultry voice trailed off as she blew Estelle a kiss before hanging up.

Jonathan pulled the phone away and leaned in to plant delicate kisses on her chin.

Estelle squirmed, “I need to brush my teeth, and we really should get going. If we don’t make it to my mentor’s by noon, Grandpa’s going to have a fit.”

“No worries, he’ll scold me, not you!” Jonathan loved her sleepy and languid look in the morning. After a few more moments of kissing, he finally got up and took her with him for a morning shower.

Emerging from the bathroom, Jonathan helped dry her hair and picked out clothes for her; another half hour went by.

He had ordered breakfast ahead of time, and they quickly ate before driving to Old Mr. Quintin’s place.
