Pouring herself a cup of tea, she flashed an innocent and kind smile, "Mr. Hanson's niece and nephew are quite good-looking, are they his direct relatives?" Xavier Flemmings said, "No, they're the kids of my dad's friend."

Carol realized, "Oh, then your families must be very close."

Norah Lamont chuckled, "Yes, Mr. Hanson is really good at taking care of people."
