The sadness that arose when thinking about the babies and Madam Fulcher was somewhat diluted by his presence.

"No need." Julian saw her downcast expression brighten up, and a hint of delight flashed in his eyes.

He pointed to the bedside. "We have some right here, but these grapes still have seeds."

In other words, Diana had to peel each grape and remove the seeds individually.

Without glancing at her, Julian reclined on the hospital bed and said, "But my nurse does this kind of work. I want her to do whatever I ask."
