George found himself holding onto nothing but air.

After retracting her hand, Isabelle glanced briefly at his hand, remarking to herself. Why is his hand so hot?

“The Harris family? The younger one or the older one? Don’t tell me it’s the older one. Mr. George is such a distinguished figure. Could he really take an interest?”

“Probably just the family worrying as they age. There’s no way someone like him would take a liking to a spoiled and unruly young lady like her.”

It seems like the Sullivans might be on the decline in this generation.”
