Her lips curved into a polite smile. “Uncle Clark. Did you need something?”

Clark returned her smile warmly. “Sharon, you haven’t met your grandparents yet, have you? When you have a moment, I’d like to take you to the McKinzie estate. They were overjoyed to learn they have another granddaughter. They haven’t stopped talking about you and are eager to meet you.”

Sharon’s tone remained courteous but distant. “Rick mentioned he misses them as well. I’ll plan to visit with my brothers when the time is right. If you’ll excuse me, Uncle Clark, Sebastian, I have other matters to attend to. We’ll talk again soon.” 1
