They went to the villa where Philip resided. The Coles moved abroad back in the sixties. Aside from Irving and Elias, barely anyone from the Cole Family would go back home. The moment Elspeth and Elias showed up, the crowd was shocked.

“Who is that woman? She’s with Philip’s most beloved grandson.”

“I can’t believe she gets to date someone who was on Sunholde’s famous science magazine’s cover page at such a young age.”

“He’s a genius. The finest of this generation.”
