Kevin nodded. "Then, for now, you two should stay at here and keep her company."

Amara hesitated. She wanted to say that Grace wasn't particularly fond of her and might get upset if she stayed there. But the lady had passed, and it seemed unnecessary to bring it up. Besides, she would soon be busy with her film crew and wouldn't have much time at home anyway, so she nodded.
