"Where are you now?" Nathan Foster asked him in a deep voice.
"With Miss Sutton picking out gifts. Old Master Sutton's birthday is in a few days," South Grant replied naturally.
"Come back," Nathan's voice carried displeasure.
But South Grant, as if he didn't hear, said with some difficulty, "Can't do that. I promised to have dinner with Miss Sutton tonight. You go home first, eat something casually, and I'll return later."
At this moment, a voice from the other end of the line called out to South Grant, and he hurriedly said into the phone:
"That's it, then. Miss Rosalind is calling me. I'll go check, got to hang up now."
South Grant finished speaking and hung up the phone. Nathan Foster held the phone in a daze, looking at the ended call, taking a while to come to his senses.
Beside him, Ivan Keller watched and silently lit a candle for South Grant in his heart.
