Holly Winslow linked her arm through Brooke Jarvis's and smiled sweetly. "You're blessed too, Grandpa Langdon. The last time I saw Sister Anna, she came back with so many gifts."
At the mention of his daughter, the security guard broke into a genuine smile, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes deepening. "We're all blessed. We're all blessed."
