"Grandfather." Patriarch Grayson smiled warmly. "Did the restoration expert deliver the vase yet?" As he spoke, his aged eyes suddenly brightened, focusing on something behind William. "William, who's that young lady behind you? Aren't you going to introduce her to your grandfather? Is she the reason you've been staying in Alderburg for so long?" William cleared his throat gently. "Grandfather, this is Miss Serena, the restoration expert who repaired your vase." At William's gesture, Finn lifted the phone slightly to focus on Serena's face. Upon seeing Serena, the elder's eyes twinkled with joy. "Serena, you're Xander Sullivan's daughter, aren't you?" Serena nodded. "You knew my father?" "Your father was a top-notch antique collector. Anyone in the antique world knew him. Our family arranged a marriage alliance with the Brooks family because of your father's influence, but when he passed away suddenly..." Serena's eyes dimmed slightly.
Noticing her reaction, William took the phone back. "Grandfather, Serena has already restored the vase. We haven't had the chance to see it yet. Shall we go back and have a look together?" "Sure." The three of them returned to the living room.
Finn opened the box Serena had brought, revealing the vase, which showed no traces of its previous damage. William's deep eyes flickered with admiration.
Even through the screen, the elder's eyes widened in surprise. "Incredible! It's truly restored! Serena, how did you manage this?" The elder wasn't just being polite; he was genuinely curious.

"Where's Serena?" Aaron called for Olivia.
"Miss Sullivan went out," Olivia replied.
"Why isn't she back yet?" Olivia couldn't provide an answer.
Aaron frowned. "Call the driver and have him bring Serena back." Olivia hesitated. "Miss Sullivan didn't take the family car; she used a taxi." Aaron's expression changed. "You can go now." Olivia retreated.
