"Alright." Mr. Brodie was awam that the old geezer was ready to make tracks, so he respectfully accepted. His attitude, though, was as if he was ready to give someone the boot.
Serena didn't expect Phillip to do a 180 on her after he met Rosemary. She was beyond embarrassed.
Even though the old man asked Mr. Brodie to show her around, she was too mortified to stick around,her face burning up.
Rosemary, that country bumpkin, must be a regular troublemaker. How could she possibly have won Gramps over?!
What was her secret? How did she manage to get his approval in such a short time?
"Since Grandpa is tied up with stuff, I'll drop by another day" Serena stood up, leaving the gifts behind,
"Please, Mr. Brodie, pass these things to Gramps."
"The doc said he doesn't need any tonics, and these things won't be of any use to him." Mr. Brodie replied respectfully. "Miss Serena, please take them back and give them to your own parents"
