With that, she turned to leave, yet Brian lunged forward and stopped Grace. “Wait! You’re not disturbing us, and there’s no need to be in such a hurry to avoid me.”
After a pause, Brian said, “You must be here to see Dr. Russell about your hands. How have they been these years? Are they alright? Do they still ache?”
