After dinner, the family sat in the living room for a while before returning to their rooms.
William Lane had some matters to attend to, so he went to the study room.
An hour later, Amelia Smith came to knock on the door. She knocked three times, opened the door, and poked her head in.
William looked up, and after seeing her, he smiled first: "Not asleep yet?"
"Can I come in?" Amelia Smith asked.
"Come here," William said.
Amelia Smith came in, closed the door gently, then walked to the desk and sat down across from William, "You're not done yet?"
"Almost," William responded, "Anything up?"
"Just a little thing." Amelia Smith clutched the bank card in her hand.
"Hmm?"
