"Granny, why did you ask me to leave the room? What did you talk about with Sawyer?" Abigail asked.
"We talked about your mischievous antics when you were a child," lied Sophie while placing the jewelry box on the table. When she noticed Abigail roll her eyes, she smiled faintly. "Oh, dear, are you doubting me?" asked Granny Sophie playfully.
Abigail shook her head slowly, signaling she didn't believe it.
"Grandma, do you think I'm still a child or childish? I'm not both. Not anymore; I'm a full-grown woman now. I'm twenty-five!" She smiled as she watched her grandma laugh. "I could tell if you weren't telling me the truth."
Sophie laughed as she pinched Abigail's dainty, flawless nose before telling her, "I threatened Sawyer. If he makes you sad like Ryland did, I won't let him live in peace. I will hunt him down wherever he hides!"
