When he was thinking about how to speak, Holden’s words of comfort came from the other end of the phone. “Ian, you did a great job this time, you’ve really grown up.

Aside from that acquisition, lan really couldn’t think of anything else he had done that would make grandpa so pleased, so he naturally continued:

“Grandpa, it’s my job, and I’ll keep pushing.”

But to Holden, this sentence meant something else.
