At that moment, Ginger cautiously suggested, "Why don't we invite Grand-Aunt Patricia to join us for dinner?"

Mia concurred with a nod, "That's a thoughtful suggestion. It must get tiresome for her to eat at home all the time."

"Going out for dinner? Who's joining in?"

Timothy quickly confirmed, "Yes, I just escorted them from the hospital."
