Miles Hawthorne asked with a smile, "How’s your grandmother doing lately?"

"She’s recovering very well," Chloe Reed said. "I haven’t had a chance to thank you properly. Are you free tonight? Let me treat you to dinner."

"If you put it that way, then I just so happen to be free," Miles Hawthorne readily agreed. "Let’s have hot pot. I haven’t had it in a long time."
