Pamela nodded and smiled. “Thank you. That’s very thoughtful of you. But why don’t you leave the pastries here first? I’ll have them when I come back. Sorry for not keeping you, but I have to attend to a family matter. But please do come again another day! I’ll cook lunch for you then.”

Sophia smiled demurely. “It’s okay, Grandma. There’s no need to feel bad about it. By the way, are you going out? Shall I give you a ride?”

“No, it’s fine. We won’t want to take up any more of your time, so we’ll ask the family driver to give us a ride. After all, that’s what we pay them to do.”
