NovelEnglishBlair felt she didn’t have a say in this.
Hardly had a minute gone by before she got a message from Cecelia with
Keith’s number.
She hesitated whether to even call or not. What was she supposed to say to him?
After a moment of struggling, she decided to help Niles, and dialed the number.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKeith’s phone had been ringing for a while, but he was in no mood to answer it, so he just ignored it. The persistent sound annoyed him. He glanced at the screen. It was Blair. Why would she be calling? He saved her number on his phone while she was still in London, but he never called her.
Keith picked up his phone to answer it.
“Hello?
“Um… good evening, Grandpa Keith. I’m Blair.”
“Oh, Blair. It’s late. What’s up?” Keith pretended that he didn’t know it was Blair.
“Nothing. I just miss you and… um… want to check up on you,” Blair said, feeling nervous. She was now starting to sweat. This wasn’t going well.
Hearing his grandpa say Blair’s name, Niles, who had been whimpering, raised his voice and cried, “Blair, help! I’m dying here!”
He sounded miserable. Blair felt bad for him.
“Grandpa Keith, what’s going on over there?” she asked, feigning ignorance.
“Oh, nothing. Everything’s fine. Why are you still up? Don’t you have to be at work early?”
Angela’s Library
Keith changed the subject abruptly and gestured for Baldwin to stop.

As soon as his father stopped, Niles fled the study, holding his buttocks.
Watching him run, Keith could do nothing but stomp his foot angrily.
“I’m about ready for bed. How about you? I didn’t wake you up, did 1?”
Blair asked in a sweet voice.
It occurred to him that she might bechis granddaughter-in-Law one day, so Keith couldn’t help smiling.
“Of course not. I’m glad you called. I enjoy talking to you. Callwhenever you can, will you?”
“Sure. I’m going to bed now. I’ll visit you next tI‘m in your area,” Blair coaxed him gently, as if she was coaxing a child.
“I’d Like that. You and Wesley should cvisittogether,” Keith said.
