As the two were talking, Don came in through the side door, surprised. “Georgia, are you playing chess?”

Old Mr. Jarvis chuckled warmly. “Georgia’s known how to play chess since she was little. She even won prizes for it at school—she’s really talented!”

Don’s eyes widened in surprise and admiration as he sat down beside them. “I want to learn, too!”

Georgia glanced at him sideways. “Maybe you should try Go instead.”

Don looked puzzled. “Why?”

Georgia replied seriously, “Go is even more challenging—perfect for someone with your high IQ.”

Don broke into a happy grin. “Thanks for the compliment, Georgia!”

Old Mr. Jarvis couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

These past few days, Evelyn had been coming home very late. It was already ten o’clock when she finally walked in. She greeted Old Mr. Jarvis and Georgia, then asked with concern, “Where’s Old Mr. Quintin?”

“In the study,” Georgia replied.

Evelyn headed toward the small study off the living room. The door was half open, and before she could go in, she saw Old Mr. Quintin and Sylvia standing together at a large drafting table, painting.

Brushes of different sizes and a rainbow of colored inks were spread out in front of them. Every so often, Old Mr. Quintin would lean in to watch Sylvia’s brushwork, patiently giving her guidance. The pride and joy in his eyes were unmistakable, even from across the room.

Evelyn felt a sting behind her eyes, and her heart grew heavy. She didn’t go in; instead, she quietly turned away.

A while later, Georgia came in carrying a tray with a late-night snack. “It’s late. You two should get some rest.”

Old Mr. Quintin was visibly excited. “Our Nana is so talented—just like you!”

Georgia’s eyes shone with delight. “That’s why they say blood never lies.”
