Grandma May heard Dolly’s words. She waved at Dolly and said, “Come here, Dolly.”

Dolly walked over.

“Are the drumsticks ready to eat, Old Mrs. York?”

She thought Grandma May had called her over to eat the drumsticks.

Grandma May pulled Dolly over and hugged her. She smiled. “The drumsticks aren’t done yet. It’ll be ready soon.

“Why do you want to take over Sam’s job?”

Everyone in the manor knew Grandma May adored Dolly.

The Yorks had not had a daughter in their family for generations.
