She hadn’t been able to ask him about Victoria; there had been no chance to do so after he had denied her request for friendship—after he had saved them both from committing a reckless relationship blunder.

But she knew that the stoic expressions and the pretense of not seeing her had come to an end. He would at least greet her, as he did Susan—or so she hoped.
