Getting married?

Carol was getting hitched?

There was a momentary pause on the other end of the line, then a sense of urgency crept into her voice.

"How long have you known Felix, and are you serious? Would Mr. Miller approve?"

be a misery.

So, when Carol started dating Felix, she kept it a secret from the Miller clan.

"Maja, I've got a bit on my plate right now, can't chat. I'll give you a ring later, okay? Bye, my dear."

Carol sounded breezy, not at all like someone with a problem.

After hanging up, Carol tilted her head back, gazing out at the sunset.

invitation, too.
