Alistair didn't understand why Rebecca had kept such a major secret from her parents, but he no longer cared. Now that the truth was out, he felt an overwhelming sense of relief.

"We're husband and wife. Family. You don't need to say thank you," she said naturally.

Alistair was once again overwhelmed.
