“When you saw me at the restaurant, didn’t you feel like coming up and claiming me as your husband?” Matthew asked.

Aurelia heard him, and her surprise was evident. “Claiming you?”

Have I misheard something?

“It seemed like we weren’t the focus earlier. The real crux of the matter revolved around Nancy and Mr. Hoffman.”
