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.”

Moreover, when they were out, she had already gotten used to pretending she didn’t know him.
