Scott winced slightly from the pinch Heidi had given him but quickly composed himself.

After clearing his throat, he said, “What I mean is, our son is old enough now, and it’s only natural he’d start feeling things. After all, which young woman doesn’t yearn for romance, and which young man doesn’t feel affection?”

Her smile grew wider, practically glowing with approval “The administration at Bedford College was so unfair to her, but she kept her composure and managed to pull off such an impressive feat! If our son has an interest in her, I would have no objections at all.”
