    Spotting Hannah and Lydia, he greeted them warmly.


    “You’ve arrived! Come in.

    Carrying bags, Hannah made her way into the house.

    “How is that any of my business?”


    As Lydia rinsed vegetables, she remarked earnestly, “You’ve heard the gossip, right? About the Glyn and Mitchell families merging through marriage, specifically Melina bing Bryson’s fiancée.
