Aubrey resisted the urge to plant his forehead in his palms. “If I may be so bold as to interrupt, I believe I’ve already held this conversation with Sir Lindsey’s friends.”
“Have you?” said Miss Althorp coolly. “And what sort of conversation was it?”
“The sort where I’m told to bring no harm to Sir Lindsey, lest greater harm fall on my head.”
Miss Althorp caught a fluttering laugh in her delicate fingers. In response to Aubrey’s bewildered expression, she replied, “That wasn’t the conversation I had in mind. I intended to congratulate you on the happiness you’ve brought Lindsey, and to express my hope that you’ll continue to make him just as happy in the future.”
Aubrey thought it was rather the same talk dressed up in different clothes, but kept that thought to himself.
