“Of course not.”

He nodded slowly. “Then I assume there is a reason you thought that maybe I was in a relationship?”

“I needed to be sure.”

He didn’t say anything. Instead, he looked at her as if tumbling her answer around in his head. “But like I said, I assume there is a reason you needed to know.”

“Yes.” However, she didn’t intend to go into any details.

“Well, rest assured there is not a Mrs. David Holloway out there anywhere. Nor is there any woman wearing my ring. Satisfied?”

“Yes.”
