“I know what you’re going to say. I’m late.”
Cassie stepped inside, brushing past Greg. “I’m sorry. I have a doozy of an excuse.”
The skirt of her yellow sundress swirled around her long legs; her silky blond hair swung from side to side. She looked perfect, ready to play the role of his hostess. Ready, that is, except for the baby in her arms.
“Did the caterers arrive on time?” she called over her shoulder.
“Cassie—”
“What about the decorations?”
“Cassie,” he said, more loudly this time. “You have a baby.”
“That’s right,” she said. “But don’t worry. Nothing is going to interfere with my hostessing duties—”
“Cassie,” he said, interrupting her again. “Whose baby is it?”
She bit her lip, looking uncertain. “Well, I suppose…she’s mine.”
Cassie? A mother? The thought sent a shiver down Greg’s spine. “Cassie…what have you gotten yourself into this time?”
