“As it should be.”

After the housekeeper took away the coffee, Eric took off his suit and draped it over the back of the chair, then sat down in front of Eileen.

“You’re here right on time. Have you had your meal?”

Eric replied, “Not yet. I just brought Vera back, and I thought I’d stop by for dinner at home.”
