Summary

It was obvious. Nick wasn't coming back! They had argued over dinner; Nick walked off in a huff. Alethea tried not to panic when the check arrived, knowing she had nothing more than silver in her handbag.... Suddenly, the man she had seen staring at her was at her side, pretending to be a long-lost friend--paying the bill. Alethea appreciated his gesture, and the others that followed, but she loved Nick, and not even Dr. Sarre van Diederijk could take his place.
