Kapitel 43: Chapter 43

“Well, I had dinner with your mother the other night, and the subject of Theo’s wedding came up. She decided we had to shop for a wedding present.”

“I see.” I cleared my throat. “Do you want to tell me about it?”

Mark growled. “Do you have any idea how many places in the DC area sell Waterford crystal?”

“I can’t say that I do.”

“We hit just about every single one.”

“Really?”

“Yes, really.”

“Did you pick out anything, or do we need to go shopping again when I return home?”

“Yes. And no.”

“Mmm-hmm. So what are we giving them?” I asked.

“Theo likes to bake. Portia thought a crystal footed cake plate would be nice.”

“And for Matheson?”

“Two champagne flutes with their names and the date engraved on them.”

“Which did you choose?”

“Both of them.”

“Excellent solution.”

“I had a feeling you’d think so.”

“Are they Waterford?”

“Do you think Portia would shop for anything less?”

“Well, you know I’m good for my share.”
