Randy gave the comment some thought before he said, “Huh.”When he noticed the driver glancing back at them, he realized they needed to depart the hantour.He fished a coin from his pocket and handed it to the man.

“Shukran,” Diana said, following Randy out of the carriage.

The driver waved.

When they were free of the hantour and on their way to the ship, Diana entwined her arm with Randy’s.She glanced up at him.“So...will you say anything to Tom?”

Randy briefly chewed his lower lip.“Not directly,” he replied.He chuckled when he saw her crestfallen expression.“But fear not, I believe I have some skills when it comes to matchmaking,” he claimed.

Diana blinked but allowed a grin.“Should I be worried for your brother?”

“I’m more worried for Lady Helen,” he said in a quiet voice.“Are yousureyou want her stuck with my brother?”

“Shouldn’t I?”she asked in alarm.

He shook his head.“He deserves a good wife as much as anyone,” he replied.“But if he can’t abide her attentions toward a babe, I’m not sure he deserves her.”

Diana slapped his arm as she laughed.“Some day I’m going tell him what you said.”

“Some day I’m going to tellherwhat I said,” he replied.
