Linda clasped Emelie's hand and smiled kindly at her. "Yes. I think Emelie is a fine young woman, too." Emelie immediately pulled her hand away, shocking Linda.
Emelie then said calmly, "Mrs. Spencer, please don't misunderstand. Mr. Troy was just fooling around. We're no more than friends, so there's no way marriage would be involved."
