Hazel seemed happy, which was a relief. If she was stuck in an unhealthy relationship, she probably wouldn't seem so at ease talking about her husband.
John figured he may as well ask her some more questions while she was in a good mood. "What does he do for a living?"
"Oh, he's a real estate developer. He works in Salt Lake because the market there is better than in Park City," she said with a shrug.
The time had finally come to cut the cake and Hazel was digging in with gusto whenever it wasn't her turn to talk. He wouldn't have guessed such a tiny person could have such a big appetite.
It occurred to John that he hadn't managed to catch her husband's name. Nathan hadn't bothered to tell him what it was, simply that she married a guy who lived out of state and moved to be with him.
"What's his name?"
"Will," Hazel said after swallowing another bite of cake.
Eva finally managed to wriggle free of her mother's grasp and rejoined them for the second time with a slice of cake.
