Abigail knew Cornelia was asking out of concern, she might not even bother if it was someone else.
Since they were both there today, Abigail spilled the beans about her boyfriend, "He's a Rosenberg guy, lives in Ashbourne Valley. He's an only child, and his parents run a small grocery store that's doing pretty well. They have two houses in Ashbourne Valley, one for his folks, and the other's his wedding house. He's just like us, went to Riverton University and stayed on to work in Riverton after graduation. He's working at SwiftTech now."
SwiftTech is a budding tech company in Riverton that's been growing rapidly over the past few years. Apparently, the perks are great, and if you stick around for over ten years, you even get a share of the profits. But, even if the company's great, the quality of an employee can't be reflected through work alone.
Cornelia asked again, "What does he do there?"
Abigail had to think, "He mentioned it to me, but I can't recall. Something about the marketing department, or some other department. I'm not sure about the specifics."
Cornelia lightly tapped her forehead, "You're about to get hitched, and you don't even know these things. Are you sure you're okay with handing yourself over to him?"
Abigail pouted, "Look who's talking! You and Jeremy went straight to get your marriage license after your first meeting. Did you even think about these things?"
Cornelia replied, "It's not the same with Jeremy and me."
Abigail asked, "What's different?"
Cornelia said, "Jeremy's the grandson of my grandma's friend. I may not know Jeremy well, but my grandma knows him through his grandma."
Abigail said, "You make your marriage sound like it's arranged."
Cornelia was speechless.
"Enough chit-chat, we still have to go to the studio," Zack interrupted them, then said, "Those gifts were bought by Abigail and me. Give them to your grandma and send her our regards. We'll visit her when we have time."
