[Edward is beyond surprises at this point - or so he tells himself. It's a mild surprise to see Claudia working alongside him and the others in the construction. Not that he is surprised by the fact that she is a woman doing men's labor. He has long learned the different strengths of women, but honestly, it is like seeing Caroline building a house. Claudia has that kind of air around her, a woman who has known a better life.
Then again, Caroline had proved that she could work beneath her, hadn't she? It was always Edward who had thought himself better.
He shakes himself out of the reverie before it overwhelmed him, catching Claudia watching him in time to hear her question.]
I spent a small fortune on the bloody thing. I best still have it. Why?
SOUNDS GOOD TO ME
