Simon Sterling and Claire Sullivan were really there to get their marriage certificate, and they arrived not long after Ethan Grant and Serena Sullivan.
The reconciliation between these two did not happen recently—it was during Serena's last visit.
Claire didn't come back with Serena; she chose to talk to Simon.
She had once been unable to get past her past, and truly hadn't considered any future with Simon!
Willing to give it a try, saying it was for Serena and Wyatt, but in reality, it was for herself.
This time, Simon came over, not entirely for Serena and Ethan's wedding, but mainly for his own matters.
Ethan mentioned there was a young man pursuing Claire.
Of course Simon knew about this!
It was precisely because he knew, he made the trip over, wanting to solidify his relationship with Claire.
He brought up the subject of getting their marriage certificate, and Claire refused.
A day later, Claire agreed.
