I can understand how this misunderstanding took place. I would say in fact that most reasonable people would conclude that it was in fact being offered up. Who sits way at the end of the driveway and looks at their house ? Me, watching the pets.
So if this is your contractor, or you are the contractor, the reappearance of said chair, would be a most pleasant development.
I hope that they return it. My neighbor left a rake near the street in front of his house. And like magic it disappeared.
