IMO, if it was a medallion upgrade that took your seat then the medallion should get moved back to their regular C seat and put you and your wife back in your original C+ seats. Especially if you paid for the seat.
Seat assignments by definition are first come first served. You should get your C+ seat back.
Maybe in an ideal world, but most of us have faced situations where we lost seat assignments but DL staff claim that they cannot move those who took our seats.
