And bring your daughter along!” “Yeah, this could be a chance to combine it with your wedding for a double celebration,” | said.
“Haha! Chlo, thank you for the suggestion. Everything's in the works. We're having a grand wedding!” He was trying to provoke me.
| knew he was doing it on purpose. He felt invincible now, and taking a dig atwas easy.
“I'll be there! I'm curious to see what your son looks like.” There was no need to let him gloat.
After hanging up, | grabbed the invitation and smiled. | almost forgot about these two clowns. Matthew was too wrapped up in his own happiness, givinga peaceful month.
Carol letknow it was tto go.
| shook off my thoughts and asked, “Where did you make the reservation?” “A club over in Quail Creeks. | got a recommendation from Ms. Lauren!” Carol proudly told me.
