Chapter 81

• I had thought it strange that my life was working out so easily when Noah and I had planned our parents meeting seven weeks ago.
• Me, a 32-year-old, no-name theater actress from a household that couldn’t even account as average, marrying the grandson of a millionaire. How could something like that even happen. Why was no one opposing this wedding? Unable to believe my luck, I felt like I was approaching the climax of the roller coaster before it tipped over the edge. I was terrified.
• Even though Noah’s mother had accepted our marriage from the start, I had always been afraid that she would seek me out privately and change her mind. I had expected her to throw me an envelope full of money, dump water over me, or slap me across the face to break up with her son. But, she did not.
