Chapter Sixteen

Wendy smiled. “It’s all right. Truly. It is one of those things women like to know. Men are so thick when it comes to these things, but if any awkwardness can be avoided, I would like to know.” She said. 

And she could go straight to hell for lying, too. She’d just make sure Damon got there first for his role in this debacle.

“It’s all in the past. Rest assured.” Martha said. 

“Naturally,” Wendy said drily.

“Damon and Grace were engaged. It was a long engagement. The truth of the matter is, I’m just not sure how much of Damon's affections were engaged. Grace and Sam fell in love, and well, it’s obvious to anyone that those two were meant for each other. Damon didn’t take it well, though, and if I hadn’t begged him to come to the wedding, I have no doubt he wouldn’t be here.”

Wendy nodded, understanding now why he and Debbie didn't want to attend the wedding in the first place.
