Annoyed by my silence, she hissed under her breath, "Matteo, why aren't you speaking? I knew you couldn't be this generous, letting me and Laurent do the ceremony. I warn you, if you ruin this wedding, you'll regret it!"
I laughed, sharp and mocking. "As you wish."
I grabbed the mic and announced, "Today, we're not just toasting this happy couple. We're also celebrating their upcoming parenthood. Stella, congrats. You'll be a mom in eight months!"
