Helanie:
After Norman told them he married me, everyone just went silent. My mother cried on her knees while Lord McQuoid took care of her. Darcy had no idea who to be angry at or who to be jealous of. Emma and Charlotte looked deeply upset as well. I just sat in my seat with the brothers surrounding me.
Kaye had filled us a glass of wine, and I accepted one because I needed something to keep me calm.
"Let me order you some pizza," Norman whispered in the loudest voice, and his offer was followed by Darcy scoffing and finally breaking the silence.
"She is not a child. Why do you have to baby her?" she screamed from her couch, her fists clenched.
"Neither are you, Mom, so calm down," Norman muttered, stepping up and breaking the protective circle they had formed around me.
"You've lost your mind! After years of hard work and achieving so much, you went out and chose her?" she wrinkled her nose hard, pretending to gag at the thought of me and her son being together.
