Chapter 34
"What do you think about your new marriage?"
-Were you seeing Silas Stone before your divorce?"
"Why did you hit your ex-mother-in-law?"

Ivy pushed through the horde of reporters outside Laurent Bridal Store, with the help of Bud and a few security guards. The loud wail of an ambulance siren cut through the chaos as Monica held her arm, guiding her through the crowd.
