Chapter 104

Tears welled up in Juliet's eyes, rendering her speechless. The reality of her grandson's impending matrimony was a stark reminder of her advancing years.

"Of course," Ariel began, his voice trailing off, "The wedding is scheduled in two months. And as you know, weddings are expensive affairs. There's the car, the house, the dowry, and the banquet. It all adds up." Juliet's suspicions were confirmed, "So, this is a shakedown, isn't it?"
