Lillian couldn't be bothered to explain any further. She simply retrieved the marriage certificate from her bag. "Take a look at this."

As everyone laid eyes on the marriage certificate, their smiles once again froze.

A sense of foreboding crept into Evelyn's heart. She quickly opened the certificate and couldn't deny the truth staring back at her.
