Anastasia didn’t beat around the bush She understood Demi’s intentions, went along with it, and also used it as a chance to nip Cason’s ideas in the bud Her frankness left Monica with no room to salvage the situation
Cason shot Monica a look, his eyes asking what was going on. Monica hadn’t spilled the beans about Anastasia’s marriage before.
Monica was at her wits end Anastasia’s wedding was news to her too. As an onlooker, it wasn’t her place to comment.
The folks at the table shared awkward glances, waiting for Cason’s reaction. Cason held onto his drink tightly, feeling quite bummed, and took a big gulp. A classmate joked, trying to break the ice, “Anastasia, how come you didn’t tell us all about your wedding? That’s pretty low, don’t you think? You think we’re beneath you or something?
