"Sister-in-law?" Charles Prescott asked. "Ethan Linden has already said he's going to marry Anne Sutton. Don't you think it's ridiculous to call her that?"
"And isn't that your fault?" Stella Shields said. "You had the chance to marry Anne Sutton, so why didn't you? If you had married her, would any of this be happening?"
If you two were together, Nathan Fawcett wouldn't want to see Anne Sutton again.
Much less run off to Westhaven.
Just thinking about it made Stella Shields furious!
"If I'd married her, wouldn't I have been a laughingstock?" Charles Prescott said.
Stella Shields looked at Charles Prescott, realizing his excessive pride was what had ruined everything. She shot back, "So what about now? Ethan Linden is trying to take everything the Fawcett Family owns from you. I suppose you're not a laughingstock now?"
"He can't take away everything the Fawcett Group has," Charles Prescott said.
