Just when it seemed like things couldn't get any crazier, Lisa's antics hit a whole new level, totally out of control. With a huff, she reluctantly left the restaurant. Leah picked up the family register and approached Chloe, saying, "I'm sorry, I dropped the ball on this one."
Chloe's response was cool, "I'll get a new register. But I'm moving my registration out of the Meadows family."
Connor was about to leave, but Chloe said, "I need to grab something from my room." She led him to her room, and he kept that icy demeanor the whole time.
Once the door was closed, Chloe tried to calm him down, "Come on, don't be mad. You're not as handsome when you're fuming." She even playfully scratched his chin.
Connor let out a deep sigh, "I was planning to get the marriage license on Monday."
"I know."
"And I picked out my sharpest shirt, had it flown in from Italy."
"I know."
"I even posted about it. Matt and Marc said they'd throw us a party Monday night."
"That... I actually didn't know."
Connor flopped onto the bed, clearly annoyed, "I even teased them about being single. If they find out I didn't get married—well, didn't get the license—they're gonna give me hell."
"Why were you teasing them about being single?"
