Jeanie Harper and June Goodwin.
Jeanie says, "No! We haven't been in touch for a long time!"
June laughs, "If it were me, I wouldn't go either. We haven't spoken in years, and suddenly she's reaching out because she's engaged? She just wants our money!"
Jeanie asks, "Isn't that a bit narrow-minded?"
June scoffs, "I'm just calling it like I see it!"
Jeanie shakes her head. "Emily isn't like that!"
June's eyes dart around as she prods, "We were classmates. Since Emily is getting engaged, why don't we all crash the party to show our support?"
Another chimes in, "I haven't talked to Emily Sullivan in years. Why should I rush over to give her a wedding gift?"
June smirks, her narrow eyes gleaming. "We're going to show support, give her some face. Who said anything about giving money? Besides, we can see what kind of rich guy our Ivy League graduate snagged."
The others realize June just wants to watch Emily make a fool of herself. Some act hesitant. "Is that a good idea?"
Jeanie says flatly, "I'd suggest you guys drop it."
June dismisses her. "It's an engagement, not a wedding. We don't have to bring cash. If we show up to support her, Emily might even be grateful!"
The others quickly agree and start asking where the hotel is.
Jeanie knows they aren't going to support an old classmate. They want to mock Emily and feel superior.
Disgusted, she stands up. "You guys chat. I have things to do. I'm leaving."
She turns and leaves without waiting for a reply.
Though she and Emily hadn't spoken in years, they used to be friends. Even if they drifted apart, there's no need to kick someone when they're down.

This was soooooo sooooo good! I loved it! Thank you for the updates....
Then Melanie and Noreen will both understand that Emily is his wife, who he chooses and cares to be with. We’ve already had so much drama when Emily took off for three years hiding her pregnancy from Charlie. Emily has already confessed that the only man she loves is Kya father, which Charlie is. Now he needs to boldly claim the only woman he loves is Emily…I just had to add my two cents (he he he)....
Now Charlie needs to take Emily to the marriage office like Gabriel did with Sylvia . Reassure her that he will not take for granted. Thank you for the updates. I’m loving it....
