She didn’t spare Marilyn any face and said bluntly, “Marilyn, are you sick again?”

“You and the Lynn family–always sucking her dry, and shamelessly trying to grab her house and jewelry. Why would Adeline want to humiliate herself and be your bridesmaid?”
When Grace and the others learned Lily was pregnant, they’d been happier than if they’d made
billions.
But hearing that Marilyn was pregnant, they felt as if the sky had fallen.
The thought that Marilyn might give birth to some freak and forever bind that freak to Victor made them sick at heart.
Grace hadn’t known about the feud between the Zach and Lynn families before. Hearing Lily’s words, she realized Marilyn had asked Adeline to be her bridesmaid purely to needle her.
Grace didn’t look at Marilyn. She frowned at Victor. “Are you really going to marry Marilyn?”
Victor didn’t want to.
But Marilyn and the child in her womb were responsibilities he couldn’t shirk—so he had to marry her.
He lowered his eyelids slightly, hiding every emotion beneath, and said, “Yes.”
“Ugh…” Grace’s breath hitched.
Henry slammed the table hard. “Foolish!”
“That Marilyn has repeatedly insulted Lily and stolen so many things from her. Her character is seriously flawed! She’s a homewrecker. If you really marry her, she’ll make the Luke family a mess! If you want to marry her, you’ll have to step over my corpse first!”

“Yeah, you can’t marry Marilyn.” Ivan, afraid Victor would leap into the fire, urged, “Better to stay single for life than marry her!”
James, outwardly calm but inwardly protective, had investigated Marilyn and knew her private life wasn’t clean.
He didn’t erupt like Henry; instead he said flatly, “Victor, you can be responsible for Marilyn and the child, but only after the child is born and a paternity test confirms it.”
“Right–do a paternity test before you marry!”
Nancy nodded approvingly at her eldest son and added, “Otherwise your father and I will take back every share we transferred to you, and the property your grandparents gave you—you’ll give it all back. Don’t come home after that!”
“Grandpa, Dad, Mom-” Marilyn was both furious and frightened; her eyes and nose reddened.
