Life Without You (2016)
““Apparently, Annabelle played a pretty powerful hand in making Vivi’s daddy—who, by the way, was apparently not married to the fair, sweet Azalea—turn tail and run before Vivi was born. They were almost to the altar, actually,” I said, trying to keep all the details straight as I relayed them to my sister later that evening.
“So what happened? And is it just me, or does it seem like Annabelle has a certain gift for sabotaging weddings?”
“No, it’s not just you. I had that thought, too, but suppo...sedly she’s only on record for wrecking two. Not that that’s not enough,” I added quickly. “And from what Annabelle said, she just strongly suggested that he might want to consider the benefits of starting a new life above the Mason-Dixon line and what having a wife and a new baby would do to his budding career as a lowlife. Which I suppose means that she saw the writing on the wall with that one and decided her best friend would only suffer from marrying the guy.”
“And let me guess, Azalea didn’t have the easiest time seeing Annabelle’s preemptive strike as a good thing,”MoreLess
