Milena's POV
There are times I despise my family and this is one of the moments. I don't understand why I am still standing after the heartfelt apology I just gave and it wasn't just me; three of us actually.
Did Julian's mother just organize an etiquette class for me? She's simply saying I don't have good manners meaning my parents didn't raise me well.
Can't they see through that devious smile? She's playing them. Something tells me Julian isn't going to rescue me from his mother's claws.
I'm on my own...
" Apology accepted. It was nothing if I didn't know better I would have said it was expected considering the unorthodox notice. They didn't know each other.. so, it's forgotten" Mr. Van Connor said smiling at me. It seems he's the only sane person in the family as far as I'm concerned.
Julian doesn't talk much. It's either that or he's still mad at me. Mrs. Helen holds her glass while holding hands with her husband.
